Future Forum PAC Calls Yesterday’s Results a Mandate for a New Generation of Leadership in Washington

Group Applauds 25 Endorsed Candidates Victories

Washington D.C.- After yesterday’s sweeping election results, Future Forum PAC, the political arm of the generational caucus of young House Democrats focused on elevating the issues of young Americans, released the following statement:

“Gen Z sent a message loud and clear: they need an economy that works for them, not just billionaires and corrupt political leaders. 

“Early exit poll data shows that compared to 2024, young people are abandoning Donald Trump and his Republican allies in droves. They are tired of the sluggish job market, high costs, and compounding student debt that has prevented them from having the same opportunities as older generations.

“Their effort sends a mandate to the incoming 120th Congress. Young Americans demand leaders who take their concerns seriously and deliver an economic agenda built for their future. Gen Z and young people deserve more than just a passing mention; they need an active voice and a seat at the table.

“The young people endorsed by Future Forum, the same people who delivered a Democratic House majority, will be those leaders. 

“We applaud our 25 endorsed candidates on their hard-earned victories, including:

  • Rebecca Bennett in NJ-07

  • Mitchell Berman in WI-01

  • Daniel Biss in IL-09

  • Adrian Boafo in MD-05

  • Jasmine Clark in GA-13

  • Paige Cognetti in PA-08

  • Cait Conley in NY-17
