#EmergeAlum State Sen. Julie Pazina (NV-12) is one of Nevada's most effective legislators. In her first term, she passed more bills than any other freshman legislator, and in 2025, the Las Vegas Review-Journal ranked her the state's second most successful legislator!

Two Emerge women. One historic ticket. If elected, #EmergeAlums Molly Gray and Amanda Janoo of Vermont would be first all-Emerge governor and lieutenant governor in history. This powerhouse duo has what it takes to win the general. 💪🍁

Monday was Labor Day, so we want to continue the celebration by spotlighting three #EmergeAlums who represent and show up for workers every single day. Unions do not happen without organizing, and neither does change. So, here are 3 Emerge alums who are proudly pro-union and putting in the work! 💪

#EmergeAlum @sarahforiowa.bsky.social is willing to fight for the people she aims to represent, and that’s the type of leader voters are searching for. This district race becoming so competitive is a testament to what happens when we invest in putting the right people in the right races.
