Phil Weiser for Colorado Governor
Phil Weiser has built a national reputation in his role as Colorado’s Attorney General as a leading state enforcer taking on corporate concentration and protecting consumers. Before entering elected office, Weiser served in the U.S. Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division and as a senior advisor on technology and innovation in the Obama White House, bringing deep expertise on competition policy and the digital economy. As attorney general, he has led and joined major multistate antitrust actions targeting monopoly power, including litigation against dominant technology companies and LiveNation-Ticketmaster, and has prioritized efforts to hold corporations accountable for anti-competitive conduct and consumer harm. He also led a state effort to successfully block the Kroger-Albertsons grocery store mega-merger. Through his work in Colorado and nationally, Weiser has advanced a vision of markets that are competitive, transparent, and accountable to the public—an approach he is now bringing to his campaign for governor.
Kris Mayes for Arizona Attorney General
Kris Mayes has emerged as a leading state enforcer challenging corporate abuses in digital markets, housing, and healthcare. A longtime public servant and former Arizona Corporation Commissioner, Mayes has brought a strong commitment to protecting consumers and restoring competition to her work as attorney general. Her office has pursued major cases against powerful corporations, including lawsuits against Amazon alleging deceptive “dark pattern” practices and anticompetitive conduct affecting sellers and prices on its platform. Mayes has also taken action against algorithmic rent-setting practices, worked to block the proposed Kroger–Albertsons grocery merger, and pushed for greater accountability from large agricultural and foreign investors over water use in Arizona. She has also initiated multiple cases against Arizona monopoly utilities for unfairly gouging consumers. Through these efforts, Mayes has positioned Arizona at the forefront of using state law to challenge monopoly power and protect consumers from corporate abuse.
Brian Schwalb for District of Columbia Attorney General
Brian Schwalb has been at the forefront of challenging corporate power and dominant monopolies in the nation’s capital. His office filed the first lawsuit against RealPage and corporate landlords for alleged algorithmic price-fixing in rental housing, setting off a wave of enforcement and legislative action across the country. He joined the coalition of states that won a jury trial against LiveNation-Ticketmaster, and also settled an independent case against Ticketmaster for unfair pricing practices, securing $8.9 million in refunds for District consumers. His office has consistently won judgments against corporations that engage in wage-theft and other labor violations, and has also held corporate landlords accountable for a range of abusive practices, all the while dealing with a federal government that is actively hostile to the District’s independence. Through this work, Schwalb has positioned D.C. as a city that puts the interests of working people ahead of those of corporate monopolies.
Keith Ellison for Minnesota Attorney General
Keith Ellison has built one of the nation’s most active records of challenging corporate power and defending consumers through state enforcement authority. Since taking office, Ellison has led or joined major multistate antitrust actions aimed at curbing monopoly power, including the bipartisan lawsuit accusing Google of illegally maintaining its search monopoly. His office has also pursued cases against corporations accused of price-fixing in industries ranging from poultry to generic pharmaceuticals. Ellison has paired aggressive enforcement with efforts to lower costs for families, including securing settlements with insulin manufacturers to cap insulin prices for Minnesotans. Through litigation, enforcement, and legislative partnerships, Ellison has positioned Minnesota as a national leader in the fight to hold powerful corporations accountable.
Letitia James for New York Attorney General
Letitia James has consistently stepped up to hold dominant corporations and the corrupt systems that enable them accountable. Her office played a key role in the successful case against Live Nation-Ticketmaster, as well as the winning lawsuit challenging Google’s ad tech monopoly. She was a part of the coalition that blocked the Nexstar-Tegna local news merger, and has launched an investigation of surveillance pricing practices. Her office has also played a key part in advancing new legislation in New York aimed at reining in deceptive business practices and preventing Big Tech platforms from using their power to addict children. James has shown that when the federal government consistently fails to rein in corporate power and protect working families, states can more than make up the difference.
Jane Kim for California Insurance Commissioner
Jane Kim has spent her career fighting to hold powerful institutions accountable and deliver for working families. A former San Francisco Supervisor and President of the Board of Education, Kim led major policy efforts including establishing free community college, raising the minimum wage, and expanding affordable housing requirements in one of the country’s most unequal cities. Now running for Insurance Commissioner, she has made confronting harmful industry practices a central focus of her campaign—arguing that rising premiums, coverage denials, and market exits demand stronger oversight and a regulator willing to stand up to corporate interests. Kim has proposed bold reforms to rein in excessive profits and expand access to coverage, including by providing natural disaster coverage for all California residents. Kim is committed to ensuring the insurance system works for Californians rather than large companies, positioning the office as a platform to take on corporate power and deliver real relief for families.
Javier Mabrey for Colorado House
Javier Mabrey represents Colorado House District 1 in southwest Denver and serves as chair of the House Judiciary Committee.

He has also been an early legislative voice against surveillance pricing, serving as a primary sponsor of Colorado’s 2025 bill to prohibit the use of surveillance data and automated decision systems to set individualized prices and wages, and as a sponsor of the 2026 follow-up effort to prohibit surveillance-based price and wage setting that passed the Colorado House. Mabrey also sponsored a 2025 bill to ban algorithmic rent-fixing in rental housing markets that passed the legislature before being vetoed by the governor.
Emma Greenman for Minnesota House
Emma Greenman represents Minnesota’s 63B House District in Minneapolis and has built a reputation as one of the legislature’s strongest advocates for protecting workers and strengthening labor standards. Before coming to the legislature, Greenman worked as a voting rights attorney and policy advocate, bringing a deep commitment to economic and democratic fairness to her work in the Capitol. She sponsored Minnesota’s 2024 junk fee law, as well as a statewide ban on non-compete agreements that was adopted in 2023, which made Minnesota the first state in a century to ban those anti-worker contracts. She has also championed key antitrust reforms, a ban on surveillance pricing, and a ban on nondisclosure agreements in economic development. Greenman also chaired the Minnesota Attorney General’s Worker Misclassification Task Force, which helped shape the state’s response to misclassification abuses affecting construction workers, gig workers, and others across the state.
Emérita Torres for New York Assembly
Emérita Torres represents New York’s 85th Assembly District in the South Bronx and came to Albany after years of anti-poverty and consumer-focused advocacy, including leadership at the Community Service Society of New York. Torres has emerged as a leading voice against AI-driven and surveillance-based pricing. In 2026, she introduced the One Fair Price Act, which would prohibit companies from using personal data to set individualized prices, and has paired that effort with public advocacy and convening work to build momentum for stronger consumer protections in New York. Through this work, Torres has sought to establish clear rules ensuring that technological innovation in the marketplace does not come at the expense of fairness and transparency for consumers.
Ben Bowman for Oregon House
Ben Bowman represents Oregon’s 25th House District and has emerged as a leading voice in the legislature on health care affordability and corporate accountability in the health system.

Through this work, Bowman has focused on advancing a health care system that prioritizes patients and families rather than the profit incentives of large corporate actors.
