Democratic mayors in red states launch new group to counter MAGA and far-left extremes
The coalition will build fundraising, polling and paid-media infrastructure as 15 Democratic mayors seek a post-2024 message.
- Led by Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb, the new organization 'Blue Cities/Red States' launches next week in Miami with a kickoff hosted by Mayor Eileen Higgins, representing 15 Democratic mayors governing more than 7 million Americans across 11 red and purple states.

- Heading into the 2026 and 2028 cycles, the organization plans a permanent national platform, fundraising infrastructure, and paid-media strategy while Bibb coordinates with members of Congress on legislative alignment.
- Acknowledging that the 'blue wall' doesn't exist anymore, organizers emphasize moving beyond party extremes to prove Democratic leaders can effectively govern in red and purple political environments.
