With the 2026 midterms approaching, No Dem Left Behind has launched War Watch — our most ambitious research initiative yet. This project tracks where congressional candidates and incumbents stand on foreign policy, military intervention, and defense industry influence.

Our team will review campaign donations, voting records, and public statements to give voters a clear, fact-based picture of each candidate’s stance. Politicians aligned with war-promoting policies will be flagged as War Hawks, while those advocating diplomacy and restraint will be recognized as Candidates for Peace.

This initiative comes amid growing concern about the role of private defense money in American politics and the relative lack of accessible information about lawmakers' positions on war.

The goal is simple: provide transparent, unbiased information so voters can see who’s enabling endless war and who’s pushing for peace.
