Dear Friend,

We're thrilled today to introduce our next round of congressional
endorsements. No matter what happens with the presidential primary, we
can't stop building power in Congress. (And I know everyone is thinking
about Iowa right now, but some of these elections are coming up fast, so
they need our support now.)

Check out these five great candidates below, and [ [link removed] ]please chip in what
you can to their races:

Mondaire Jones (NY-17): Mondaire was born in his district, and raised in
Section 8 housing by a single mom who worked multiple jobs. He earned a
Stanford BA, worked at the Department of Justice, graduated from Harvard
Law School, founded a nonprofit, and then returned home to work as an
attorney in Westchester County. He’s running on a platform that includes
Medicare for All, universal child care, student debt forgiveness, and the
Green New Deal. He’s endorsed by Democracy for America, Collective PAC,
the Victory Fund -- and Elizabeth Warren! He's running in a crowded
primary for an open blue seat (the previous Democrat, Rep. Nita Lowey,
decided to retire.) The primary is June 23. [ [link removed] ]Chip in $3 to Mondaire
here.

Georgette Gómez (CA-53): Georgette is a first generation American, the
daughter of immigrants. As she says, she had "the privilege of documents"
and her parents did not, and as a result, she saw how much they struggled
against the system. She spent a decade as a community organizer working on
environmental justice, land use decisions and the impacts of heavy
industry, and then became the first queer Latina member of the San Diego
city council, where she chairs the transit system and put forward a
resolution against the border wall. She is endorsed by the California
Democratic Party, the California Federation of Teachers, SEIU, and UNITE
HERE. She's running in a primary for an open blue seat (the previous
Democrat, Rep. Susan Davis, is also retiring). The primary is March 3.

Mike Siegel (TX-10): Mike is a former union organizer, public school
teacher, and an Austin city attorney who took on Texas Republicans to
demand gun reforms. As a civil rights lawyer he also sued employers on
behalf of women who experienced discrimination in the workplace and
whistleblowers who suffered retaliation. Mike is endorsed by local and
national unions, and by the Sunrise Movement for his commitment to the
Green New Deal. Mike is running in a competitive primary to take on
Republican incumbent Michael McCaul. Mike is the only one who can finish
the job and flip this district. (Mike nearly beat McCaul last cycle — with
no institutional support.) Now, he needs your help. The primary is March
3. [ [link removed] ]Chip in $3 to Mike here.

Candace Valenzuela (TX-24): Candace grew up in a military family that
struggled financially, and for a time, they were homeless. She went on to
become an educator, and then was the first Latina and African-American
woman elected to her local school board. Candace is endorsed by Elizabeth
Warren! One of our training alums, she’s running in a primary in TX-24,
one of the most flippable races in the country in 2020 to take on
Republican incumbent Kenny Marchant. The primary is March 3. [ [link removed] ]Chip in $3
to Candace here.

Jon Hoadley (MI-06): Jon is running against Fred Upton, former chair of
the Energy Committee and one of the worst Republicans on climate. Jon is
one of the few openly gay members of the Michigan state legislature and
has been a champion for progressive issues throughout his career. He
supports Medicare for All, expanding Social Security, and the Green New
Deal. [ [link removed] ]Chip in $3 to Jon here.

We take seriously the endorsements that we make. We've vetted each of
these campaigns with questionnaires and interviews.

We've seen with our own eyes what a difference it's made in Congress over
the last few years, as progressive superstars like Katie Porter, Deb
Haaland, and Andy Levin have lead the way pushing the Democratic caucus to
be tougher and better on climate, financial regulation and oversight over
Trump. It's working. [ [link removed] ]Let's keep growing their numbers.

Thanks for being a bold progressive,

-- Stephanie Taylor, PCCC co-founder


Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told PCCC members, "The majority of Americans are with us on the policies. Americans support Medicare for All, expanding Social Security benefits, gun reform, debt-free college, and a $15 minimum wage. Bold progressive values are popular EVERYWHERE. Together, we have the people. Together, with your help, we’ll have the votes." Chip in $3 here: [link removed]
