John,

Something sinister is taking place. AIPAC and their allies are targeting and trying to intimidate Black and Brown women candidates across the country, threatening to spend against them if they even slightly criticize Israel's far-right, apartheid policies.

A new billionaire-backed Super PAC is targeting and spending heavily against a progressive City Councilwoman in Brooklyn, New York. Another candidate in Arizona is being attacked for voting against a bill that identifies criticism of Israel's government as antisemitic.

AIPAC is a right-wing group. They supported Donald Trump, endorsed 106 insurrection Republicans, and spent millions to defeat progressives such as Jessica Cisneros and Summer Lee.

Let’s be clear: AIPAC has lost the public opinion battle, all they have left is threats and the ability to spend big against progressives who speak out in support of Palestinian human rights. And spending money against a candidate who doesn’t even have an opponent clearly escalates their threats.

We have no other option but to fight back against AIPAC, support our incumbents who are taking brave stances in support of Palestinian human rights, and recruit and elect even more candidates who will do the same.

We wouldn’t be reaching out to ask if it wasn’t crucial for the future of Justice Democrats and our candidates. Will you rush a $3 contribution right now to help us fight back against AIPAC?

No matter what, thank you for being a part of this team.
