John, when the Democratic Party tells folks to vote, it's missing a big part of the story.
We can’t just vote our way out of a broken status quo in General Elections. Because solving the crises of our day will require organizing, fighting, and electing BETTER Democrats — not just the same old Democrats.
Nancy Pelosi supported anti-choice Democrat Henry Cuellar in a primary against pro-choice progressive Justice Democrat Jessica Cisneros. In the face of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, the Democratic establishment did nothing but tell us to vote.
We can’t keep voting for corporate-backed incumbents unwilling to fight for our rights.
Corporate Democrats have thrown millions against us, they've thrown high-powered endorsements against us…they’ll do whatever they can to stop us — even if that means using resources to stop progressive change instead of focusing those critical resources to stop Republicans from taking the majority in Congress.
If we want to win more primary challenges and protect the Squad while we’re up against millions in corporate Super PAC spending and endorsements from corporate Democrats like Nancy Pelosi, we need our grassroots supporters to step up.
We need to make sure we’re prepared to protect the Squad in their primaries and build up our fundraising for the future so we can continue building our bloc in Congress.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
