John,

My campaign for Congress challenged the conventional wisdom that you have
to uncritically support Israel’s government in order to win U.S.
elections. I’ve joined other progressives in Congress who are unafraid to
speak out for Palestinian human rights, and to hold our government
accountable for its complicity in apartheid.

Our advocacy reflects a shift in Democratic voters, the majority of whom
sympathize with Palestinians and don’t want our taxpayer dollars to fund
human rights abuses.

As we’ve built power, anti-Palestinian lobbying group AIPAC is mobilizing
against us. In 2022, AIPAC created its first-ever PAC and a SuperPAC
called the United Democracy Project. Along with the Democratic Majority
for Israel, these groups spent $41 million to defeat progressives in
2022’s election cycle.

Pro-Trump billionaires poured millions of dollars into these PACs, in
order to shape the Democratic Party in primaries and support Republicans
against Democrats in general elections. In addition to this
anti-democratic work, AIPAC PAC keeps endorsing insurrectionist
Republicans.

Democrats need to recognize that AIPAC is an anti-democratic group, and
reject support from AIPAC. That’s how we take back our power and refuse to
be silenced when it comes to speaking out against injustice.

take money from AIPAC PAC or its network of PACs. Reject endorsements and
funding from these right-wing, anti-democratic groups.

More people are recognizing that AIPAC and its connected PACs are out of
alignment with the Democratic Party, Democratic voters, and democracy
itself.

After a Democratic candidate for Congress in North Carolina took donations
from and embraced support from the AIPAC PAC, the North Carolina
Democratic Party’s Progressive Caucus rescinded their endorsement of her.

The Caucus wrote: “We stand by our progressive American values of
democracy and human rights for all.”

If we truly support democracy, human rights, justice, and equity, that
means we have to take a stand for Palestinian rights. That may make us
targets and anger those who want to maintain the unjust status quo. But we
can’t let that stop us.

support from AIPAC?

Thank you for continuing to expand what’s possible as we build the world
our communities need and deserve.

With love,

Rep. Cori Bush
