John,
Have you seen this email from JVP Action PAC supporting me and Cori Bush as we advocate for Palestinian rights?
I’m honored to work for justice alongside my Jewish neighbors. Jewish Voice for Peace Action activists in my community and across the country are standing up to save lives. In Congress, my sister in service Cori Bush has been a crucial ally helping to grow the momentum to end U.S. complicity in Israel’s human rights abuses.
As the government of Israel increases violence against Palestinians, pro-apartheid groups are attacking us for speaking out. We cannot let up in our struggle for liberation and to hold the Israeli apartheid government accountable.
Can you split a donation today between my campaign and Cori Bush’s campaign so we can withstand attacks as we advocate for Palestinians’ human rights?

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Beth Miller at JVP Action PAC for Rashida Tlaib Date: Fri, Aug 4, 2023 Subject: Now is the time to show up for the members of Congress who are calling for a true end to U.S. complicity in Israeli apartheid. To: [email protected]
Dear John,
Cori Bush and Rashida Tlaib are two of the most consistent champions for Palestinian rights on Capitol Hill. Now, they’re being attacked for their bold stances—and we need to have their backs.
Time and time again, I have seen Rashida rise on the House floor to defend the basic humanity of her Palestinian community and family. Time and time again, I have seen Cori boldly and unapologetically condemn Israel’s apartheid government. I’ve been brought to tears seeing their bravery and solidarity.
It’s time to show up for Cori and Rashida. Will you split a donation between their campaigns today?
Recently, Cori and Rashida were part of a small group of progressives who opposed a horrible GOP resolution that denied Israeli apartheid and reaffirmed unconditional support for the government of Israel, despite its rapidly escalating violence against Palestinians. The next day, both congresswomen boycotted the speech of Israeli president Isaac Herzog, in protest of Israel’s racist policies.
Predictably, pro-apartheid groups like AIPAC have been coming for Cori and Rashida ever since. Especially as Jewish Americans, it’s crucial that we back our champions up as they face vicious smear campaigns from anti-Palestinian groups.
Now is the time to show up for the members of Congress who are calling for a true end to U.S. complicity in Israeli apartheid.
In solidarity,
Beth Miller Political Director, JVP Action PAC
P.S. Defend our champions—split a gift between Cori Bush and Rashida Tlaib's campaigns now.
