You may be wondering why it matters that progressive Congressman Andy Kim stepped up to challenge Robert Menendez in New Jersey's U.S. Senate Democratic primary in 2024. Here's why:

NEW YORK TIMES: Menendez Indictment Appears to Undercut Claims of ‘Two-Tiered System’ of Justice

Republicans...repeatedly accused Attorney General Merrick B. Garland of singling out former President Donald J. Trump for selective prosecution, slamming him for what they call a “two-tiered system” of justice.

Forty-eight hours later, the Justice Department indicted one of the most powerful Democrats in the Senate — Bob Menendez of New Jersey, the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee — on bribery charges, making public a trove of evidence, including cash and gold bars stashed at his house.

Banishing Menendez means we have clean hands to prosecute the case against Trump corruption in the 2024 election.

The political world will be watching Andy Kim's fundraising numbers after tonight's FEC fundraising deadline to assess if Menendez can be defeated. If you want to help send a signal that voters oppose corruption, you can donate to Andy here.

Andy Kim flipped a Trump district in 2018. He served in the Obama State Department. He is a young dad.

Andy did something courageous. He was the first elected official in NJ to call for Menendez to resign and then announced he would give up his seat to run in a primary against a powerful senator who claims he "isn't going anywhere."

Andy's September 30th fundraising report will be looked at by many donors and activists as a signal of whether Menendez can be defeated. Early money to Andy now sends a strong signal that the public supports Andy's brave move.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
