John, we're a little sad right now.

But let’s be clear: Jessica Cisneros exceeded all expectations against Trump’s favorite Democrat despite millions in dark money and corporate-funded negative attack ads against her.

This was a fight to prove a young woman with a whole community behind her could take on some of the most powerful corporate interests in our country.

Jessica went farther than nearly every other progressive challenger before her and lost by a slim margin — less than 3,000 votes.

This loss means we have to work twice as hard to elect Jamaal Bowman in NY-16 in his primary challenge against Eliot Engel who takes tons of corporate cash from the military industrial complex, as well as supporting all the other Justice Democrats like Marie Newman (IL-03) and Morgan Harper (OH-03) on March 17th.

Contribute $3 right now to help us take on the entrenched establishment and have the resources to fight harder than ever before to elect bold leaders like Jamaal Bowman in New York and Marie Newman in Illinois.

We are in a fight for the soul of the Democratic Party and we need your support in order to elect more diverse, working-class candidates who will fight for our values alongside Justice Democrats and The Squad in Congress.

We’re up against a lot this cycle. The DCCC decided to blacklist vendors that work for primary campaigns in order to hurt our candidates who are fighting for change.

Right now, our political system is set up to block progressive, working class women of color like Jessica. Nancy Pelosi and the Koch network poured in money last minute to help defeat Jessica, but the inspiring movement Jessica has built on the border was victorious in proving we’re within striking distance of bringing fundamental change. The corporate establishment is scared and desperate to hold onto their power.

After AOC’s victory over Joe Crowley two years ago, we don’t have the element of surprise and the party machine and corporate donors on the other side are fighting back hard. We need a grassroots movement of folks who are committed to transforming the Democratic Party to fight for voters, not corporate special interests.

Make a contribution right now to help us fight against the entrenched establishment and continue to push our movement forward.

Thank you so much for your support, I am honored to be in this fight for justice with you. I know that together we will continue to make progress for our communities. I am so honored to fight alongside Jessica Cisneros and the people of South Texas.

This is just the beginning for Jessica, and it’s certainly not the end of the movement we’ve built together in South Texas.

In solidarity,

Alexandra Rojas
