John,
Multiple sources say moderate Democrat and Westchester County Executive George Latimer is planning to run against Justice Democrats incumbent Jamaal Bowman in 2024.
We knew this was coming: AIPAC has been busy recruiting a candidate to challenge Jamaal for months, and their super PAC recently launched attack ads against him. It seems they have succeeded in recruiting a moderate, white, career politician who we know will take us backward.
Jamaal’s seat is at risk because of his progressive record as well as his courage to call for a ceasefire and stand up for his fellow Squad member Rashida Tlaib in their collective fight for human rights.
According to Axios, Jamaal is the Squad member “facing the biggest threat” of losing his seat next year. We can’t let the moderate establishment succeed.
Thanks for anything you can give to have Jamaal’s back.

Do not worry if you cannot afford to make a contribution — we understand that this is a difficult time. There are other ways to make an impact in support of peace and equality in Israel and Palestine: please urge your member of Congress to support a ceasefire through Adalah Justice Project’s petition or by calling them using Jewish Voice for Peace’s dialer here. Your voice matters in this critical moment. |
