John,
The vast majority of Americans are crying out for a ceasefire and marching to say: “Not in our names and not with our tax dollars!” But they’re not being heard by most of their representatives in Congress.
Now anti-Palestinian group AIPAC is trying to further undermine democracy—planning to spend $100 million against me and fellow Squad members who are leading the movement in Congress for a ceasefire.
Please donate $5 or more today to counter AIPAC’s attacks and support my leadership as the only Palestinian American in Congress.
Like all human beings, Palestinians deserve to live and thrive.
When Members of Congress and pro-apartheid groups like AIPAC try to silence me for speaking up for Palestinians’ rights, they’re trying to maintain the unbearable status quo that treats Palestinians as less than human.
The U.S. is the biggest funder of Israel’s military, and our tax dollars are funding this genocide. Enough!
We will not be silenced. We cannot let AIPAC’s far-right Republican funders undermine the will of the American people.
Please donate $5
or more today to counter AIPAC’s attacks and support my leadership as the only Palestinian American in Congress.

Subject: BREAKING: Anti-Palestinian PAC will spend $100 MILLION to defeat me and the Squad

John,
Anti-Palestinian lobbying group AIPAC is planning to spend more than $100 MILLION in an attempt to unseat me and other Squad members in 2024.
Their front group already spent $100,000 on Islamophobic attack ads against me, targeting me for speaking up for a ceasefire.
As the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, my voice and perspective is needed here now more than ever.
Please chip in today so I can withstand AIPAC’s attacks. I don’t take any money from corporate PACs, so our re-election campaign relies on grassroots donations from people like you.
A new Reuters poll found that nearly 70% of Americans want a ceasefire. However, only 6% of us in Congress have called for a ceasefire.
Now AIPAC is set on ousting those of us who represent the vast majority of Americans—further subverting our democracy. Remember: AIPAC endorsed over 100 insurrectionist Republicans who tried to overturn 2020’s presidential election.
Funded largely by pro-Trump Republicans, AIPAC and its affiliated PACs spent over $40 million in last year’s elections to defeat progressive Democrats. That included more than $1 million to flood my district with misinformation and attack ads against me, in an attempt to mislead voters.
AIPAC’s tactics are an affront to democracy. We cannot let them undermine the will of the people, and we cannot let them silence our urgent call for a ceasefire.
Please donate $5 or more today to counter AIPAC’s attacks and support my leadership as the only Palestinian American in Congress.

Together, we will keep building the movement for Palestinians to live freely alongside Israelis, with human dignity and equal rights. Together, we will continue to advocate against oppression everywhere.
In solidarity,
Rashida
