John,

A new poll from Data for Progress once again shows that a majority of ALL voters, including 76% of Democrats, support a ceasefire and think we should only send military funding to Israel if they meet human rights conditions.

There may be division in our country, but it’s clear that most people stand united against genocide and the U.S. government’s financial support for it.

Despite the overwhelming support for a permanent ceasefire and the release of all Israeli and Palestinian hostages, only 11% of Congress has stood on the right side of history on this issue, including every member of the Squad.

Thanks to the courageous leadership of our Justice Democrats incumbents like Cori Bush, Rashida Tlaib, Jamaal Bowman, Summer Lee, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and AOC, in addition to the hard work of pro-peace organizers across the country, the momentum for a ceasefire continues to grow day by day.

We started with only 18 cosponsors of Cori and Rashida’s ceasefire resolution; today, there are 60 members of Congress backing it, and organizations like the United Auto Workers and Doctors Without Borders have joined us.

It’s clear where the people stand on this issue, and how strong of a grip Republican billionaire-funded, anti-Palestinian groups like AIPAC have on both sides of the aisle in Washington.

Our bloc of young, Black and brown, working-class, progressive champions are facing unprecedented attacks in these months leading up to the Democratic primary elections, including $100 million in AIPAC spending against them. We need to have their backs.

Please, if you’re able to, pitch in a grassroots donation of $3 or more today to help re-elect Justice Democrats incumbents and keep our progressive movement alive in 2024 →

Contribute $3

Outside groups funded by GOP mega-donors think they can defeat us next year and maintain the status quo. Let’s show them what we’re made of.

In solidarity,

Alexandra Rojas
Executive Director
