John,
Not one but TWO potential candidates have come forward to claim that they were offered $20 million in campaign support by a major AIPAC donor to challenge Rep. Rashida Tlaib in a Democratic primary.1
Rashida has been a strong voice for justice and equality in Washington and has never been afraid to speak truth to power. That’s exactly why she now finds herself targeted by Republican billionaires and Super PACs who would love nothing more than to take her down.
We are proud to endorse Rashida Tlaib for re-election. She’s been a relentless champion for the people of her district in Michigan and a fighter for working people across the country — and we can’t afford to lose her voice.
Can you split a donation of $10 or any amount between Rashida Tlaib’s campaign and WFP? Every contribution will help us fight back against right-wing attacks and make sure she can keep fighting for working people in Michigan and across the country.

Since becoming one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress in 2018, Rashida Tlaib has been a consistent champion for working families in her district and nationwide.
She’s taken on powerful special interests and stood side-by-side with workers, including autoworkers during the historic UAW strike this year.
She’s fought for big investments in healthcare, climate solutions like a Green New Deal, and a government that works for everyday people, rather than corporations and billionaires.
And she has sought to hold our government accountable for policies that undermine democracy and peace — advocating for a foreign policy based on international law, human rights, and diplomacy.
Republican billionaires and Super PACs like AIPAC are planning to spend $100 million or more to defeat Rashida and other progressive leaders in Congress next year2 — all in order to engineer a MAGA takeover of Congress and the White House.
We need to prepare right now if we’re going to have what we need to fight back.
If you can, please make a split contribution of $10 or any amount between Rashida Tlaib’s campaign and WFP now.
Now more than ever, the people of Michigan and the entire country can’t afford to lose her voice in Congress.
In solidarity,
Working Families Party
