JOHN,

We don’t need more millionaires in Congress who can self-finance their campaigns. We need regular working people who understand the needs of their constituents.

Right now, the vast majority of Americans support a ceasefire, and they don't want to see their tax dollars go to more war. Many of our communities still don't have clean water, and most families are living paycheck to paycheck, deciding between paying medical bills or putting food on the table. Many are on the brink of homelessness.

We need elected leaders who don’t take money from corporations, who represent their constituents as public servants, and who are not afraid to stand up to the unjust status quo. That’s why I created my Rooted in Community Leadership PAC―to train, support, and elect these leaders.

Already, anti-Palestinian group AIPAC has pledged to spend $100 million in an attempt to defeat members of Congress who’ve been leading our ceasefire movement. Our allies in local offices, state legislatures, and Congress need our support!

Can you make an end-of-year donation to my Rooted in Community Leadership PAC today? We can help dismantle the unjust status quo, make sure our government represents marginalized people, and create communities where everyone feels safe and has their needs met.

Last year, right-wing group AIPAC and their affiliated PACs spent about $10 million in Michigan and Pennsylvania alone, on attack ads and mailers to defeat progressive Rep. Andy Levin and to attempt to defeat me and now-freshman Rep. Summer Lee.

They spent $40 million total to defeat progressives in elections, and they’ll spend at least $100 million this year. They’ve already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in attack ads against me, Jamaal Bowman, and Summer Lee this month.

We’ve got to counter this money from far-right donors with grassroots fundraising. That’s how we can elect more progressive leaders at the local, state, and federal level who truly represent the people and who are advocating for the changes our communities desperately need.

Donate $5 or more to my Rooted in Community Leadership PAC today to help build a future where all of us can thrive and where we are truly represented by our political leaders.

Always serving you,
