Dear Friend
I’m writing today to introduce you to my friend Jason Call, a former public high school teacher and union leader, and a lifelong anti-war and climate activist.
Jason is running for Congress in Washington’s 2nd congressional district with the Green Party. This is a very competitive district for the Greens, and with Jason leading the charge, it's an actually winnable race. I’m so excited to partner with this game-changing campaign.
Together, we have the chance to make history next year. Read on below to learn more, and please join me in supporting Jason’s run!
Thank you,
A message for you from Jason Call:
Friend,
I’ve lived in Washington’s 2nd district for nearly half my life. Over the years, local progressives have tried repeatedly to engage our Congressman on the issues that matter to our community. I was one of them.
As a lifelong antiwar and climate activist, an organizer, a former elected union leader, and a public school teacher, I’ve had a frontline view of the challenges working families are up against.
I tried to bring those challenges to Rep. Rick Larsen, both as a constituent and as a member of the state Democratic Party leadership.
The years that my fellow progressives and I tried engaging with the Congressman, we just kept hitting a brick wall. It turns out, that wall was made of money – and the Democratic Party BUILT the damned thing.
I primaried Rick Larsen in 2020 and 2022. Despite the struggles of campaigning during a once-in-a-century pandemic, our scrappy grassroots campaign fell just shy of winning our spot in Washington’s nonpartisan, “top two” primary.
I am the closest challenger Rick Larsen has ever had, and the Green Party’s best chance to take this seat from a career corporate Democrat and get our first Green Party member elected to Congress. Will you support our 100% grassroots-funded campaign with a contribution today?
<[link removed]>Elect Jason Call - Green for Congress <[link removed]>Since 2022, I’ve come to accept that Rick Larsen is not just a corrupt Democrat – he’s a typical one. His inaction and unwillingness to listen are trademarks of today’s corporate-backed Democratic Party.
Had I been in office these past few years, I would have done everything possible to bring universal healthcare to the table, make the child tax credit permanent, end corporate price-gouging, stop Biden from issuing more drilling permits to Big Oil, and end the genocide in Gaza.
Democrats didn’t just fail to act on these issues – they didn’t even try.
Like Larsen, Congress will not listen to us, no matter which party is steering the ship. Their deaf ears are a symptom of the corporate greed that fuels both parties.
At the urging of my community and my party, I am once again running for Congress. But this time, I’m a registered member of the Green Party of Washington State – a party that will work WITH ME to bring real working class representation to Washington D.C.
<[link removed]>Elect Jason Call - Green for Congress <[link removed]>I am running to pass Medicare for All, to fight for urgent climate action, and to oversee the fundamental transformation of our economy with a REAL Green New Deal. And unlike my opponent, I’ve never taken a dime of corporate PAC money – and I never will.
WHEN (not if) we win this seat, we are going to make history. I will be the first member of the Green Party elected to federal office, and a genuine independent, unbought, working class voice in Congress.
Now I’m excited to partner with Dr. Jill Stein’s campaign for president, and I look forward to serving alongside her in Washington D.C.
The past two cycles, my district proved that a real insurgent base of voters in Northwest Washington is ready for fundamental political change.
I hope you are, too, Friend, because this campaign won’t just mark the end of Rick Larsen’s time in Congress. The entire two-party system is about to get a wakeup call.
In solidarity,
Jason
