John,
In case you missed it, yesterday we announced the newest Justice Democrat to join our slate of young, diverse, working-class progressive champions in Congress: Rep. Delia Ramirez of Illinois’ 3rd District.
This is our first endorsement of the 2024 election cycle, and it goes to show that in spite of AIPAC’s plans to spend $100 million against the Squad this year, our progressive movement keeps growing — and that’s directly because of people like you.
As The Intercept noted, “The choice to back Ramirez signals that Justice Democrats is doubling down its support for congressional progressives who won’t cave to the pro-Israel lobby, even as they face an onslaught of spending by groups like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC.”
AIPAC may be spending an unprecedented amount of right-wing mega-donor money to unseat the Squad and squash our fight for peace and human rights for Palestinians, but we’re not going to let that stop us or slow us down.
Thanks for making this work possible,
Geoff Simpson
Campaigns Director
Do not worry if you cannot afford to make a contribution — we understand that this is a difficult time. There are other ways to make an impact in support of peace and equality in Israel and Palestine: please urge your member of Congress to support a ceasefire through Adalah Justice Project’s petition or by calling them using Jewish Voice for Peace’s dialer here. Your voice matters in this critical moment. |
