John,

While AIPAC spends $100 million in attempts to unseat progressive Squad members in their Democratic primaries this year, the anti-Palestinian lobby group is also rewarding Republicans for funding the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

The Intercept: After House Speaker Mike Johnson pushed through Israel aid package, AIPAC cash came flowing in. The pro-Israel lobby donated around $95,000 to Johnson after he led the House passage of an extra $14 billion for Israel.

A new report from The Intercept reports that AIPAC was GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson’s biggest donor in 2023. After he led the passage of $14 billion in additional aid to Israel, Johnson received a $95,000 campaign contribution from AIPAC last November.

AIPAC is using their money and influence to play both sides in Washington: they’re giving money to right-wing extremists like Johnson while simultaneously trying to shape Democratic primary elections by running moderates against progressive incumbents who refuse to do their bidding.

We’ve taken them on and won before, and we need to do it again. Will you make a grassroots donation of $3 or more to help Justice Democrats fight back against AIPAC’s attacks and re-elect the Squad this year?

In solidarity,
