The race to protect Jamaal Bowman’s congressional seat continues to heat up as we approach the June Democratic primary.

Justice Democrats

John,

Once again, Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s primary challenger is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. This week, it was revealed that a Wall Street bank fraudster who embezzled millions of dollars is now fundraising for George Latimer, who’s also received $600,000 from right-wing megadonor-fueled AIPAC and its super PAC.

While Latimer continues to take money from toxic donors, a new poll shows that a vast majority of NY-16 voters stand with Jamaal in supporting a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and disapprove of far-right Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Nearly 70% of voters prefer a candidate who supports a ceasefire, and Jamaal has been fighting for one since October while Latimer pushes Netanyahu’s and AIPAC’s dangerous talking points.

The difference between these two candidates couldn’t be more clear. That’s why we need to keep a true representative of the people like Jamaal in Congress fighting for peace, justice, and progress. This is slated to be one of the most competitive Democratic primaries in the country, and Latimer has a dark money war chest behind him — but Jamaal has you.

If we come together now and rally behind Jamaal, we can defend his seat and keep a progressive champion in Congress fighting for his constituents and human rights at large.
