Friends,
On January 6, Officer Harry Dunn donned his bulletproof vest and ran to the West Terrace of the Capitol Building.
The sight shocked him. Trump supporters assaulting bloodied officers with flagpoles and metal bike racks. Pepper spray heavy in the air. He rushed into the melee. For hours he fended off rioters, helped the injured, and endured an onslaught of racial abuse as he defended our democracy.
Now, he’s running for Congress to defend our democracy again – and J Street is thrilled to announce we’re endorsing this pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy American hero.
Harry Dunn leads the polls in the MD-3 primary to replace retiring Democratic Congressman John Sarbanes – but it won’t be easy. AIPAC’s SuperPAC, funded significantly by MAGA mega-donors, is projected to spend upwards of $3,500,000 (!) to defeat him.
Members of JStreetPAC – J Street's political fundraising arm – are coming together to make sure Dunn’s campaign has the resources to push back.

January 6 was a wake up call for the threat Donald Trump and his MAGA allies posed to our democracy. It’s still standing, thanks to the heroic efforts of folks like Dunn and his fellow officers.
In Congress, we know he’ll fight just as hard for our democratic values and be a champion for our pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy movement. We’re proud to be strong supporters of his campaign, and to be pushing back against the AIPAC-led flood of MAGA money into Democratic primaries.
