John,

Conservative career politician George Latimer is trying to unseat
progressive champion Rep. Jamaal Bowman in New York’s 16th congressional
district with the help of Trump-supporting MAGA Republicans and dark money
super PACs.

AIPAC’s super PAC United Democracy Project, which is mostly funded by GOP
megadonors, dropped nearly $2 million on ads attacking Jamaal and
supporting Latimer last week.

AIPAC’s network has focused on defeating Black and brown progressives like
Jamaal, and it’s becoming clearer that race is playing a key role in this
effort to oust the first Black representative of NY-16 in Congress.

During an interview on a Trump donor’s radio show, Latimer claimed
Jamaal’s 2020 victory was partially due to the unrest surrounding George
Floyd’s murder by police and to higher voter turnout thanks to the surge
of mail-in ballots during the pandemic, which he said “skewed results.”

This so-called Democratic candidate for Congress is implying that a
majority non-white district’s desire for racial justice and higher voter
turnout in a Democratic primary is a bad thing. That in and of itself
should be disqualifying.

Like Jamaal said, “When more people vote, our democracy is stronger.
George Latimer sounds less like a Democrat and more like the MAGA
extremists trying to take away the rights of Black and brown voters.”

[ [link removed] ]Will you stand with Jamaal, a true Democrat and representative of the
people, by fueling Justice Democrats’ efforts to re-elect him next month
with a grassroots contribution now?

To make matters worse, a Republican donor supporting Latimer at a
fundraising event hosted by a GOP megadonor said she wants a
representative who isn’t just for “his people” or “Black justice.”

The racism runs deep in this campaign, as the racist dog whistles continue
and Latimer and his supporters say the quiet part out loud.

Jamaal is a progressive champion for ALL, including those historically
suppressed or ignored by those in power. We can’t lose his moral courage
and commitment to justice to another corrupt, old, white Republican
role-playing as a Democrat.

[ [link removed] ]This primary is just over a month away: will you help us fight back and
re-elect Jamaal using people-power by pitching in $5 or
more today?



[ [link removed] ]Contribute $5



We elected Jamaal in 2020 through the power of people like you, and that’s
exactly how we’ll defeat Latimer and his right-wing donors this June.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
