John,
AIPAC is planning to spend $20 million against Jamaal Bowman in the next month.
The anti-Palestinian group’s super PAC just spent $2 million for one week’s worth of attack ads targeting Jamaal, who has been an outspoken leader for Palestinians’ human rights. Jamaal joined me early on in demanding a permanent ceasefire. He recognizes that the U.S. government is complicit in genocide, and he’s working to stop it.
With Jamaal’s re-election about a month away, MAGA Republican mega-donors are dropping millions to support his opponent through AIPAC.
AIPAC recruited Jamaal’s anti-ceasefire opponent, and has even encouraged Republicans to register as Democrats in order to vote for Jamaal’s opponent—carrying out a pattern of interfering in Democratic primaries to take down Black and brown progressives.
Can you split a donation today between my and Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s re-election campaigns so we can withstand AIPAC’s attacks? Jamaal’s primary is just a few weeks away!
In 2022’s midterm elections, AIPAC and its network of PACs spent $40 million against Black and brown progressives, with most of the funds coming from Trump-supporting GOP mega-donors.
AIPAC also endorsed more than 100 insurrectionist members of Congress who voted to overturn 2020’s election. These anti-democratic legislators are trying to censor discussions of racism in schools and ban diversity initiatives in public education.
Meanwhile, Rep. Jamaal Bowman has introduced urgent legislation to support African American history education, and he’s bringing us closer to a multi-racial democracy where we all have equal rights protected by the government.
For years, Jamaal has called to condition U.S. funding for Israel’s military based on Palestinians’ human rights. After visiting my grandmother in the West Bank, he compared Palestinians’ lives under Israeli military control to his experience with racist U.S. police targeting Black people like him.
Jamaal and I understand that marginalized people’s struggles are intertwined, and we want to make our government work for all of us—not just the privileged few. Instead of voting to send billions of American taxpayer dollars to Israel’s apartheid regime, Jamaal is pushing to invest in our communities’ needs, like public education and utility services.
Since he’s up against billionaires who’ll spend a lot to continue the unjust status quo, Jamaal needs support from our grassroots movement between now and his state’s June 25th Democratic primary election.
Can you chip in today to re-elect Jamaal Bowman to Congress so he can keep leading on human rights for Palestinians and for all people? Let’s send the message that we won’t let Republican donors buy Democratic elections.
