John,
Progressive Rep. Cori Bush is being challenged for her seat in Congress by a moderate candidate who shares the same donors as Donald Trump and his new, MAGA vice president pick, JD Vance.
Former prosecutor Wesley Bell has taken tens of thousands of dollars in direct campaign contributions from Trump and Vance donors.
While Bell is running as a Democrat and claims he’ll protect abortion rights, the reality is he once worked for an anti-abortion Republican, and he shares donors with someone who appointed the Supreme Court justices that overturned Roe v. Wade, and a U.S. Senator who wants to see abortion banned even in cases of rape.
Bell is no champion of reproductive freedom, but Cori is — and if she’s going to win this competitive primary in less than three weeks, she needs your help, John.
Cori is by far one of the fiercest champions for abortion rights in Congress. She bravely testified about her own abortion experience after she was sexually assaulted as a teenager, and was the first Democratic member of Congress to demand a repeal of the Comstock Act, an outdated 1873 ‘zombie law’ that Republicans are trying to use to ban abortion pills and procedures nationwide.
With the far-right MAGA movement hell-bent on banning abortion nationwide and going after IVF and birth control next, we can’t afford to lose Cori in Congress.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
