John,
As we speak, AIPAC is targeting the Squad in their Democratic primaries — the next one is coming up for my friend Rep. Cori Bush on Tuesday, August 6th.
AIPAC has had its eyes set on my fellow Justice Democrats incumbents like Cori Bush and Ilhan Omar since day one — garnering millions in mega donations from Republican millionaires and billionaires to unseat them in their primaries and the general election this upcoming November.
The reason? They’ve all remained boldly outspoken in their call for a ceasefire in Gaza, and they won’t stop speaking out for Palestinian human rights until peace and real justice for Palestinians is our reality.
We know what AIPAC is willing to do to try and tear down our movement. In New York’s 16th District, they spent more money than ever before in a congressional primary race to unseat my friend Jamaal Bowman. They’ve committed to spend $100 million to unseat the Squad and any bold, progressive candidate of color. They’ve blanketed districts with attack ads to spread baseless lies and misinformation. And they think they have us cornered.
But, our people power is stronger, our collective voice is louder, and together we will win come Election Day.
We need to be ready to defend the rest of the Squad against any attack from AIPAC or their GOP megadonors. Please chip in to Cori’s campaign and Justice Democrats today to support the Squad and ensure they can stay in Congress fighting for us.
Together,
Pramila Jayapal
