Dear Friends,

If Passover teaches us anything, it’s that the battle for freedom is
neither short nor easy. Our ancestors didn’t give up in ancient times –
and J Street certainly won’t today.

Our generation’s struggle isn’t against the pharaohs of the past but the
wannabe autocrats of today: President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu.

They’re two sides of the same authoritarian coin: Scapegoating minorities.
Consolidating power in their loyalists. Trashing free speech and the
press. Claiming to speak in our names.

As J Street leads the fight for democracy, for diplomacy, for peace, we
need you by our side. We don’t have right-wing megadonors like Elon Musk –
we have you. Friends, can you help us close the gap on our $50,000
grassroots fundraising goal? Every donation brings us closer to hitting
our target.

In this pivotal moment, J Street has been:

* Working with Members of Congress like Vermont’s Becca Balint to
mobilize lawmakers to stand up for students wrongfully detained by the
Trump Administration;
* Organizing rabbis to denounce using antisemitism as a pretext for
attacking our democracy;
* Filing an amicus brief with other Jewish organizations on behalf of
Rumeysa Ozturk, the Tufts student arrested by ICE in front of her
home;
* Making the case in the media that Trump and the MAGA right don’t speak
for us when it comes to antisemitism.

We’ll continue to beat the drum. We’re not going to let Trump and Musk
dismantle our country or let Netanyahu tear Israel apart while abandoning
the remaining 59 hostages.

J Street will never sacrifice our core liberal and democratic values or
bow to wannabe autocrats, hoping they’ll spare us from their assault. We
know that freedom, equality and democracy make us stronger, not weaker.

To sustain our advocacy against the Trump/Netanyahu agenda in the weeks,
months and years ahead, we’ve set an ambitious target. Since my colleague
Adee first reached out last week, we’ve seen some incredible support, but
we’re not there yet.

Friends: [ [link removed] ]Could you consider a contribution of
$18, $36 or $90 – or any other amount
– to help us close the gap?

Together, we’ll rise to this moment. With so much at stake, we can’t
afford to fall short.

We deeply appreciate your support,

Jess Blum
Digital Director, J Street
