Friend — Congratulations to Zohran Mamdani!

This is a huge win for our movement and for anyone who believes in a future where all of us can thrive. A future where everyone has the housing, healthcare, education, and affordable life they deserve.

As a progressive, a Muslim, and an immigrant, I share a lot with Zohran. I faced the same challenges he faced when running for office — hatred, prejudice, threats and more. We’ve both been discounted by the establishment, targeted by billionaire-funded attack ads, and had our ideas dismissed because we dared to dream big and challenge the status quo.

But Zohran said it best in his remarks last night: “Dreaming demands solidarity—but above all dreaming demands work.”

Zohran’s performance is proof that anyone can stand up for progressive values and win if they have the support of a true grassroots movement and a positive message that regular people can get behind.

That’s how we’ve won reelection not once, not twice, but three times here in Minneapolis.

Now we must take the next step and continue to push this momentum forward.

AIPAC has already made it clear that they are looking into my race. If they decide to back a challenger, we will be in for the fight of our lives. They could be prepared, along with other mega-donors, to spend millions of dollars to defeat me.

So, if you’re ready to jump right back into the fight today, energized and ready to win, please:

Make a contribution of $5 or whatever you can and support our movement. I am coming up on an all-important FEC deadline, and we have to show the size and strength of our campaign.

If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your contribution will go through immediately:

Congratulations again to Zohran Mamdani for making history. Let’s all continue to support him as he works to win the general election in November.

In solidarity,

Ilhan Omar
