John, it’s official!
Jamaal Bowman has defeated 31-year incumbent Eliot Engel in New York’s 16th District. This is an incredible victory and we are so thankful for your support.
Our fight is just getting started. We’re working to transform the Democratic Party by building the infrastructure for diverse, working-class candidates to run for Congress and win.
This fight was an opportunity to prove that a Black man who survived poverty and police violence at 11 years old could have the political power to transform this country. Jamaal Bowman will bring his entire lived experience to the halls of Congress.
From Hillary Clinton’s endorsement to millions in dark money spent by an anti-Bernie Super PAC to the DCCC’s blacklist. We went up against everything the establishment could throw at us.
Pulling off major upsets like this one takes resources and the establishment is going to fight back like never before. We have to be prepared and we need the resources to keep fighting for our movement.
Thank you!
