Friend,
I wanted to make sure you saw the message below from my sister-in-service, Alexandria.
Together, thanks to you, we’ve changed the face of Congress―fighting back against an unjust status quo that silences our voices and hands wealth and power to the few rather than the many.
Alexandria and I were elected in a wave of progressive women, including record-breaking numbers of women of color, who have helped transform what’s possible in our political system.
With only five weeks until my August 4th primary, will you make an urgent donation before tonight’s June 30th fundraising deadline? Help send me back to Congress and show the power of our movement for change.
Always serving you,
Rashida
--Alexandria's Message--
Friend,
A better world is not only possible, it is within our reach.
When Rashida and I were elected in 2018, political pundits wrote off our victories as flukes. It’s up to us to show the status quo that we’re here―not just as the future of the Democratic Party, but the future of our country.
Together, we aren’t just fighting for the transformative change this nation needs. We’re changing the conversation, bringing communities that have been left behind to the table, and centering the experiences of historically marginalized people―even as we receive massive resistance from the corporate elite and the political status quo.
But Wall Street money and billionaire bullies can’t buy a movement. Real change happens in the streets, when we demand an end to decades of structural racism and economic inequality.
That’s what Rashida and I are fighting for―and with your support, in less than two years we’ve begun to see what’s possible. We weren’t elected to accept half measures or a political status quo that tells us to wait until next year. We’re demanding real change right now. We’re demanding an America where everyone has the ability to thrive and survive.
With Rashida’s primary just five weeks away, she’s facing a critical June 30th fundraising deadline. Will you join me in supporting Rashida’s re-election campaign today?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your secure donation will go through immediately:
With every bill that Rashida introduces and every opportunity she uses to hold powerful people accountable, she remains rooted in community. One example is her BOOST Act, which I’m proud to co-sponsor: It would reverse the Trump-GOP tax scam for the wealthiest Americans and corporations, giving that money back to no- and low-income people in the form of direct cash payments and instantly uplifting 45% of people living in poverty.
Rashida drafts every bill in collaboration with community members to ensure that it gets at the root cause of inequalities and doesn’t leave behind those most impacted by racial, social, economic, and environmental injustice. And she’s always connecting her constituents to resources and information to support people who can’t wait until a bill is passed.
It’s time to advance an agenda that prioritizes our needs―and that means no more handouts to billionaires and corporations while denying millions of people the basic human rights to water, healthcare, education, housing, and nutritious food.
Join me in supporting Rashida before today’s critical June 30th fundraising deadline! Help send her back to Congress to continue building the movement that we started, together.
Here's to speaking truth to power!
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez U.S. Representative, NY-14
