Hi, my name is Justin J. Pearson. I’m Memphis born and raised, the son of a preacher and a teacher. I was raised financially poor, but spiritually rich. I am a believer in justice and a fighter for our future. Today, I proudly announce my candidacy for Congress.

In 2023, after standing alongside over 7,000 activists who marched for action to end gun violence, I was expelled from my duly elected office in the Tennessee State House alongside one of my colleagues, Rep. Justin Jones.

The Republicans in the majority said I had "violated decorum" and deserved an unprecedented expulsion. The press called Rep. Jones, Rep. Gloria Johnson and me "The Tennessee Three."

With our expulsion, they thought they could silence our Movement. But they were wrong.

The truth is, that fight was never about just one protest or one issue. It was about the kind of future we’re willing to fight to build — and still is.

I’m tired of seeing the same corrupt, corporate- and special-interest-backed politicians sell our communities short.

I’m tired of seeing Donald Trump and MAGA-sympathizers tear down democracy while working people suffer.

Enough is enough, John. I am running for Congress to fight for our families, our values, and our future. We need new leaders in Congress who will stand up for what is right.

If you’re ready to join me in building something new — politics that are rooted in justice, truth, and People Power, I need you in this fight with me. Will you help get our campaign off the ground by splitting a donation between Democratic Values and my campaign? [[link removed]]

We’ve seen what we’re up against. The same forces that tried to expel us once are ready to spend millions to keep their grip on power.

But I believe in us — and I believe in the power of a people-first Movement to reimagine what’s possible. We’ve already made history once, John. Now, we’re ready to make change in Congress.

Please split a $9 Founding Donation now to power our campaign and bring our vision for a better future to the halls of Congress. It would send a powerful message if we reach $50,000 raised in our first big fundraising push. [[link removed]]
