John,

This is Justin Pearson, current Tennessee State Representative and Justice
Democrats’ third Democratic primary candidate for 2026. Someone who is
rarely seen without his community by his side.

Justin is running for Congress in Tennessee’s 9th congressional district
against this guy: Rep. Steve Cohen, who is rarely even seen in his
community at all. He’s a politician who has been in elected office for
over 40 years and doesn’t have much to show for it, except a community
struggling with worse poverty, environmental racism, and gun violence than
when he was first elected.

Justin has gone up against tough fights before. He led a group of
environmental activists to block the Byhalia crude oil pipeline in a
low-income, 95 percent Black community already impacted by decades of
pollution.

He was expelled from his seat in the Tennessee State House by Republicans
just weeks after he was sworn in, all for simply participating in a gun
violence prevention protest. He was reinstated soon after and then won
re-election with nearly 94% of the vote.

above his head.

Recently, he’s been fighting to stop Elon Musk and his massive xAI data
center from illegally spewing toxic, cancer-causing air pollution in his
South Memphis neighborhood, which has long faced environmental racism from
corporate polluters.

Now, he’s running for Congress in Tennessee's 9th district to give the
working-class communities of Memphis a real fighter in DC who knows their
struggles.

Just like Summer Lee, Ilhan Omar, Delia Ramirez, and other Justice
Democrats, Justin can bring fresh, bold leadership to the halls of power —
but he’s depending on support from everyday people like you to get him
there.

split $5 or whatever is meaningful to you to power our
movement today.
