John --
A few months ago, the DCCC officially blacklisted staffers and vendors who worked for progressive primary challengers like Marie Newman. Their hope was to cripple these new leaders and protect the out-of-touch incumbents that form the bulk of Congress.
It backfired. It united progressives from all backgrounds under a common banner: real democracy.
When we launched the DCCC blacklist site, we didn’t expect mainstream media attention — since most of the time, primary challengers won’t get that advantage. But just a few days ago, NBC news ran a full story about our powerful response:
Thanks to the site that you helped us build, primary challengers from across the country are saying that the Blacklist is making it easier to find people and staffers to help run their insurgent campaigns.
This victory just goes to show a fundamental reality about progressives in this country: the establishment always looks powerful, but if we stand together, we will win.
In solidarity
