With your support, Justice Democrats is able to recruit progressive community leaders like AOC and Jamaal Bowman and support their campaigns to make history. Jamaal is the fourth Justice Democrat-backed primary challenger to defeat a congressional incumbent from the left. And it’s all thanks to supporters like you.
This win proves that a Black man who survived poverty and police violence at 11 years old has the power to transform his community and country. He’s one of the first candidates being swept into Congress by the movement in the streets right now, and he won’t be the last.
For decades, the establishment machine stymied progressive visionaries by saying, ‘wait your turn, that’s not realistic,’ and then dumping millions of dollars from corporate PACs like they did in the final weeks of this campaign. Let’s keep fighting for transformative policies like Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and racial justice.
Thank you for your support!
