John,

This is Junaid Ahmed. I’m running for Congress in Illinois’ 8th District, and I'm so proud to have the backing of Justice Democrats.

I’d like to ask you a few questions:

📌 Are you tired of your tax dollars being wasted on cruelty, from ICE invasions to Israeli war crimes?
📌 Are you tired of people who aren’t willing to fight for our communities in Washington?
📌 Are you tired of Congress neglecting to put Trump in his place?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, I want you to join me in this fight.

Can I count on you to split a contribution to my people-powered campaign and Justice Democrats today?

We will fight to create an economy that serves the people, not the billionaires. We will crack down on Trump’s overreach and stand against cruelty, at home and abroad. But I can’t do this without your help.

Our campaign has the momentum. Even as federal agents descend upon my city of Chicago, we were able to raise $500k last quarter, and we are showing the competition what a strong, people-powered campaign truly looks like.

Will you stand with me and donate $5, $15, or $25 today? Our primary is less than three months away. Some of my opponents are funded by those who don’t want a fair playing field, but I know my values. I am only funded by grassroots donors like you.

Contribute $5

I’ve spent my life rolling up my sleeves—volunteering after natural disasters, distributing food to families in need, organizing, and fighting ICE and corporate greed.

I've also spent my entire adult life advocating for Palestinian rights. I believe in an immediate ceasefire with full humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza, realizing the self-determination of the Palestinian people, and an end to the Israeli Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.

I know how to stand up for my community. But I can’t do it alone. So, what do you say?

Are you with us?

In solidarity,

Junaid
