John, we can't let AIPAC and other pro-Netanyahu groups make an example out of me. Let me explain:
Our campaign made it clear from day 1 ⬇️ that the problems we face won't be solved with strongly worded letters or high-dollar fundraisers OR by doing AIPAC's bidding.
What problems? Protecting our immigrant neighbors from a fascist in the White House. Housing and healthcare that working families can’t afford. Stopping antisemitism and Islamophobia and hate of all kinds. And, yes, ending U.S complicity in the destruction of Gaza – and the corrosive impact on U.S. foreign policy more broadly.
My Op-Ed [[link removed]] in The Nation goes into more detail, but I'm emailing you today because my platform is the kind of thing pro-Netanyahu groups like AIPAC spend big to defeat (as we just saw them try in New Jersey). If you only have a moment but want to help spoil AIPAC's plans, can you chip in any amount today? [[link removed]]

What plans?
AIPAC spent over $2 million in a special election for New Jersey's 11th Congressional District and lost (to the impressive Analilia Mejia for whom I proudly canvassed).
But they aren’t going to take their ball and go home. A pro-Netanyahu group already endorsed my opponent. If anything, they'll probably end up spending more against me over the next few months until Election Day.
But AIPAC lost in NJ-11. And we can make sure they lose in NY-10.
As a proud Jewish New Yorker, the values I hold — most notably that every human being is created b’tzelem Elohim , in God’s image — give me a particular obligation in this moment to speak up: For the human rights of Palestinians. For genuine peace, safety, and freedom for both Israelis and Palestinians. And to keep fighting against Trump terrorizing our neighbors and destroying our democracy.
I have a proven track record of organizing and fighting to get things done in the name of those values.
When Trump's ICE agents kidnapped our neighbors , I put my body on the line to stop them. (And will continue to fight them in federal court using the discovery process to gather evidence against ICE).
When Trump and Musk stole $80 million from New York , I uncovered it and forced the City to get it back as Comptroller.
Now when pro-Netanyahu groups are trying to control who gets elected to Congress , I'm asking you to join our movement to stop them.
If you agree that the will of the people, not outside groups like AIPAC, should decide who's in Congress, can you chip in any amount today to help us win? [[link removed]]
