John --

Just last month, we launched our first two Justice Democrat candidates of the cycle — but we’re not even close to done.

If we’re going to win a Congress that will truly fight for bold progressive policies, we need a full generation of bold progressive leaders who will fight for social, economic, racial, and environmental justice for all.

Today, we’re proud to announce the next three members of that generation: Cori Bush (MO-01), Betsy Sweet (ME Senate), and Marie Newman (IL-03). Help them start their campaigns strong by donating $27 directly today:

Each of these new Justice Democrat candidates will be powerful champions for justice — and incredible allies in the fight to pass a Green New Deal, Medicare for All, campaign finance reform, and an end to mass incarceration and deportation.

Cori Bush ran as a Justice Democrat last cycle, and we’re proud that she’s taking up the fight once again. As a single mother, a registered nurse, an ordained pastor, and an organizer fighting police brutality, Cori Bush has lived a life of service to her community. Cori represents so many of the voices we need in Congress right now. In a district that has had the same family representing constituents for over 40 years, it’s time for change, and Cori is ready to bring it.

Betsy Sweet is our first Senate endorsement of the cycle, and is set to take down Susan Collins, the pivotal vote for Brett Kavanaugh. Betsy has spent her entire life fighting for working families all across the state of Maine. It’s clear that Susan Collins has to be replaced by a bold progressive champion who will fight to enact Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and free college.

And last but certainly not least, Marie Newman lost her race last cycle by just 2145 votes, against an incumbent with millions in corporate PAC money. The DCCC has been working overtime to stop progressive candidates like Marie Newman from unseating out-of-touch incumbents.

Marie is challenging one of the most conservative Democrats in the House who chairs the Pro-Life Caucus, voted against Obamacare, and was one of the only Democrats to vote against an LGBTQ equality bill. Dan Lipinski is the model of a Democrat in name only, and it’s time for him to get out of the way.

We need all of these progressive leaders in Congress. Will you split a $27 donation between each of their campaigns today? Every person who donates sends a powerful message about how many progressives are ready for change in Congress.

Together, we can win a new generation of progressive leaders. That change starts right here and right now.
