John,

Justin J. Pearson isn’t even in Congress yet, and he’s already taking on
Elon Musk:

[ [link removed] ]Tweet by More Perfect Union: Memphis is home to Elon Musk’s data center
empire — and the polluting turbines xAI uses to power them appear to be
making residents sick. Justin Parson has been leading the fight against
them, and is now running for Congress to elevate the fight to protect his
community. Pearson is running in a district that Tennessee Republicans
just gerrymandered, but in sticking to his progressive working class
values, and channeling the rage at xAI’s noise, pollution, and
lawlessness, he could pull off a historic upset.

This JD-endorsed state representative is on the ballot for Tennessee’s 9th
congressional district in this Thursday’s primary election, giving us just
four more days to get out the vote and move him one step closer to
fighting for Memphis in Congress.

[ [link removed] ]Can we count on you to split a contribution to Justice Democrats and
Justin’s campaign now to power our final days of this race?

When he was just 25, Justin led his community in organizing against the
Byhalia oil pipeline. He helped lead a coalition that successfully forced
two billion-dollar corporations to back down and abandon their projects
that would have further polluted a community plagued by environmental
racism for decades.

South Memphis is a poor, predominantly Black community with a long history
of industrial pollution and resulting health issues like asthma and
cancer. Now, it’s being treated as a sacrifice zone for Big Tech,
including Elon Musk’s xAI.

But Justin and the people of Memphis are fighting back with everything
they’ve got.

As Justin told folks at his rally last week, “Elon came into our community
without the consent of our community to build toxic data centers. So we
fought back against the largest hyperscale data center in the world. We
forced them to get permits they didn’t want to get."

Memphis is serving as a role model for other cities and towns across the
country that are rising up to block these projects, pass moratoriums, and
ban the building of toxic data centers that put profits before public
health — and Justin is a major reason for that.

Now, we have the chance to send him to Washington to join the rest of our
progressive bloc in holding Big Tech accountable while raising wages,
passing Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, and ending U.S. funding for
Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Despite facing racist gerrymandering from the Tennessee GOP designed to
eliminate this blue district, Justin has built a people-powered movement
uniting working-class folks from different backgrounds to fight back
against a system designed against us.

[ [link removed] ]Let’s give Justin the final boost he needs to win this primary and
advance to the general election in November: pitch in $10 or
whatever you can spare to fuel our movement to victory on Thursday!

In solidarity,
