Friend,
Nina Turner is running for Congress to represent Ohio’s 11th district. And Nina and I have a lot in common.
Our districts are both connected by the Great Lakes, and we were both surrogates for Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign.
But our values are also deeply aligned: Nina and I are fighting on behalf of our residents and the entire country for racial, social, economic, and environmental justice.
If elected to Congress, Senator Turner will bring her rooted values to Washington, DC to fight alongside me and The Squad for justice and equity. Can you donate to Nina Turner’s campaign for Congress today?
Senator Turner is running in a special election to fill the soon-to-be vacated seat of Rep. Marcia Fudge, who has been nominated as President Biden’s HUD Secretary.
Read my email below for more information about why we need Nina Turner in Congress. And then pitch in to support her campaign today!
Thank you for fighting for a progressive future where we not only survive, but thrive.

Friend,
It’s time to expand The Squad. That means electing new members of Congress who share our vision: that together we can achieve the future our children deserve and that to do so we must completely transform the structures in place that are hurting our people and our communities.
Right now, National Co-Chair of Bernie Sanders's 2020 campaign, State Senator Nina Turner, is running for Congress in Ohio’s 11th Congressional District!
Born to working class parents in Cleveland, Senator Turner has spent her career tirelessly advocating for working people and marginalized communities.
Will you join me in supporting Nina Turner’s campaign for Congress so we can send a progressive hero to Washington, DC?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your secure donation will go through immediately, split evenly between Rashida Tlaib and Nina Turner:
Nina Turner is committed to justice―including racial justice, economic justice, environmental justice, and healthcare justice―for all of us, not just the wealthy few.
Senator Turner's immediate priorities include:
-
expanding healthcare to all people and reducing prescription drug prices with the goal of creating a Medicare for All system
-
fighting for a $15 minimum wage
-
providing COVID relief targeted to working people and small businesses
So much more would be possible if she were to serve alongside me in Congress. Together, we'd push together for justice and equity for working people and marginalized communities.
Join me in supporting Nina Turner for Congress today!
Black progressive leadership is so important. Let’s send Nina Turner to Washington, DC to fight alongside me and The Squad.
Ever since I served in Michigan's state legislature, I've been opening the door for more women of color, more Muslim women, and more people from underrepresented communities to serve in office. Because we often have the life experience to truly understand and serve the people we represent. With each election, we are increasing representation of Black and brown communities in Congress and growing our progressive power.
Thank you for fighting by my side,
Rashida
