John, our fundraising numbers have gone up in the last ten days, but still at a slower pace than last month. We’re still exactly 31% behind where we were at this time in January. And in the middle of candidate recruitment, falling further behind on fundraising could hurt our abilities to find the strongest progressive primary challengers for 2022.

Donate $3 right away to ensure our work to transform the Democratic Party and find strong candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Cori Bush is a success.

We appreciate you,

Team JD

Subject: The two sides of the Democratic Party

John,

In just a moment, we’re going to ask you to make a contribution to Justice Democrats. But first, please let us explain why your donations right now are so critical.

We need a Democratic Party that fights for its voters, not corporate donors. JD does the hard work of recruiting, training, fundraising and organizing with bold, progressive candidates.

On one side of this intra-party ideas battle, you have the DCCC, which raises huge sums of money to support establishment candidates that keep the Democratic Party status quo alive.

Then there’s our side. We’re building a solid base of progressives in Congress fighting for Medicare for All, racial justice, COVID-19 relief — and we’re doing it with an incredibly low budget. But the reality is we could be doing more if we had more resources to go against the DCCC.

So when we saw this morning that our fundraising is down about 31% from where we were last month, we wanted to do everything we can to ensure the future of our work to recruit candidates. We need to be scaling up, not down right now, to find the next slate of Justice Democrats. That’s why we're asking for your help as we strive to catch up on our fundraising this month:

Can you make a $3 donation now to keep Justice Democrats fighting? We already upset the establishment on a tight budget. Imagine what we could do with your financial support.

Contribute $3

The truth is there’s no one waiting in the wings to do this work if we don’t do it together. Without your support, our progressive movement could be locked out of power for decades to come. So when you give your time and financial support, it makes a big difference for our organization.

As of today, we’ve raised $44,575 this month. Last month at this time, we had raised $65,220. That’s a 31% decrease when we need to be trending up to compete with the DCCC and their incumbents.

If you can afford it, please contribute $3 to help us catch up on our fundraising this month. Every donation matters, no matter how big or small, because we are 100% grassroots funded.

Contribute $3

Thank you so much for everything you do to support our movement.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
