John, the Democratic establishment in New York is very nervous.

As soon as the newest Justice Democrat, Rana Abdelhamid, announced she was running for Congress in New York, the New York Democratic Party started scrambling. The New York Democratic Party Chair issued an unhinged statement about Rana’s run that sounded like a Republican smear campaign. THEN, the Party sent out a fundraising email freaking out about the primary.

John, the Democratic Party in New York and Washington D.C. are worried about losing power. They’re worried they’ll be challenged to pass progressive priorities by an even larger group of Justice Democrats in Congress. And they should be worried.

We’re ready to elect even more working-class progressives to Congress. Chip in $3 right now to help us elect Rana and a wave of Justice Democrats to upend the status quo in this country.

Andrew Cuomo’s New York Democratic Party is so worried about defending 28-year, corporate-backed incumbent Carolyn Maloney. The political establishment has seen the leftward shift in parts of NYC with the elections of Justice Democrats Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman.

The establishment is so worried about losing more of their allies that they’re resorting to Republican tactics of trying to smear socialism and Defund the Police. Meanwhile, NY’s 12th District has been represented by someone taking millions of $$ from Wall Street, health insurance companies, real estate developers, and other corporate PACs. It’s been represented by someone NOT leading on the progressive change we need. NY-12 is ready for a progressive leader.

We have a lot of work to do to defeat entrenched corporate incumbents and all of their corporate PAC money. We rely entirely on grassroots support to elect progressives like AOC and Rana. Can you make a contribution today to help us elect Rana and defeat another corporate incumbent?

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
