John,
Based on our averages this year, we’re about 33% behind on fundraising this month. We can’t afford that right now.
This is a critical time to help our Justice Democrat-endorsed candidates build strong campaign infrastructure and organizing plans. We helped launch three progressive, working-class campaigns to defeat long-time Democratic incumbents who take tons of money from Wall Street and protect the status quo. In fact, that’s one of the reasons we’re a little behind on our fundraising — we helped raise more than $30,000 for Kina Collins’ campaign for Congress in Illinois’ 7th District so far in June.
It’s extremely hard to contend with the Democratic establishment because of how much corporate and Wall Street cash it brings in. We need your urgent help so we have the resources to take on corporate Democrats. Will you rush a $3 donation (or anything at all) to Justice Democrats right now »
Some of the establishment Democrats we’ll be facing in primaries started with more than $250,000 dollars in their campaign accounts when our campaigns launched. All of the incumbent Democrats have raised huge sums of money from corporate PACs. We don’t take a cent from corporate PACs, which is why we need your help to catch up this month.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
