Love AOC, Cori Bush, and Jamal Bowman?

Well, establishment and corporate Dems in Congress just teamed up to
launch a new PAC to defeat progressive insurgent challengers like AOC,
Bowman, and Bush in primaries.

According to NBC, the concern is that some on the "far left" are "drawing
hard lines on issues like abortion, racial justice, and climate change."

Let that sink in.

[ [link removed] ]Just this month, we helped numerous progressive primary campaigns get
off the ground -- and there's more to come. We need to redouble our effort
to elect bold progressives to Congress -- exactly the kind that will draw
hard lines on issues like abortion, racial justice, and climate change.
Can you chip in $2.22 to our work this cycle?

Publicly, the establishment Dems say they are trying to protect Democrats
"slim majority" against Republicans. But we're calling their bluff.
They're lying.

Here's the proof:

One of the first two incumbents they've announced they'll "protect" from a
Republican takeover represents a deep blue New York City district
that hasn't elected a Republican to Congress since 1958 and voted for
Biden over Trump 84% - 15% in 2020. In this district, the Democratic
primary is the election.

The other incumbent represents the single most Democratic district in
Illinois -- a Chicago district that voted for Biden over Trump by 86% -
12% in 2020 and last elected a Republican to Congress in 1946! The Chicago
voters in this district would sooner vote to abolish deep-dish pizza than
elect a Republican.

The establishment isn't protecting the Democratic majority. They are mad
that in deep blue districts, progressives like AOC, Bowman, and Bush
challenged people who gave breaks to big corporations, opposed equality
for LGBTQ Americans, and led the anti-choice caucus in the House -- and
won. Now, they are circling the wagons to stop a new wave of progressives
from doing the same.

At best, they are protecting entrenched incumbents who have grown afraid
of their own voters. At worst, they are denying progressive voters in
overwhelmingly blue districts representation by people who deeply share
their values and will fight for them as hard as AOC, Jamaal Bowman, and
Cori Bush do.

Ultimately, this new PAC is the latest version of the establishment's
failed 2019 "blacklist" to hurt progressive consultants and candidates.
They failed then -- and we must make sure they fail again now.

[ [link removed] ]Chip in to help us fight back by supporting bold progressive candidates
across the country -- whether they are flipping red seats to blue or
giving the most progressive districts in the country the progressive
representation they deserve.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
