Hey John, I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss our announcement the other day: Imani Oakley just joined our slate for 2022! If you missed the original announcement, check it out below.
I’m also writing to invite you to join Imani and me Saturday afternoon at 3:00pm ET / 12:00pm PT for a live conversation!
We’re launching the first of a series of these talks so you can get to know our candidates better. We’ll be streaming to Facebook and YouTube, and we’d love for you to join us. If you can’t make it Saturday, you can still catch the recording later. In the meantime, you can support Imani’s campaign by splitting a contribution between her and BNC here: Hope to see you there on Saturday, it’s going to be fun!

---------- Forwarded message ------------------ John -- Please join me in giving a warm welcome to Imani Oakley, running for NJ-10, as she joins the 2022 BNC slate!
Imani is a seasoned political organizer and social justice activist who has worked for immigrant rights and racial justice all her life. She was a founding member of Movement School, where she served as the first ever Dean of Movement Building mentoring a new generation of organizers.
Imani’s experience on the Hill working as a constituent advocate for Sen. Cory Booker, and her time in various leadership roles within the New Jersey Democratic Party, opened her eyes to the barriers regular people face trying to get real representation in D.C.
Imani is running for Congress to be the kind of representative working families can count on. We need to show Imani that she can count on the movement to have her back, too.
Will you split a contribution between Imani’s campaign and Brand New Congress today? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: We are at a precarious moment in history right now, John. There is so much on the line, and we can’t afford to wait another two, let alone 10 years for something to change.
In Congress, Imani will join the fight for economic justice, racial justice, a Green New Deal, Medicare for All, workers’ rights, sustainable infrastructure, demilitarization both at home and abroad -- and a fair democracy that works for ALL of us.
For too long, the political establishment in New Jersey has supported entrenched politicians who protect the interests of the wealthy and the well-connected.
The people of NJ-10 deserve a representative who isn’t afraid to stand up to power and fight for marginalized communities.
Imani is a fierce advocate for progressive policies, with a record that shows she will fight for everyone’s right to thrive.
Welcome to the BNC family, Imani!
