[1]Bowman for Congress
John,
Just yesterday, we heard that Senate Democrats may be planning to drop
paid family and medical leave from the Build Back Better Act.
The way we and Jaamal see it,
John, it's unacceptable that one
person from one state can have all the power to make decisions that will
crush our district and districts like ours across the country.
Jamaal understands how barbaric and inhumane this is. In fact, it's
choices like these, from politicians like Joe Manchin, that motivated
Jamaal to run for and serve in Congress in the first place.
[ [link removed] ]Since the start of his term, Jamaal has consistently fought to bring
the progressive perspective to the White House — and is now holding the
line for an infrastructure bill without compromise. Will you chip in
$3 or whatever you're able today to our campaign and show
Jamaal that you've got his back?

Here's why this latest update is so ridiculous,
John:
President Biden initially proposed 12 weeks in the Build Back Better Act.
It was then cut down to just four weeks, and now we're hearing it's zero
weeks because of Manchin's opposition.
Most childcare centers won't take children under six weeks. We don't even
allow puppies to leave their parent until it's developmentally
appropriate. The United States currently offers no guarantee of paid leave
to families — and now, we're negotiating for a meager four weeks’ worth or
less.
Voters, particularly Black, brown, and working class voters, delivered the
White House, the Senate, and the House for us. Our lawmakers must meet
this moment, and meet the needs of the people — without compromise. Our
communities have been playing catch up trying to access the American dream
for decades, and the moment is now to deliver.
Jamaal's leadership in Congress has never felt more urgent or necessary.
Since the beginning, he's been holding the line with other progressive
members of Congress to push back against these compromises from
politicians like Joe Manchin.
And as we look towards Jamaal's first re-election just a little over a
year away, we know that the political establishment is going to do
everything it can to silence our movement. If we want to keep leaders like
Jamaal in Congress, we need to prepare to fight back — hard.
[ [link removed] ]Can we count on you to have Jamaal's back today and make a
$3 contribution to help us hit our $15,000 fundraising goal
before Sunday? Your contribution will ensure we have the resources we need
to continue holding the line and keeping Jamaal's leadership in Congress.
In solidarity,
Team Bowman
