John,
Yesterday, President Biden officially signed the Republican-backed infrastructure bill into law and Democrats lost their biggest bargaining chip to pass the investments for working people. Every day without action on the accompanying Build Back Better plan is one more day without the human infrastructure that Americans desperately need.
It’s no surprise that corporate Democrats Kyrsten Sinema and Henry Cuellar were front and center at the White House signing ceremony. For months, Sinema and Cuellar worked together to protect corporate interests and cut out popular and progressive policy proposals.
Kyrsten Sinema and Henry Cuellar fought against expanding the social safety net and investing in climate action. That is why we’re backing Jessica Cisneros in her primary challenge against Cuellar and supporting a full slate of progressives who won’t succumb to Sinema or Manchin’s political games.
When we elect more Justice Democrats, we grow the power of progressives to stand up against corporate Democrats like Cuellar, Sinema, and Manchin. If you’re with us in our work to elect more JD’s to Congress, will you chip in $3 right now?
The squad we supported in 2018 — AOC, Rashida, Ayanna, and Ilhan — and our 2020 candidates, Jamaal and Cori, all stood firm in their commitment to protecting investments for working people. Now, as we face a more challenging fight to secure Medicare expansion, universal pre-K, paid leave, and climate action, it’s become evident that we must elect more progressives like them.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
