John,

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Ilhan Omar
Ayanna Pressley
Rashida Tlaib
Jamaal Bowman
Cori Bush

These are the 6 members of the House of Representatives who, under enormous pressure, showed tremendous courage by voting against the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework (BIF) a few weeks ago.

At the time, they were ridiculed by many people when they stood firm, but they voted no because they knew that by voting yes on the infrastructure bill without keeping it tied to the Build Back Better Act, Joe Manchin would not have any incentive to move forward with transformative investments to support working families and counteract climate change.

And they were right.

We need to show that we stand firmly with the Squad and understand that moving forward with progressive change requires us to have the courage to challenge the status quo, especially when things get tough. Can you make a contribution of $15 (or more) today so we have the resources we need to defend and expand the Squad in 2022?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Alexandria, Ilhan, Ayanna, Rashida, Jamaal, and Cori all ran for Congress to fight for the people. Together, we can defend them and elect more progressive fighters to join them.

Thank you for your support,

— Yvette
