Cuellar released a video after the FBI raided his house.

Justice Democrats

John,

Even after the FBI raided his home and campaign office, Rep. Henry Cuellar announced that he’s still running for re-election. We thought he might drop out of the race, but now we know we have a real race on our hands.

Here’s the thing, though: the FBI raid and the ongoing investigation into Cuellar is giving Jessica Cisneros a huge opportunity in this primary.

Politico headline reads Texas primary showdown bursts open agter FBI raid

Jessica only lost her race against Cuellar in 2020 by 2,746 votes. Jessica has the corporate-free, progressive policies that people in TX-28 want. Now, she has the momentum while Cuellar deals with the FBI.

But Cuellar still has millions in campaign cash from the Kochs, Wall Street, Big Oil, Big Pharma, and corporate PACs. We’re counting on you to help keep Jessica’s momentum going with grassroots support right away.

John, can you chip in and split a donation between Jessica’s campaign and Justice Democrats so we can defeat Cuellar? In-person early voting starts in less than 3 weeks, and this is a critical moment for Jessica’s campaign.

As a reminder, the FBI raid on Cuellar’s home and office is part of an investigation led by the DOJ team that handles issues related to bribery, corruption, election crimes, and more. That investigation is related to ties between U.S. businessmen and Azerbaijan.

An FBI raid is a very bad look for Cuellar, especially this close to the primary. He may say the investigation will show “no wrongdoing” on his part, but the public surely is questioning why the FBI was at his house and campaign office, lugging out boxes of evidence.

This is the moment for Jessica to close the gap and defeat Cuellar. If you can, please split a donation to Jessica and Justice Democrats so we can show voters that Jessica is the right choice in TX-28.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
