John,



Corporate Democrats are always blaming progressives for their own
failures. When Democrats lose, they blame progressives in their quest for
power with no questions asked. They did it when the House majority shrunk
after the 2020 election and when centrists lost the Virginia governor’s
race last year. And they’re doing it again as Democrats see their polling
numbers slip ahead of the midterm elections in November.

Right now, headlines are abounding that show the Party blaming “Squad
politics” for the grim midterm election prospects. Like this one that
dropped yesterday:

[ [link removed] ]Headline from Axios reads Squad politics backfire

Two things: 1) the majority party almost always loses their majority in
the midterms and 2) the only way to prevent this is for voters to feel in
their bones that President Biden and Democrats have delivered for them.
But because of obstruction from a handful of corporate-backed,
conservative Democrats that has not happened. This is the problem.

The Squad’s politics are doing what’s right for the people. That’s why
AOC, Ilhan, Rashida, Cori, Jamaal, and Ayanna were the only House
Democrats to vote to protect President Biden’s agenda to fight climate
change, extend the Child Tax Credit, lower health care costs, and secure
paid family and medical leave. Now, because of the Democratic Party’s
inability to deliver, child poverty rose 41% after the Child Tax Credit
wasn’t renewed.

We will never back down from Squad politics, because Squad politics is
fighting to reduce child poverty, it’s Medicare for All, it’s a Green New
Deal, it’s codifying Roe v. Wade, it’s canceling student debt, it’s racial
justice, it’s raising the minimum wage to at least $15, and more.

racial, and environmental justice. Can you rush a $3
donation to Justice Democrats to show our power? This is part of our
response to smears from the Democratic establishment.

Buried in a recent Politico article that blames the “culture war” for
Democrats’ grim election polling is this critical nugget: “Voters think
Democrats ‘are not making good use of their majority.’”

That’s what it really comes down to,
John. If Democrats renewed the
Child Tax Credit and passed Build Back Better, they’d be concretely
delivering economic relief to tens of millions of people. If corporate
Democrats listened less to their corporate donors, and fought for the
people, they’d be creating jobs, protecting the planet, and improving life
for nearly every person in this country.

That’s what Democrats could be delivering if they followed Squad politics.

[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in $3 to help us expand the Squad in
Congress and advocate for even more Squad politics? We must show the
strength of progressives right now, as the onslaught of smears from
corporate Democrats continues.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
