Three new 2022 candidates endorsed

Dear Email,

It’s integral that we continuously support progressive candidates who truly strive to dismantle oppressive systems and work towards the collective liberation of all people. In working towards this goal, Americans for Justice in Palestine Action is excited to continue endorsing candidates for the 2022 midterm congressional elections. 

We’re thrilled to announce our second round of endorsements, which consists of the three new candidates whose positions toward Israel and the Palestinian people broadly align with our principles and our mission of ending Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people: 

Imani Oakley (NJ-10)

"As a Black woman, I grew up on the history of Apartheid in South Africa and I know all too well the types of state violence inflicted on Black people here in the United States. As such, it is imperative that, as I seek to eradicate state violence at home and abroad, I also show solidarity with the Palestinian Liberation Movement. As a Congresswoman, that is exactly what I'm going to do." - Imani Oakley

 

Mike Ortega (CA-46)

"Our movement in Orange County is proud to fight alongside Americans For Justice In Palestine Action. The fight for human rights and dignity for our brothers and sisters in Palestine needs leaders, and AJP Action is doing crucial work. We must always stand against colonizers and oppressors, but it falls on our shoulders when our nation supports or aids that imperialism." - Mike Ortega

 

Iymen Chehade  (IL-03)

"The Palestinian people deserve dignity, freedom, and justice. I'm happy to be endorsed by AJP Action, an organization working toward those goals." - Iymen Chehade

 

Are you or do you know a candidate who wants to work alongside and be endorsed by AJP Action in order to strengthen a shift in the narrative of Israel and Palestine, and create a more sustainable path for Palestinian rights in the American progressive agenda? 

Fill out this form or send it to a candidate you believe should be endorsed by us!

More information about our candidates can be found on our website

 

Sincerely,

Dr. Osama Abu Irshaid

Executive Director, AJP Action
