Friends --

AIPAC’s new PAC just announced its first slate of midterm endorsements. It
includes over 35 Republicans who voted to overturn the presidential
election results after the January 6 insurrection.

The list includes Rep. Jim Jordan, who has been called to testify over his
involvement in organizing the January 6 riot. Just last month, Jordan
supported Donald Trump’s suggestion that Democratic campaign staffers be
executed for treason, saying it was “right on target.”

Friends -- Whatever their view on Israel, there can be no excuse
for raising millions of dollars for candidates who threaten our democratic
future.

In recent years, AIPAC has run attack ads painting Democrats as terrorist
sympathizers and fought against President Obama’s Iran deal. They continue
to lobby lawmakers against any meaningful US action to deter settler
violence, settlement expansion or discriminatory evictions. Now, they’re
committing to financially support dozens of Republicans who voted to throw
out our election results.

Together, we must show that AIPAC does not represent our community. We
must diminish their influence on Capitol Hill, fight for democratic
freedoms and make supporting candidates who undermine democracy a
disqualifying red line.

At J Street, we’re proud to lead the fight for democratic freedoms for
Israelis and Palestinians -- and right here at home.

It’s why we announced our “Democracy Pledge” last year, calling on all
Jewish and pro-Israel organizations to join together in a public
commitment to refuse to support any candidate who voted against certifying
the results of the 2020 election or publicly supported the “Big Lie” that
Donald Trump won the election.

After AIPAC refused to take the pledge, I expected this to be bad -- but
not this bad. More than half of the Republican candidates AIPAC has just
endorsed voted against the certification of the 2020 presidential election
results.

We must not let this pass unnoticed.

Together, we must make clear that AIPAC’s support for these candidates
endangers American democracy and undermines the democratic freedoms of the
millions of American Jews and pro-Israel Americans they claim to
represent.

And together, we will continue to make clear that their efforts to defend
the occupation and block opposition to the settlement movement undermines
the democratic freedoms of Israelis and Palestinians as well -- just as it
undermines the pro-Israel, pro-peace vision that the majority of Jewish
Americans hold.

As we go toe to toe with AIPAC and press the importance of fighting for
our values and our future, we’d deeply appreciate your grassroots support.

We don't have right-wing mega-donors, we have you. [ [link removed] ]Please consider a
