John, our average contribution in April is $17.70.
Here’s why we’re proud of that number: We don’t accept corporate dollars, and instead rely on our grassroots supporters to give what they can and fuel our organizing and electoral efforts.
Unlike the political establishment, we don’t believe in alarmist fundraising tactics. We’ll never scam our supporters out of a dollar and have built this movement through mutual respect and the desire to change the status quo.
We still have fundraising benchmarks to reach in order to execute the campaigns and advocacy efforts needed to hold Democrats accountable and transform the Democratic party. We need at least 500 people to give $17.70 or whatever they can, in order to meet our end-of-month fundraising goal. Can you be the next person to help us reach our goal?
In just a few years, the candidates we’ve elected to Congress, like AOC, Ilhan, Jamaal, Cori, have made a tremendous impact, while do-nothing incumbents have just done little except raise more corporate PAC money for their re-election and maintain the status quo.
The establishment has proven that even with the majority, they won’t fight for our values. If we want to cancel student loan debt, pass Medicare for All, and win a Green New Deal, we’re going to have to elect more progressives to Congress.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
