Incredible news, team — progressive Summer Lee just defeated her billionaire-funded primary opponent in Pennsylvania’s 12th Congressional District! Right-wing group AIPAC poured more than $3 million into Summer’s race to try to silence our progressive movement — but they failed. We know that corporate super PACs and billionaires are coming for us next — that’s why we must prepare to fight back against any outside spending. We faced upwards of $20 million in attacks and outside spending in 2020 and could see even more come our way this summer. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Summer’s victory proves once again that organized people demanding change can beat back organized money. Voters can’t afford for us to think small — they are counting on us to deliver on their mandate for bold policies like student debt cancellation, a living minimum wage, Homes for All, and more. But while we're seeing a wave of progressive victories in primaries across the country, we’ve also seen some unfortunate losses as a result of these super PACs pouring tens of millions of dollars into several races to stifle progressive voices. That’s why we can’t afford to slow down now. We’ve seen how aggressive right-wing spending can be, and we need to get ready to fight back against whatever they throw at us.
