[ ]J Street [ ]
Friends,

AIPAC’s super PAC has announced yet another avalanche of attack ads
against a principled, progressive, J Street-endorsed Democrat.

This time, we’re expecting over $1.5 million in attack ads against former
Congresswoman Donna Edwards in her Maryland primary. One of J Street’s
earliest champions, Donna has a proud record standing up for human rights,
backing President Obama’s Iran deal and supporting a just, peaceful and
free future for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Those principles have made her a top target for AIPAC, which continues to
attack Democrats who stand for democratic freedoms and the rule of law,
while also fundraising for over 100 Republicans who voted to overturn the
election on January 6.

Friends -- We cannot allow AIPAC’s right wing attacks to shape the
future of the Democratic party and the future of American leadership. We
cannot allow them to intimidate strong, principled leaders into silence --
or to undermine our democracy under the ‘pro-Israel’ banner.

In Maryland, J Street has issued a clear call on Edwards’ opponent to
disavow the attack ads, turning the spotlight onto his acceptance of
anti-democratic, right-wing support. Together, we need to make sure every
Democratic voter knows that when a candidate accepts support from a super
PAC tied to 109 Republicans who sided with violent insurrectionists by
voting to overturn the election, it’s a clear red flag.

We’ve echoed supportive messages from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has
joined Senator Elizabeth Warren to endorse the Edwards campaign, and who
has made clear that AIPAC’s attacks on Donna Edwards' record are baseless.

And through the J Street Action Fund, our movement is directly combating
AIPAC’s spending in primary races and helping to elect the next generation
of principled, values-driven leaders.

The Edwards race is part of a larger referendum on whether our democratic
system is going to reject attempts by AIPAC and its allies to overwhelm
our political system with tens of millions of dollars to shut down those
who -- like Donna Edwards -- courageously stand up for peace, diplomacy
and human rights for Israelis and Palestinians.

Together, we must stand up for our vision of a truly just, democratic
Israel -- and make clear that there can be no excuse for funding over 100
MAGA Republicans who threaten the foundations of our democracy.

fight for principled, pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy leadership >>
