John – Brittany Ramos DeBarros is doing something radical.
The Democratic Party wrote off Staten Island as an unwinnable district after a moderate Democrat lost the seat to a pro-Trump, pro-insurrection Republican.
But Staten Island is not “Trump country.” It’s a vibrant working class community hungry for a representative who will fight for them. And we have just the woman for the job: Brittany Ramos DeBarros.
Brittany is a proud Staten Islander, an Afro-Latina, a veteran + anti-war activist, and a working class New Yorker. She’s running to flip NY-11 to fight for working families.
Brand New Congress was proud to be one of the first organizations to support her campaign last year. Now her primary is just six weeks away.
Will you split a contribution between Brand New Congress and Brittany’s groundbreaking campaign now to flip this seat and oust an insurrectionist? [[link removed]]

Brittany is building a true grassroots movement for change in Staten Island, one that is rooted in radical, accountable, disciplined hope that we can change and build toward true healing and restoration.
Her opponents call her policies radical. But is it radical to believe our elected representatives should fight for reproductive justice, police reform, living wages and healthcare? Or is that what is needed to meet the moment?
In an essay published on Independence Day, Brittany shared how she stays motivated to keep fighting, even when everything feels stacked against us:
"When you love something, you fight for it. When we have the hope and courage to be honest with ourselves and each other, we move in true love."
And Brittany IS fighting for us. On June 30th, she was arrested as part of a mass civil disobedience in front of the Supreme Court in Washington D.C., alongside BNC’s Melanie D’Arrigo and dozens of activists.
As an active duty service member, Brittany risked her career, facing investigations and threats of retaliation, for speaking out against the military industrial complex, forever wars, and corruption and abuse within the world’s most powerful military.
Brittany’s movement is electrifying her community, bringing out volunteers from all walks of life. Recently, a 102 year old woman participated in a Team Brittany phonebank!

Brittany has been a clear voice for concrete action in the wake of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, calling for Congress to:
End the filibuster
Codify the rights to abortion, contraception, and marriage equality
Expand and reform the court
Repeal the Hyde Amendment
Ratify the Equal Rights Amendment
If you’ve been frustrated by the weak, tepid response from most Democrats to the public health and civil rights emergency of losing Roe , then you know we need Brittany’s bold and fearless leadership in Congress.
With six weeks to go, the momentum behind her campaign has never been stronger. Will you split a contribution with Brittany and Brand New Congress now to flip NY-11 and send another progressive fighter to Congress? [[link removed]]
We’ve seen Brittany put her body on the line time and again. We know she is true to her word, through and through, and we can’t wait to see her in action in Washington.
In solidarity,
Brand New Congress
P.S. Join Brittany and her team TONIGHT at their weekly virtual meet and greet to learn more about their People-Powered campaign for NY-11. Event begins at 6pm ET.

Since 2016 BNC has led the way in advancing popular policies like Medicare for All and the Green New Deal. We invest EARLY to help grassroots candidates succeed. We recruited and elected AOC in 2018 and Cori Bush in 2020 alongside Jamaal Bowman and Rashida Tliab. And we have our first win of 2022: Rep.

We have elections from now until November, and our candidates are counting on your support. Pitch in today and join us as we take over Congress and return power to the people.
