[1]Cori Bush

Hi John, it's Rep.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. 

I’m writing to you today because in just 3 weeks, Rep. Cori Bush will have
to face four, corporate-backed challengers in a competitive primary
election. 

[ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $5 right now to help Cori push back
against these attacks and overcome the dark money being flooded in this
race?

Since meeting Cori in 2017 when we were both first-time House candidates
running to take on establishment Democrats to today, Cori has always
inspired me. And I couldn't be more proud to work alongside her in
Congress.

Cori is exactly the leader we need to represent St. Louis in Congress. As
a nurse, pastor, and single mom of two kids, she has always been involved
in her community. After the murder of Michael Brown in 2014 just minutes
from where she lived, Cori stepped up to serve her neighbors as a triage
nurse. When attacks on abortion rights started escalating, Cori began
sharing her own abortion story and has been leading the fight to pass
urgent reproductive health protections in our communities. 

Together, we introduced the Green New Deal for Cities to federally fund a
Green New Deal in every community and stayed outside the Capitol for five
days demanding an extended eviction moratorium to keep people housed.
Districts like Cori's and mine disproportionately feel the impacts of
environmental racism, economic inequity, and police violence — that’s why
Cori and I understand what's at stake in our work. 

Keeping Cori with me in Congress is absolutely critical to ensuring the
future of our progressive movement. Together, we will continue holding the
line to pass Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, abortion access
protections, and the anti-racist policies our communities need. 

[ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $5 today to keep Cori in Congress,
reach Team Cori's $50,000 fundraising goal before tonight's FEC filing
deadline, and power their re-election campaign? Cori needs our help today
to build the resources to defend against any GOP attacks.



[ [link removed] ]Chip in $5



Last cycle, corporate GOP mega-donors and less-than-progressive primary
challengers spent millions attacking me. Fox News would dedicate entire
segments spewing racist, false, negative attacks at our campaign. 

And now these same kinds of attacks are being launched on Cori’s
campaign. 

Her corporate-backed opponent has already invested $100,000 in TV attack
ads and outside groups are pouring in millions to make our progressive
movement look weak.

From personal experience, I know how important it is that we all show up
as a movement to support Cori through this election. ​​We must send a loud
message that we will not back down in our mission to dismantle systemic
racism in America and pass transformative policies that lift ALL of our
families up.

[ [link removed] ]Cori's campaign set a goal to raise $50,000 in grassroots donations
before the final pre-primary FEC deadline tonight to organize across
Missouri’s First District and reach out to voters before the election. If
you can, please donate any amount today to keep my sister, Cori Bush, in
Congress.

Pa’lante,

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
