Jamaal won!!!
John, we’re so excited to let you know that Jamaal Bowman won his primary tonight which means that all 6 members of the Squad are heading to the general election in November!
Jamaal faced tough redistricting in New York, but still prevailed against moderates who relentlessly attacked him in mailers and ads. Now, Jamaal, Cori, Alexandria, Rashida, Ilhan, and Ayanna are all poised to head back to Congress to continue fighting for the people.
Every one of our wins helps grow our movement for progressive change in this country and our work to transform the Democratic Party. Jamaal’s win is huge because it’s his first time running for re-election. After facing corporate money and defeating a corporate incumbent in 2020, Jamaal has proven again that he’s the people’s choice.
Every day, we’re fighting to protect the Squad (our fiercest progressive leaders in Congress) and expand the JD bloc in Congress. We must now ensure we elect Summer Lee and Greg Casar in November, re-elect the Squad, and continue building towards our progressive goals.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
