John, we’ve had some incredible achievements aside from Election Day recently.
First, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón charged LA Sheriff’s Deputy Rimen Pineda for shooting and killing David Ordaz last year in East LA in front of his family.
Everything about the shooting was preventable. With the power of the police department, Pineda could have gotten away with it, without any consequences.
But George refused to let that happen. He made sure that Pineda was held accountable. THIS right here is why we do this work everyday to elect District Attorneys who will hold cops accountable.
Second, in New Orleans, Orleans Parish District Attorney Jason Williams — who we helped elect in 2020 — helped free Raymond Flanks. Raymond is a Black man who was blamed for a string of robberies and a murder back in the 1980s.
His brother testified he was home at the time of the murder he was arrested for — yet he was tried twice and held in jail for 39 YEARS.
After nearly 4 decades in prison, Jason’s agreed that withheld grand jury testimony and freshly reviewed police reports cast serious doubt on his guilt. And because of Jason’s work, Raymond was finally set FREE.
This is just one part of the amazing work that Jason’s Civil Rights Division is doing to overturn old convictions. THIS right here is why we do this work every day to elect District Attorneys who will free innocent people trapped within the justice system.
Every day, we see the incredible work our DAs are accomplishing on the ground, carrying out their campaign promises to transform the system, right the wrongs of the past, and protect the people of their community.
And when we seek out candidates to endorse, we make sure they are going to advance this movement and set examples like this for District Attorneys nationwide.
That’s why we need your help to jumpstart our next endorsement round while continuing to protect our elected DAs whose work is under attack from well-funded conservative opponents.
Thank you for your support!
