Friend,
Next week marks the anniversary of one of the most shocking and
dangerous attacks on our democracy — January 6.
Two years later, the white nationalists who led the insurrection in
Trump’s name are still seeking to undermine our democracy.
At Bend the Arc, we have a plan to defeat the right-wing movement
attacking our communities and trying to seize power for the few:
We fight for our
shared future through solidarity, joining together across racial and
religious differences to build the country we know is
possible.
Last Thursday, the Jan. 6 select committee released its final
report, concluding that Trump was the “central cause”
of what happened that day, and made four criminal referrals
for Trump to the Justice Department.1
Our movements to resist Trump contributed to this
moment. For more than 10 years, Bend the Arc has been leading
the Jewish fight for justice — from the groundbreaking Obama years,
through the relentless years of the Trump administration, to
mobilizing for justice around the country in 2022.
With your support, we will continue to organize
Jews and allies, educate elected officials about how
to fight antisemitism and racism through
solidarity, train the next generation of Jewish
leaders, and win elections and meaningful policy
change.
In solidarity, The Bend the Arc team
