John,

Steve King, the notoriously racist member of Congress representing Iowa’s
4th District, actually spent time on the House floor last week complaining
about being called a white nationalist.

This is the same guy who told the New York Times last year, “White
nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that
language become offensive?”

Of course that comment isn’t anything new. King has made a litany of
racist comments throughout his time in office, traveled to Austria for an
interview with a far-right propagandist during which he touted his beliefs
that those of white European descent are superior over others, and
defended white nationalists time and time again.

In fact, the white nationalist website The Daily Stormer even called him
“one of their own.” Only now in 2020 when King is facing his toughest
challenge to re-election in his career does he suddenly have a problem
with it.

It goes without saying, but King shouldn’t have been elected to Congress
in the first place fifteen years ago. This November, we can defeat King,
kicking him out of the House and replacing him with DFA-endorsed
progressive Democrat J.D. Scholten.

King spent his time on the House floor last week not advocating for
legislation that will help his constituents, but instead attacking
journalists for calling him what he’s outright claimed to be: a white
nationalist.

He went on and on with his right-wing conspiracy theories that Democrats
conspired with Jewish billionaire philanthropist George Soros (a common
anti-semetic talking point of the right) to accuse all conservatives of
racism, white nationalism, and Naziism.

You know what J.D. would do if he was in the House right now? Fight for
Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, stand up for working families and
farmers, and be a true representative of ALL the people of Iowa.

J.D. lost to King by just 2,500 votes (that’s only 3%) in 2018, in a
district that Donald Trump won by 27% in 2016. We can get J.D. over the
finish line in 2020, but only with your help.

won’t soon forget or ignore the fact that he’s a white nationalist >>

Thanks,
