We need Democrats who will fight to protect reproductive health

John, The Susan B Anthony List — a political group dedicated to electing members of Congress who don’t support abortion — just endorsed a Democratic member of Congress for re-election. That Democrat in name only is Dan Lipinski. He singlehandedly gives bipartisan cover to Republicans by chairi…

Two folks from xxxxxx

John, we have some good news and bad news: The bad news: We’re tracking behind where we should be in order to reach our goal of raising $5,000 directly for Georgette Gómez’s grassroots campaign to represent the people of California’s 53rd District. The good news: If just two folks from xxxxxx c…

Did you see our announcement?

John, here's the deal: → Democratic Representative Susan Davis in CA-53 is not seeking re-election. → Justice Democrats just endorsed Georgette Gómez in the crowded primary race. → We CAN help elect Georgette and send another progressive champion to Congress to fight for Medicare for All and th…

Breaking news: Our next endorsement

John, we have some major news: Justice Democrats just endorsed Georgette Gómez and her grassroots campaign to represent the folks in California’s 53rd District. Georgette is running to fight for our values in Congress and is supporting bold policies like Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, d…

Warhawk or peacemaker?

We have to elect Democrats who’ll side with us when it matters most. Eliot Engel spent his entire career on the wrong side of the foreign policy debate. John, It’s not enough to just elect Democrats. We have to elect Democrats who feel a sense of urgency and who’ll side with us when it matte…

Cheri Bustos

John, While on national television Congresswoman Cheri Bustos, the Chairwoman of the DCCC, refused to answer one simple question: “Is she [AOC] good for the Democratic Caucus?” The DCCC has said for months that they exist to back Democratic incumbents and support their re-election. It’s their…

RE: Refusing to pay the DCCC

John, AOC is refusing to play ‘politics as usual.’ Now she’s declining to pay the DCCC $250,000 in membership dues. She won’t support an arm of the Party that has chosen to blacklist progressives working for primary challengers. And she won’t back a DCCC that has endorsed pro-Trump, anti-choi…

We’re at a crossroads on Medicare for All

John, our country is at a crossroads on Medicare for All. There has never been more support for finally recognizing health care as a human right. But our movement is up against entrenched insurance corporations and big pharmaceutical companies that will spend big on TV ads and on politicians to…

Did you see AOC’s announcement?

John, Last night Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that she is refusing to pay $250,000 in membership dues to the DCCC in part because of their anti-democratic policy of blacklisting any organization that helps elect Democrat primary candidates. The DCCC’s decision to blacklist any organizatio…

Did you see what AOC just tweeted?

John, The news just broke that AOC is refusing to pay the DCCC $250,000 in membership dues because of their policy of blacklisting any organization that supports primary candidates. Instead of contributing to the DCCC’s million dollar corporate slush fund that protects entrenched incumbents, …

Did you see our announcement yesterday?

John, Yesterday we launched a really important fundraising goal for this month! We have to raise $130,000 in January to make sure our insurgent candidates win on election day. We’re just about a third of the way through the month and right now we’re not on pace to hit our goal, we’re behind b…

Primary season is nearly upon us!

John, we need to hit the ground running. Our eight endorsed candidates all have quickly approaching primary elections! There are only 8 weeks until voters will begin casting votes either for or against our diverse, working-class champions. We need to have the resources to do everything we can …

Henry Cuellar is in the pocket of defense contractors

John, While other Democratic members of Congress are condemning Trump’s attacks on Iran, Henry Cuellar is refusing to condemn the strikes. Cuellar was also one of the seven Democrats who voted against Ro Khanna’s amendment to stop President Trump from taking unilateral action against Iran wit…

No war in Iran

John, Last night, President Trump took unilateral action to push the United States to the brink of war. Now, we are seeing a terrible escalation between Iran and the US. Trump’s attack last night happened with zero congressional oversight or approval. But a pointless, bloody war can still be …

We need your help!

John, With your support, we shocked the world by helping elect AOC, Ilhan, Rashida, and Ayanna in 2018. The Squad beat their corporate-backed opponents even though they had far less money. Do you know what our secret was? Hundreds of volunteers like you across the country made tens of thousan…

Thank you!

We’re facing our end of year deadline in just a few hours. What we raise tonight could determine the amount of resources we’re able to provide to our eight insurgent candidates. John, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your support this last year and ask you to make your first contri…

What we achieve by fighting together

John, we know that a brighter future is possible. We can guarantee racial, social, economic, and environmental justice to everyone, but we’re going to have to fight for it. We need bold, fearless members of Congress who are willing to buck the establishment to achieve that progress. That’s why …

Taking on the DCCC

John, Our average contribution this year is just $15.99 — proving that JD is a grassroots funded organization; powered by folks just like you. We need to have the resources to take on the DCCC who will spend big to protect entrenched incumbents in 2020 and Republican dark money groups who wil…

Why $185,000 matters

John, our fundraising goal of $185,000 isn’t a made-up goal. $185,000 is the same amount of money we raised at our peak this year in July. And since our fundraising has gone down a little since then, $185,000 is exactly what we need to make the most for our slate in 2020. This month’s fundrais…

Ahead of 2020

The DCCC raised $12,000,000 in October

We might not make it
