Her billionaire-funded opponent is trying to buy the race

Urgent: Justice Democrat Georgette Gómez is facing a tough primary next Tuesday. Her billionaire-funded opponent is trying to buy the race. Will you make a split donation to Georgette Gómez and JD to help Georgette fight back? John, We’ll start with some good news: Justice Democrat Ge…

Kara Eastman

We have a rare opportunity to replace a Trump loyalist who votes against affordable health care, fair immigration policies, and common-sense gun reform with a bold, progressive leader. John, We have a shot at expanding the Demcratic House majority by flipping a seat from red to blue and elec…

Bernie

John, this is incredible! The naysayers in Washington have doubted Bernie’s campaign for over a year. In a diverse electorate that looks the most like Super Tuesday states, Democrats in Nevada chose Bernie Sanders as their candidate to defeat Donald Trump. It’s clear that the Democratic voters …

Nancy Pelosi’s conduct is utterly shameful

Nancy Pelosi is stumping for Trump’s favorite Democrat. Nancy Pelosi: “We want this to be not only a victory, but a resounding victory for Henry Cuellar.” Split a contribution with Jessica Cisneros right now to elect a progressive in TX-28 in just 10 days. John, While in Texas, Nancy…

Did you see AOC’s announcement?

John, This morning, Courage to Change — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s new PAC — endorsed both Georgette Gómez and Kara Eastman! Courage to Change is building out the infrastructure to back more progressive, insurgent candidates who will fight for our values in Congress. This is the kind of progr…

Last night’s debate

John, Last night’s debate made one thing clear: progressive ideas are at the center of debate in the Democratic Party. With your support, we’ve pushed the conversation on the national stage. Many of the topics discussed last night — Medicare for All, wealth taxes, a Green New Deal — were orig…

Now is the time to volunteer to elect Jessica Cisneros in TX-28

John, In 2018, we took the entire Democratic establishment by surprise and, in a single moment, re-wrote all the rules on what a working-class person can achieve in our political system. The secret is, it wasn’t a single moment — it was hundreds of volunteers like you all across the country, …

Will you step up for the first time?

Our first primary elections are just 16 days away. The next 16 days will be absolutely critical for our movement to elect diverse, working-class champions who will transform the Democratic Party. John, Our first primary elections are just 16 days away. The next 16 days will be absolutely crit…

Michael ‘Billionaire’ Bloomberg

What we need from you today, John

John, We found out that the DCCC raised $12,100,000 last month. That is a whole lotta money for them to spend on protecting entrenched incumbents like Dan Lipinski and Henry Cuellar. If we raise just 1.3% of what the DCCC raised last month, then that would put us in a great position to fund a…

18 days

Breaking: Henry Cuellar joins the DCCC for a fundraiser in Texas. Can you make a split donation to Jessica Cisneros and JD to say you’re DONE with corporate Democrats in Congress? John, this is shocking. Congressman Henry Cuellar is holding a fundraiser with Nancy Pelosi for the DCCC in…

Just 1.3%

John, The DCCC just reported that it raised $12,100,000 last month. That is a whole lotta money to protect the entrenched incumbents who aren’t fighting for progress but would rather compromise with Trump and the Republican Party. Our goal is to raise $150,000 this month — we need to raise ju…

You might have seen Alexandra Rojas on CNN lately...

John, If you were watching CNN last night, you might have seen JD’s Executive Director, Alexandra Rojas, discussing the results from the New Hampshire primary. Take a look: For too long, mainstream media has ignored insurgent candidates and hasn’t brought the political perspective of our mov…

New Hampshire

John, wow! Bernie Sanders had a BIG win in New Hampshire last night. Two states in a row, the people of Iowa and New Hampshire have voted to back a progressive populist for the White House. Voters are showing that the key to beating Trump isn’t moderation, it’s motivation. Exit polls showed a s…

A little bit of a dip

John, Justice Democrats operates on a budget one-tenth the size of many other political organizations and nonprofits. We can make a dollar go pretty far and with your support we’ve changed the conversation on so many progressive issues in our country. But unfortunately, over the last few week…

Shocking

Yesterday Henry Cuellar was one of just a few Democrats in Congress to vote with Trump against a pro-union, pro-worker bill that passed through the House. Breaking: Henry Cuellar votes with Trump again. Can you make a split donation to Jessica Cisneros and JD to say you’re DONE with corpora…

Our jaws just dropped

Yesterday, we found out that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce started a six-figure ad buy to defeat Justice Democrat Jessica Cisneros in TX-28! This conservative lobbyist group is terrified of what Jessica’s election would mean for our progressive movement and so they are spending big to try and stop…

Bloomberg

John, this is what corruption looks like. After the 2016 election, the DNC set rules to require any 2020 presidential campaign to meet a polling threshold + number of donors threshold to make it onto the official debate stage. They stuck to the rules at first. Even though they prevented Julián …

Are DNC members trying to rig the primary?

The DNC should let voters decide, not party insiders. That’s the whole point of the primary and of democracy. John, this is bad news. Politico is reporting that DNC members at an executive committee meeting were discussing reversing the rule that says superdelegates can’t vote until the second …

Will you join our small dollar movement today by chipping in to help us close the gap and hit our goal of raising 5% of what the DCCC raised last month?

When the DCCC announced their blacklist policy, they made it clear that they would rather protect entrenched incumbents than see more candidates like Ayanna Pressley or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez get elected to Congress. We’re aiming to raise just 5% of DCCC’s $14.4 million dollar haul last month…

We have some good news and bad news

John, we have some good news and bad news: The bad news: We’re running a little bit behind on hitting our goal of raising just 5% of what the DCCC raised last month. But here’s the good news: If just one in four people who received this email each chips in $8.75, then we’d get back on track bef…

Two supporters from xxxxxx to hit our goal

Do you agree with AOC?

John, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is declining to pay DCCC membership dues because of their anti-democratic blacklisting policy. The DCCC’s blacklist policy puts our endorsed primary challengers at a huge disadvantage and was an attempt to bully insurgent candidates into not running. We’re fightin…

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

John, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just said something incredibly important: “We don’t have a left party in the United States. The Democratic Party is not a left party. The Democratic Party is a center, or a center-conservative party.” There’s a battle for the soul of the Democratic Party. If y…

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…
