It’s official: Rashida Tlaib has an opponent

John, When we defend and protect voices like Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s in Congress, we know that we will have a partner who understands the importance of centering policy around people, not profits. Now more than ever, we need to keep Rashida in Congress. Rashida is being targeted by the right w…

John, will you take a moment to thank Bernie Sanders?

John, Bernie Sanders sparked a political revolution in this country that changed our entire political landscape and made us all reimagine what’s politically possible. In just a few years, Bernie galvanized a movement that made Medicare for All, free college, legalizing marijuana, rejecting…

Bernie Sanders

John, We’ve seen this question asked a few times over the last week: What’s next for progressives now that Bernie’s campaign for president has been suspended? Here’s the answer: That same revolution for justice continues with us, and with you, John. It will carry forward in the hearts and …

Help us show everyone that the DCCC’s blacklist policy is no match for our movement

John, this is urgent. Morgan Harper’s primary election against Joyce Beatty in Ohio’s 3rd district is in just 18 days! There are less than three weeks until this pivotal primary election. With only 18 days until the election, every single contribution made to Morgan Harper matters. We’ve see…

The DCCC has millions of dollars in the bank

John, The DCCC raised over $17,000,000 in February. They have millions of dollars in the bank that they can use to protect the establishment and help entrenched incumbents win re-election. We’re aiming to raise $175,000 this month to help our progressive primary challengers win and defeat …

The DCCC’s blacklist policy makes challenging an entrenched incumbent even tougher

John, Cori Bush is running for office as a primary challenger in Missouri’s 1st district. As a single mother, a registered nurse, an ordained pastor, and an organizer fighting police brutality, Cori Bush has lived a life of service to her community. Unfortunately, Cori has been hospitalize…

We can’t slow down

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. But unfortunately, over the last few weeks our fundraising has taken a little bit of a dip. We’re setting a goal to raise $175,000 in Ap…

Will you contribute before midnight tonight to help us get as close as possible to reaching our $185,000 goal?

John, We’re going to keep this short because we know it’s late. The DCCC raised over $17 million dollars last month. That is a whole lotta money to protect entrenched incumbents. We’re facing our end-of-quarter deadline in just a few hours and need to ask one more time: Will you contribu…

Together we took on an entrenched incumbent and won.

John, Going toe to toe with a corporate-backed incumbent and all of the power structures that exist to protect the status quo is one of the hardest things to do within our current political system. But Justice Democrats was with me and our grassroots campaign, providing support to help u…

Thank you

John, Whether you can afford to contribute $5 or $50, every single donation matters and goes a long way in powering our organization and helping us elect more progressive candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar. We don’t have billionaire benefactors, and we don’t take a dim…

$17,100,000

John, When the DCCC announced their policy to blacklist vendors who work on progressive primary campaigns, 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…

The stakes are too high for us to not try.

Our jaws dropped when we saw these new numbers from the DCCC

John, We just found out that the DCCC raised $17,100,000 in February. That is a whole lotta money for them to spend on protecting entrenched incumbents like Eliot Engel in NY-16 and Richard Neal in MA-01. If we raise just 1% of what the DCCC raised last month, that would put us in a great …

The blacklist was supposed to stop us. But it didn’t.

The DCCC’s hypocrisy
