John,

As we approach the end of the year, my sister in service, Congresswoman
Summer Lee and I are facing major challenges in 2024, and we need your
support now more than ever.

AIPAC (the right-wing PAC funded by Republican mega-donors that supported
over 100 insurrectionist members of Congress), is now targeting a group of
Black and brown progressives in Congress, including Summer and I. 

A few weeks back, they announced their plan to spend a staggering $100
million worth of vicious attack ads to defeat us in the 2024 elections.
Why? Because we are unapologetically standing for justice, humanity, and
peace in Washington.

[ [link removed] ]We need your help to counter the $100 million dollar smear campaign
they’re planning against us – and the way we close out this fundraising
quarter will determine the strength our movement has to fight back. We are
asking you today to split a donation between our campaigns.

As the first Black Congresswomen representing each of our states, Summer
and I understand the struggle that under-represented communities face and
the value of true solidarity. The reason that we’re both advocating for a
ceasefire and human rights for Palestinians is because we understand the
struggle for equality and civil rights. We’re mere generations removed
from the enslavement of Black people. If people didn’t stand with our
ancestors for civil rights and liberation, we would not be in the position
we’re in today. So we must do the same for others, no matter where they
are being oppressed. It is only when we work together that we can overcome
inequality.

We've chosen to prioritize people over corporate interests, and our
commitment to equal rights, freedoms, and peace has made some powerful
groups very uncomfortable. We are being targeted because we are effective
in bringing about change that challenges the status quo.

Our end-of-year goals are looming, and it's crucial that we finish strong.
This is more than just a fundraising target—it's a statement. It's about
showing those who oppose us that our resolve is unshakable and our
movement is powered by people who won’t back down to big money.

We are both facing opponents bankrolled by the same Republican
billionaires that bribed SCOTUS – threatening our re-election and the
people-powered movement we’ve all worked so hard to build. The reality is
that they have access to hundreds of millions of dollars that we, relying
on the power of the people and refusing to take corporate PAC money,
simply do not.

[ [link removed] ]We need your help to counter the massive smear campaign they’re
planning against us. Your support can make a real difference in this
fight. By splitting a donation between Summer and I, you're not just
contributing to our individual campaigns – you're investing in a movement
that champions equity, justice, and true representation for all.

Your contribution today is an investment in a future where every voice is
heard and valued. It's a commitment to a Congress that prioritizes people,
not profit. It’s a fight against the influence of big money in politics.

Let's finish this year with a strong message: We stand together,
unwavering in our pursuit of a just and equitable society. Your support
means everything to us, and together, we can and we will overcome the
odds.

Our pro-peace, pro-humanity movement will prevail.

In solidarity,
