John,

On this day last year, Justice Democrats helped launch the Reject AIPAC
coalition, a broad alliance of progressive groups committed to taking on
the American Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and its affiliated dark
money Super PACs that lobby Congress for unconditional support for Israel
while spending hundreds of millions of dollars attacking progressive
Pro-Palestinian candidates in Democratic primaries.

Over the last two years, we’ve watched AIPAC do everything in its power to
silence growing dissent in Congress against the Netanyahu administration’s
genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, even as voters continue to
overwhelmingly support a permanent ceasefire and oppose sending more blank
checks to the Israeli military.

The lobby group’s far-right network spent $126.9 million — more money than
ever before — in the 2024 election cycle, especially targeting pro-peace
Representatives Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman in their Democratic primaries
with more money than has ever been spent in a Democratic primary. AIPAC
succeeded in replacing these working-class Squad members with weak,
corporate-backed Democrats who refuse to hold the Israeli and U.S.
governments accountable to federal and international law.

With the impact of November’s massive Democratic losses being felt under a
MAGA super majority right now, the Party must finally learn its lesson and
stop relying on this toxic lobby network for campaign contributions.
AIPAC’s Republican donor-funded Super PAC is no doubt preparing to spend
even more money in the 2026 primaries targeting the remaining
working-class, progressive, Black and brown members of Congress who have
led the calls for an end to US-funded genocide. And they'll keep spending
millions protecting the same Do-Nothing corporate Democrats who work
harder to defend Israel in Congress than defeat Donald Trump and Elon
Musk.

We cannot let a dark money Super PAC that has endorsed 109 insurrectionist
election deniers and over 200 anti-abortion extremists, and is funded by
Trump’s megadonors, continue to undermine our democracy at a time like
this.

AIPAC's spending embodies the corrupt campaign finance system ushered in
by Citizens United — giving billionaires the power to buy Congressional
seats at the expense of the voice of everyday voters.

once and for all. If you agree, keep up the fight and fuel our work by

If our Party wants to earn back the trust of its own base, it cannot keep
taking money from the same right-wing billionaire-funded lobbies and Super
PACs that got us here in the first place.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
