[ [link removed] ]Summer Lee for Congress
John,
Summer Lee [ [link removed] ]recently spoke out after a Republican member of Congress
used his platform to promote collective blame, dehumanization, and calls
for mass punishment against Muslim people — language that echoes some of
the darkest chapters of history.
Rather than condemning violence or protecting public safety, this member
of Congress invoked horrific acts of terror to vilify an entire community,
suggested that Muslim Americans are inherently dangerous, and called for
policies like mass deportations, citizenship revocations, and religious
bans.
That kind of rhetoric is incredibly dangerous.
And what makes it even more alarming is that Speaker Mike Johnson has
continued to allow this behavior to go unchecked within his caucus.

enable it — please click here and consider making a contribution to
support Summer Lee’s work today.
Summer has been clear and unequivocal: Muslim communities are not
scapegoats. They are our neighbors, our constituents, our coworkers, and
our loved ones. No one should be targeted, threatened, or stripped of
their rights because of who they are or how they worship.
When elected officials use their power to normalize collective punishment
and religious hatred, they put real people in danger and they degrade the
moral foundation of our democracy.
This is not an isolated incident. It is part of a broader pattern of
leadership failure in the House. And that’s EXACTLY why next year is so
critical.
Next year, we have the opportunity to flip the House, end the culture of
impunity that allows this rhetoric to flourish, and build a Congress that
reflects our shared values of dignity, safety, and equal rights. Summer is
ready to do that work, holding leadership accountable, and standing up for
communities that are too often targeted and silenced.
But building that kind of Congress takes organizing, early resources, and
a strong grassroots movement.
[ [link removed] ]So, if you can, please consider chipping in today to help re-elect
Summer Lee. Because every time she speaks out against hate and
Islamophobia, right-wing billionaires and special-interest groups put a
bigger target on her back.
This is how we draw the line. This is how we protect our communities. And
this is how we change Congress.
Thank you for always having our back,
— Team Summer Lee
