This is Congressman Ro Khanna. Yesterday, I was campaigning in New Jersey with a leader we need in Congress: Analilia Mejia.

My friends at the PCCC, who have endorsed Analilia and also been on the ground with her campaign, asked me to share why I think this week's special primary for Congress is so important.

Analilia has been fighting for working families her whole life. She’s an organizer who knows how to win tough battles, and she’s never been afraid to speak truth to power.

Before I explain, will you rush a split contribution between Analilia’s campaign, mine, and the PCCC right now? This Democratic primary election is Thursday and every dollar you give will fuel a people-powered GET OUT THE VOTE effort to send a fearless leader to Congress.

Analilia’s story is the story of so many New Jersey families.

She’s the daughter of Colombian and Dominican immigrants, raised by a seamstress and a factory worker who struggled to make ends meet. She grew up seeing the power of community, grit, and kindness firsthand.

That experience made her who she is: A fighter. A builder. A woman who won’t back down. She has:

✅Led the fight for a $15 minimum wage — and won

✅Delivered paid sick leave

✅Taken on corruption in both parties

✅Served in the Biden Administration

✅Helped lead Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign

✅Battled Trumpism at every turn

She is running for Congress because working families need someone who understands struggle and will never sell out to big-money special interests.

And unlike too many in politics today, Analilia refuses corporate PAC money. She’s building a people-powered campaign from the ground up.

But she needs our help to win the special Democratic primary THIS WEEK.

👉 Will you split a contribution between Analilia, my campaign, and the PCCC today?

With democracy under attack and working families squeezed from every direction, we need leaders with courage.

Analilia Mejia is one of the boldest, fiercest organizers I know.

Let’s send her to Congress.

Onward,

– Ro Khanna
