[1]Justice Democrats
John,
Justice Democrats has done something incredible. In just a few years, they
have recruited and helped elect a strong, diverse, working-class group of
progressives to the U.S. House of Representatives that includes Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush, and Jamaal Bowman.
In March, Justice Democrats helped progressive Greg Casar win his primary
for the House in Austin, TX. And last week,
John, we lifted Summer Lee to
victory in her Democratic primary in PA-12.
Summer and Justice Democrats overcame $3 million in attack ads from the
corporate political establishment to win this primary. What establishment
Super PACs did in Summer’s race to try and defeat a working-class
progressive woman of color was disgusting and speaks to the corruption of
our political system. When we talk about billionaires and big money buying
elections, this is exactly what we are talking about. But our movement was
stronger.
Here's the truth,
John: It took tremendous
resources and effort to elect working-class primary challengers like
Summer, Alexandria, Cori, and Jamaal. Even when we’re outspent in these
races, we can win if we have the support of our grassroots movement.
Justice Democrats just launched a goal to raise $50,000 in the wake of
Summer’s victory in order to fund future primary fights against the
establishment, including Jessica Cisneros’ primary against anti-choice
Democrat Henry Cuellar tomorrow. That’s why I'm asking:

We’re building something that the political establishment hasn’t seen in
decades. The truth is, they’re scared. And they should be.
The unfortunate reality is that it takes a lot of money to run campaigns.
That's why it's so extraordinary what the progressive movement has built
together, with working people chipping in what they can to take on the
billionaire class that wants to protect the status quo.
The truth is that we are up against some very powerful special interests
that have been at war with the working class for decades. I'm talking
about Wall Street, the pharmaceutical industry, the health insurance
industry, the fossil fuel industry, the military industrial complex, the
private prison industrial complex and many profitable corporations who
continue to exploit their employees.
And these interests spent a tremendous amount of money against Summer Lee
in the PA-12 primary. But we had something that these Super PACs don't
have, and that is a powerful movement of people who are saying enough is
enough. It is time to elect candidates who will stand with working people,
not the corporate elite. Candidates who support legislation that we
desperately need in this country, like Medicare for All and a Green New
Deal.
Now, progressive candidates recruited by Justice Democrats will be up
against even worse attacks from Super PACs and corporate-backed incumbents
with unlimited sums of money.
That is why I hope you will join me today in supporting Justice Democrats
as they prepare for the fights ahead against the corporate political
establishment. Justice Democrats relies solely on grassroots donations to
recruit and elect the strongest possible working-class progressive
candidates to Congress.
[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in to support Justice Democrats today and help them reach
their $50,000 fundraising goal? I would not ask if it were not so
important.
Your contribution today will give Justice Democrats the funds it needs to
take on the political establishment’s Super PACs and elect more
progressives candidates. Thank you for chipping in today if you can afford
it.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
