John,
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) has raised $252.9 million this election cycle from corporations, hedge funds, Big Oil, and billionaires.
The DCCC uses its millions to recruit candidates who oppose Medicare for All and a Green New Deal. They take huge checks from Democratic mega-donors and work to block the transformative policies we desperately need.
On the other hand, Justice Democrats operates on a tiny fraction of the DCCC’s budget. We’re fueled by grassroots donations and we help elect candidates leading the fight for health care for all, urgent action to address the climate crisis, full student debt cancellation, and much more.
John, we could completely change politics with the kind of money the DCCC raises. We very likely would have won all of our primaries against the establishment this year with that money.
While the DCCC raises huge sums of money to support establishment candidates and keep the Democratic Party status quo alive, Justice Democrats is fighting back.
We’re building a solid base of progressives in Congress fighting for Medicare for All, racial justice, a Green New Deal — and we’re doing it with an incredibly low budget. But the reality is we could be doing more if we had more resources to go against the DCCC.
We appreciate anything you can give and all the ways you support our movement. We know we can only do this together with you.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
