John, we have to talk about AIPAC and what they did this last election cycle.
AIPAC — a group that claims to be bipartisan — showed everyone their true colors this year when they spent millions of dollars against Summer Lee, both in the primary election and in the general election when they failed to defeat her.
AIPAC and DMFI spent an obscene amount of money against us this cycle. They ran hateful, divisive attack ads against our candidates while endorsing hundreds of extremist Republicans who want to overturn the 2020 election results.
AIPAC isn’t going to stop attacking us or our candidates. They are going to keep working for Republican control of Congress. AIPAC is a dangerous threat to the success of our progressive movement, to free and fair elections, and even the future of our democracy.
Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have both rang the alarm on AIPAC, saying:
Bernie Sanders: “This is a war for the future of the Democratic Party.”
AOC: “AIPAC is working for Republican control of Congress and further destabilization of U.S. democracy.”
We’re in a fight for the soul of the Democratic Party.
Democratic Party leadership must denounce AIPAC and their active campaigning for a Republican majority in Congress. But even if Democratic Party leaders don’t step up, we will stand strong and continue to make sure people know what AIPAC is doing to hurt Democrats.
Our fundraising continues to decline and we really need your support to be sure we have the resources to go up against AIPAC and their million dollar war-chest.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
