In 2017, we shocked the justice system establishment when the people elected Larry Krasner to be the DA of Philadelphia. 4 years later, he’s up for re-election, and this round might be even harder than the first one.
The most powerful defenders of the old status quo — police unions, conservative prosecutors, and their millionaire friends — are gearing up to spend MILLIONS to beat our candidates, all because they refuse to play by their racist, antiquated, violent rulebook.
These right wing extremists even started a ‘Protect our Police PAC,’ filled its campaign coffers with hundreds of thousands of dollars from the racist grandson of a robber baron, and are recruiting candidates for elections all across the country.
This is an off year. Trump is out. They think they can catch us off guard and fire up their members with lies and incendiary attacks.
WE can’t let that happen. Can you chip in now to fight back against these right-wing attacks? Our DAs need as much support as they can get.
Every day, there are powerful DAs nationwide who wake up and do the hard work that they were elected to do: reducing the number of people needlessly in cages, addressing the harms caused by racist policing, and investing in community solutions that work.
And every day, they’re being put through the ringer by police unions, the justice establishment, and right-wing billionaires.
These attacks are proof that our movement is gaining ground, but we have to keep up the momentum, right here, right now.
