The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) set a Q2 record by raising $40.7 million from Wall Street, corporate PACs, billionaires, and Big Pharma CEOs.
The DCCC recruits corporate Democrats and protects establishment incumbents while taking money from Wall Street and corporate PACs. All that money goes towards stopping progressive legislation like Medicare for All and a Green New Deal.
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. Instead, corporate Democrats defeated Jessica Cisneros and Kina Collins with attack ads and corporate Super PACs.
This quarter, will you help us raise just .011% of what the DCCC raised last quarter? Chip in $10 to help raise what we need to re-elect the Squad and expand our progressive movement. We know the odds and big money are stacked against us, but we’ve won before and we will continue our fight.
Over a 3-month period, we’re working on a budget that’s a tiny fraction of $40.7 million. We’re proud of the work we do and we’re proud that we’re fully funded by grassroots supporters — Justice Democrats doesn’t take a cent of corporate PAC money.
Every election we win, we advance our progressive vision for America and shake the political status quo. And we do this work because we need a Democratic Party that fights for its voters, not corporate donors. JD does the hard work of recruiting, training, fundraising, and organizing with bold, progressive candidates.
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
