Election Day was a tough blow for Democrats — most notably in Virginia, where former Governor Terry McAuliffe lost to Republican businessman Glenn Youngkin in a state that Joe Biden won by 10 points last November.
Even before Election Day, centrist Democrats blamed dwindling poll numbers on the progressives who stood with the American people and refused to pass the Republican-backed infrastructure bill without critical investments in paid family leave, Medicare expansion, and more. Corporate Democrats have no one to blame but themselves.
We’ve seen this play out before. When corporate Democrats lose elections, they blame progressives. But it’s clear that Democrats have failed to meet the urgency of this moment — and the American people are taking notice.
The Democratic Party establishment isn’t working anymore. Democrats have lost elections in “blue states” and have failed to pass the President’s agenda even with a majority in Congress. Our progressive coalition in Congress and candidates can be a force for much-needed change. Will you donate $10 right now to elect progressives and transform the Democratic Party?
For months, progressives in Congress have been fighting for necessary and popular investments to expand the social safety net and invest in climate action, but centrist Democrats — and the corporations that back them — have gotten in the way.
Last night’s election highlights the urgency of getting big things done and electing the diverse, working-class progressives who will deliver.
AOC, Pramila Jayapal, Cori Bush, and Justice Democrats are the future of the Democratic Party. Give right now, whatever you can, to help us elect more progressive champions to fight alongside the Squad. Every dollar makes a significant impact since we rely on grassroots support.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
