Last summer, Reps. Hakeem Jeffries and Josh Gottheimer launched Team Blue PAC to protect corporate Democrats from progressive primary challengers. Back in June, we predicted that Team Blue PAC would be another way for corporate Democrats to raise money from corporate donors to protect themselves and the interests of their donors.
FEC numbers were just released and we were right: Team Blue PAC is being funded by corporations and their lobbyists.
We know that Team Blue PAC and its corporate donors will do whatever they can this cycle to defeat our progressive primary challengers. Will you chip in $10 so we can stop them?

Subject: re: Team Blue PAC
In 2018, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez stunned the political establishment when she defeated out of touch incumbent Joe Crowley.
In 2020, Cori Bush, Jamaal Bowman, and Marie Newman all beat corporate Democrats backed by Wall Street, the defense industry, and Big Pharma.
Now, the 4th most powerful Democrat in the House, Hakeem Jeffries, and one of the most conservative Democrats in Congress, Josh Gottheimer, have teamed up to launch “Team Blue PAC” to protect corporate Democrats from primary challengers like Justice Democrats.
Team Blue PAC is a response to the strength of our movement and the threat that Justice Democrats — and the working-class progressives running for office — pose to the Democratic establishment. House Democrats know that Justice Democrats govern according to their values, not the influence of Wall Street or corporate money, and have launched Team Blue PAC to protect themselves and their corporate donors.
When you donate to Justice Democrats, you send a message to the Democratic establishment that we need more people like AOC, Cori Bush, and Jamaal Bowman in Congress — who will push for policies to address the overlapping economic injustice, racial inequality, and public health crises we are facing. Team Blue PAC will spend big money this cycle to defeat Justice Democrats. Will you chip in $10 so we can stop them?
House Democrats are targeting Justice Democrats because they know that the working class people we elect to Congress will take principled positions that are not popular with Wall Street. While Justice Democrats fight to fundamentally transform politics, Team Blue PAC and the Democratic establishment are fighting just as hard to maintain the status quo. Will you join us in this fight by chipping in $10 right now?
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
