Thanking ICE is their legislative priority??
Jason,
Last summer, Democratic Reps. Shri Thanedar and Steve Cohen both voted for a resolution in Congress to "express gratitude" for ICE. While Thanedar and Cohen were voting to thank ICE, Trump was actively deploying the US military to Los Angeles to crush peaceful anti-ICE protests. These are our Democratic lawmakers in action!
That's why Leaders We Deserve is proud to support Democratic primary challengers in both of these districts and usher in a new wave of Democrats who don't fold when it matters most. We can't keep electing Democrats who are this out of touch. We need young bold leaders like Donavan McKinney and Justin J. Pearson who are the best of what the next generation has to offer — not more of the status quo.
ICE is terrorizing our communities. And we need Democrats who are actively fighting back.
That's why this cycle we're challenging Democrats who have truly failed to meet this moment and are in safe congressional seats that in no way risk us losing the House. Our party cannot be seen as complicit in the invasion of our communities by masked federal agents who are there purely to terrorize communities and be Trump's paramilitary force. Our party cannot just stand by and applaud communities standing up to ICE while the Democratic Members of Congress with the real power to make change do little to nothing to stop ICE and even make it a priority to thank ICE.
If you are tired of having a party that says it can't do anything because it's in the minority and then miraculously still claims it can't do anything because of Republicans even when we have all three branches of government, now is the time to join us in this movement and build a party that actually fights back.
Jason, make a $5 contribution now, split between Donavan, Justin, and Leaders We Deserve. We deserve better Democrats — so we're electing them.
