Harris,
Tomorrow, Democratic National Committee members will vote for new leadership, including the next DNC Chair.
This leadership will make critical decisions about the direction of the Democratic Party, the rules that govern Democratic candidates, and how resources are allocated in elections. The next leaders of the Party must decisively show that the party is for the people — not billionaires or corporations.
We're joining our partners at Sunrise Movement in calling on DNC leadership candidates to commit to adopting bold reforms to reduce the corrosive influence of big money in politics and prioritize working people over billionaires and special interests.
The time to end the influence of corporate money is NOW. Our open letter calls on DNC leadership candidates to pledge to:
1️⃣ Revive the Obama-era ban on corporate donations to the DNC.
2️⃣ Ban SuperPAC spending in Democratic primaries.
Right now, super PACs bankrolled by oil CEOs, crypto moguls, and GOP billionaires like Elon Musk have free reign to buy our elections, undermining candidates who represent the needs of working people. And just because these billionaires work with Republicans doesn't keep them out of Democratic primaries. In fact, Elon Musk has already threatened to intervene in Democratic primaries this cycle.
For Democrats to be taken seriously when calling out Trump's corruption, they need to show they stand for something different. That starts with rejecting corporate PAC contributions to the DNC and taking a stand against the special interests interfering in Democratic primaries. That's how we can win back working-class voters in 2026 and 2028.
Together, we can build a Democratic Party ready to take on Donald Trump and his allies while championing policies that work for everyone.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
PS — Tonight at midnight is our end-of-month deadline to raise $120,000 for our 2026 Candidate Recruitment Fund. Help us recruit and support working-class candidates for Congress who will put people before billionaires: donate now!
