Building The Bloc. We helped elect Summer Lee, Rashida Tlaib, AOC, and more because we need a Democratic Party that fights for voters, not corporate donors.
Voters in #CO01 have had the same Congresswoman for 28 years.

Prices keep rising & authoritarianism is here, but the Dem Party is on autopilot.

We're proud to endorse @melatkirosco.bsky.social in #CO01 to bring new leadership to Denver—rooted in moral courage & unburdened by corporate PACs.

We're proud to announce our newest endorsement: @melatkirosco.bsky.social in #CO01!

A barista & renter—who lost her job as a lawyer for defending pro-Palestine protests—Melat knows Denver's struggles because she's lived them.

#CO01 needs a leader powered by courage, not corporations.

Unlike federal employees, federal *contractors* did not receive backpay when the government reopened.

I'm still fighting to make sure they do.

This isn't just a matter of fairness—it's about stability, dignity, & justice.

Israeli settlers uprooted about 850 olive and grape trees owned by Palestinians on Monday. These trees are Palestinian families’ livelihoods.

Israeli settlers are making the West Bank unlivable for Palestinians by depriving them of their income.

We're proud to endorse Darializa Avila Chevalier for Congress in #NY13!

If we want to defeat the NY political machine's stranglehold on NYC & DC, we need a working-class champion who can’t be bought by billionaire donors or corporate PACs, and that's @darializaforny.bsky.social

Let's win.

Zohran proved New Yorkers are ready to turn the page on machine politics.

#NY13 voters made that clear & it's why we're proud to endorse @DarializaforNY for Congress.

The Congress we deserve invests in babies not bombs, immigrants over ICE & renters not real estate developers.

How absolutely pathetic, your voters expected you to hold the line for their basic healthcare & food benefits. This was just surrender.

Every Senate Dem that joined Republicans to pass this sold the American people out & we should make sure they have no future in public office.

Zohran's win is what our movement's worked towards for years: electing leaders with the moral courage to unite voters against GOP authoritarianism, Dem corporatism & billionaire greed all at once

His win proves our work: primaries are a battleground to control this Party's direction.

@coribush.bsky.social was our first-ever Justice Democrat & we're proud to endorse her again because #MO01 & the nation need a fighter with a proven record to bring urgency & power for the working class in Congress.

Cori is the proof we can & should expect more from members of our Congress.

NEW: Justin Pearson of the "Tennessee 3" is challenging Rep. Steve Cohen.

There's an age dynamic: Cohen is 76, Pearson is 30.

And an ideological one: Cohen left CPC last year + is pro-Israel. Pearson says war in Gaza is a "genocide."
