It’s official — the DCCC will not back down from their anti-progressive blacklist.
In 2019, the DCCC announced they would blacklist vendors and experts who worked with progressives challenging incumbents. That type of policy would have hurt candidates like Ayanna Pressley, Ro Khanna, and Alexandria herself.
The outcry was clear: Democratic voters weren’t happy with the DCCC putting its hand on the scales. But they refused to budge. That policy will endure through 2020.
So we’re taking a stand. We want to raise $1,000,000 by January 31st to reelect AOC and support progressive candidates. Can you donate $3 to help us?

Pulling off this goal will send a message to the DCCC that they shouldn’t write candidates like AOC off just because they’re challenging an incumbent.
To them, protecting conservative incumbents like Dan Lipinski or Henry Cuellar — people who support pro-life policies and regularly vote with Donald Trump — is a more important goal than electing new leaders who truly represent the voters.
We can’t count on the DCCC to elect leaders who support our progressive values. That’s why AOC launched Courage to Change this month, a PAC dedicated to supporting red-to-blue progressives and working-class candidates.
Meeting a $1,000,000 goal in the same month as we announce a PAC that will make up for the failures of the DCCC sends a clear message about the power of progressives to the DCCC. Chip in $3 to help us meet this goal:

Our message is simple: The DCCC should let democracy take its course. Let the voters decide who should represent them, not corporate donors or an out-of-touch establishment.
In solidarity,
Team AOC
