We are.
We are supporters of “Justice Democrats”:https://www.justicedemocrats.com, a nonprofit organization devoted to helping progressive candidates run for office as democrats to help transform the party from within. Their platform includes universal health care, free tuition at public universities and trade schools, protecting women’s rights, ending racism, and *getting corporate money out of politics*. We suggest you read more about them “here”:https://www.justicedemocrats.com/about
We’ve put together a couple of great fundraising shows for this coming weekend, to help raise awareness about Justice Democrats, and to support two local Congressional candidates: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY 14) and Jess King (PA 11). The bills are great, and admission is just ten bucks. Here are the details:
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26 – music starts at 9PM:

The venue is FM, which is at 240 3rd Street in Jersey City. Representatives from Justice Democrats will be on hand to sign up volunteers for last-minute canvassing and phonebanking for the 26 candidates they’ve endorsed who are running for Congress. You can make a difference. You can move the needle. And you can have fun at two great shows. Come on down.
