But that won\u2019t keep Cori from dropping in on our Town Hall for a quick update on her razor\u2019s edge primary. Just like her fellow Squad members, Summer Lee and Jamaal Bowman, faced earlier this year, Cori is facing unprecedented spending by right-wing donors in support of her main opponent. Foremost among these donors is AIPAC\u2019s main Super-PAC, United Democracy Project. This should surprise no one, as Rep. Bush was the first member of Congress to introduce legislation calling for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, way back on October 16, 2023. History has proven Cori correct. How many tens of thousands of innocent human lives would\u2019ve been spared? Would Israel\u2019s international standing be destroyed? If only the President and Congress had heeded Cori\u2019s advice. But, of course, nothing infuriates the powers-that-be than being proven incorrect\u2014and now, as right-wing oligarchs are going after Cori with a vengeance, the more liberal super-rich sit idly by, complicit to another crime against our democracy. Indeed, it\u2019s up to us progressives to do what\u2019s right, and rally in defense of one of the most forward thinking members in the history of Congress, the representative from Missouri\u2019s first district Cori Bush! Don\u2019t miss her on this Sunday\u2019s Town Hall at 4pm ET\/1pm PT. RSVP now! We\u2019ll also get a quick update on Raquel Teran\u2019s inspiring campaign for Congress in AZ-03 where election day is Tuesday. Then, we\u2019ll be joined by Rev. Janette Wilson from Rainbow\/PUSH to tell us about their annual conference in Chicago on Thursday-through-Saturday August 15-17, that PDA is proudly co-sponsoring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PDAMERICA \u2022 Started streaming 81 minutes ago Later on Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles, PDA will be co-hosting an in-person fundraiser with Cori Bush.
