'Protect The Squad' fundraising site launches to bolster far-left lawmakers as primary threats loom

House Democrats in the ultra-progressive "Squad" are being bolstered by a new joint fundraising venture as they face mounting threats to their jobs.

The "Protect The Squad" website that was launched by Justice Democrats, a progressive PAC, appears to have been launched within the last week and is linked to Democratic fundraising giant ActBlue. It is the latest effort to insulate a group of progressive lawmakers who have faced bipartisan backlash over their harsh rhetoric toward Israel after Hamas' Oct. 7 surprise attack.

"Every member of the Squad is up for re-election this year, and five of these young, working-class, Black and brown progressives are facing serious threats to their U.S. House seats: Jamaal Bowman, Cori Bush, Summer Lee, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib," the website stated.

"With right-wing megadonor-funded groups like AIPAC and Moderate PAC threatening to drop upwards of $100 million on attack ads and hand-picked challengers to unseat these Squad members, we need to come together to combat their attacks with the power of our grassroots movement."

Of the "Squad" members listed – which notably excludes Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., one of the group's original members – Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., is the only one not yet facing a primary challenger.
