We proudly endorse Summer Lee.
“I am honored to have received the endorsement of IfNotNow and have been constantly inspired by your leadership fighting for a future with peace, dignity, and justice for all people — free from antisemitism, islamophobia and bigotry in all its forms. Thank you for your brilliant organizing, your compassion, your forceful rejection of the false choice between Palestinian and Jewish safety, and your commitment to a just and lasting peace with safety and security for Palestinians and Israelis alike.” - Rep. Summer Lee
Rep. Lee’s first term in Congress has been marked by the strength of her convictions and her ability to deliver results to her constituents in western Pennsylvania. Summer’s district includes Pittsburgh, where in 2018 the historically Jewish neighborhood of Squirrel Hill was rocked by the deadliest antisemitic attack on record in the U.S. During her term, Summer has worked to help our community heal, including by securing federal funding for construction of a memorial at the site of the Tree of Life shooting. Since October 7, Summer has helped lead the call for a lasting ceasefire in Congress, speaking with moral clarity about the rights of Palestinians and Jews to live free from fear of war and violence. Moreover, Summer has delivered $1 billion in investments for her district in just one year in Congress, including for sustainable infrastructure, affordable housing, and projects securing access to clean water.
IfNotNow Movement re-endorses Summer Lee for Pennsylvania’s 12th district.
