The Voice of Jewish Democrats

March 10, 2023

JDCA is the national voice of Jewish Democrats. From the New York Times to the Jerusalem Post, JDCA is representing Jewish Democrats on the issues that matter most, and we’re proud to play this role.

Your support and involvement have helped JDCA grow and become the organization that Jewish Democrats consider their political home. JDCA is the only national organization exclusively targeting Jewish voters in support of Democrats. Your support helps us advocate for the policy priorities shared by the overwhelming majority of Jewish voters and elect Democratic candidates who share our values.

Visit our media center to read more about our recent work advocating for democracy in the U.S. and Israel and our endorsement of Judge Janet Protasiewicz for the Supreme Court in Wisconsin’s upcoming election on April 4.

Also this week, some of the many women leaders affiliated with JDCA attended a special forum at the White House honoring Jewish women in commemoration of Women’s History Month and Purim. Speakers included Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff and Amb. Deborah Lipstadt and the event underscored the Biden-Harris administration’s steadfast commitment to the Jewish community, combating antisemitism, supporting the US-Israel relationship, uplifting women leaders, and promoting gender equality.

GOTV IN WISCONSIN

We are mobilizing the Jewish vote in Wisconsin ahead of the April 4 special election for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Join us in getting out the vote in Wisconsin by attending a virtual phone bank in support of Judge Janet Protasiewicz.

MEET THE MEMBER: REP. BRAD SCHNEIDER

For this week’s installment of our Meet the Members series, we are featuring Rep. Brad Schneider (IL-10). Rep. Schneider, who was named to the House Foreign Affairs Committee this week, has been an unwavering supporter of Israel, a friend of JDCA, and an ally in Congress. Just this week, alongside Rep. Jerry Nadler (NY-12), he led a letter of Jewish members of Congress expressing concerns — which we share — regarding the proposed judicial overhaul in Israel. Take a look at what Rep. Schneider shared with us on what makes him a proud Jewish Dem:
