Rabbi Yitzchak taught that “A ruler is not to be appointed unless the community is consulted.”

— Babylonian Talmud Berachot 55a

DC needs leaders who will represent all of us, and who are accountable to the whole community. That’s why we vote, and why we take seriously Rabbi Yitzchak’s teaching that community input is essential for choosing who will lead our city.

And it’s why the JUFJ Campaign Fund was founded ten years ago — to help elect leaders who will fight for our Jewish values, to advocate for issues that matter to the whole DC community, and to hold our representatives to the commitments they make.

Mazel Tov to all of our 2022 endorsed candidates!

We are proud to have supported an amazing slate of candidates in DC’s elections in 2022. Whether they won or lost, we know that all of them are going on to do amazing work for justice in DC.

As Jews, we know that every vote is sacred, just as every person is sacred. Every single one of us is entitled to a say in our democracy. We are so proud to be part of a powerful local progressive movement in DC and Maryland.

Janeese Lewis George for Ward 4

Councilmember Janeese Lewis George has been a champion of paid family and medical leave, fair taxation, housing security, and real public safety for all DC residents. She has consistently demonstrated the courage it takes to stand by your values in the face of pressure from colleagues and lobbyists, and she has been out in the community listening to her constituents throughout her first term on the Council — not only when it’s election season, but all the time.
