----- Below are some materials from our 2025 endorsement cycle -----
In 2018, our Jewish votes and voices helped elect a new generation of reformers and radicals; Jews and non-Jews like Julia Salazar, Alessandra Biaggi, Zellnor Myrie, and Jumaane Williams. In 2020, we helped defeat Trump and sent Rep. Jamaal Bowman to Congress. In 2021, we elected another cohort of visionary leaders, including: NYC Comptroller Brad Lander; and NYC Council superstars like Tiffany Cabán, Sandy Nurse, Shahana Hanif, and Alexa Avilés. 2024 saw some victories and some defeats, with JFREJers organizing for Prop 1 and #Nix2through6, as part of the Leave It Blank campaign, and fighting to Reject AIPAC. In 2025, JFREJ members co-led the Jews For Zohran effort with JVP. JFREJ ran an ambitious field program specifically engaging Jewish voters in the mayoral election, with members members knocking 10,000 doors and making 80,000 calls to help elect Mayor Zohran Mamdani
