Engel’s links to left-wing groups could undercut her run for the open seat in Arizona’s sixth district, which Democrats consider a "must-win" in order to maintain control of the House. Engel’s campaign conducted an internal poll which had her leading Republican Juan Ciscomani 49-47, though election analysts have given Republicans a slight advantage in the district.
It is not the first time Engel has worked with groups behind controversial causes. She solicited donations in 2020 for the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a left-wing organization that has bailed murderers out of jail, the Washington Free Beacon reported. She signed a pledge during the primary to support legislation for reparations promoted by a group that supports the movement to defund police. She met with activists for a voter registration event from Living United for Change in Arizona, a pro-immigration group that came under fire for harassing Sen. Kyrsten Sinema in a bathroom last year.
Engel’s campaign and the campaign for Sen. Mark Kelly (D., Ariz.) sponsored a gala for the Pima County Democratic Party earlier this month. Engel contributed $3,000 to the event, while Kelly gave $500. Engel’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
