We need Democratic pro-choice women in local office now more than ever
John,
Over the last few months, we've rolled out an inspiring slate of Democratic pro-choice endorsements for state and local elections this cycle. The most exciting part of this work? Getting to share the stories of these inspiring leaders with this community of pro-choice activists and voters like you! Today we're writing to tell you about mayoral candidates and pro-choice champions Sheila Jackson Lee (Houston, TX) and Mayor Regina Romero (Tucson, AZ).
John, in case you don't know Sheila and Regina yet, here are just a few reasons EMILYs List is proud to support them:
- Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee is facing a tough road ahead as she enters the Houston, TX mayoral race. With a congressional career focused on championing families, abortion access, and civil rights, Sheila is ready to bring her decades of experience to her Houston community — and we can help her do it!
- In swing state Arizona, Mayor of Tucson Regina Romero has been a proud defender of abortion access and civil rights since her 2019 election. While in office, improving economic opportunities and fighting racial disparities in Tucson have been central to her work — and her Aug. 1 primary is just around the corner!
We can't overstress the importance of local elections like these, which is why we wanted to ask directly: Will you step up to support Democratic pro-choice women like Sheila and Regina running in key local races? Donate now:
