Today's the first day of our Senate Flash Fund — a two-day push to help power the campaigns of Democratic pro-choice women committed to saving our razor-thin Senate majority in 2024.
Donate on Launch Day to invest early in make-or-break Senate races:
I'll be blunt, John: Our Senate majority is razor-thin.
While we successfully grew the Senate majority beyond a 50-50 tie last November, just two seats stand between us and a Republican-controlled Congress. And there is no question what a Republican Senate would prioritize — we're already seeing the GOP's extreme anti-choice, anti-democracy agenda playing out in the House.
That's why I am reaching out on the Launch Day of our two-day Senate Flash Fund. We've set an ambitious goal of $75,000 to invest in Democratic pro-choice women who will fight hard to keep the Senate majority. We're thinking of this as a down payment on the success of the women we'll support this cycle, and we know that they'll pay dividends in their fierce pro-choice leadership!
Are you in, John? Donate now, on the *first day* of our Senate Flash Fund, to help send the message loud and clear: The race for the Senate majority is a marathon, not a sprint, and we're not ceding a single inch to anti-choice Republicans.
House Republicans have been hard at work attacking abortion access since Kevin McCarthy picked up the speaker's gavel, and have already passed multiple anti-choice bills this year. Without the federal protections of Roe v. Wade in place, House Republicans will pass a national abortion ban — and the only thing stopping these bans from heading to the President's desk is our tiny Democratic Senate majority.
It may seem early to be ringing the warning bells, but I know that you've seen the numbers, John: Democrats will have to defend 22 Senate seats — twice the number that Republicans need to hold — just to maintain our two-seat advantage.
Anti-choice Republicans are launching (and bankrolling) campaigns with the hopes of flipping as many seats as possible — so this is our moment to fight back.
We know what we're up against, so it's time we roll up our sleeves and get to work. Join the fight to save the Senate by donating toward our $75,000 goal now:
