Dear John,
My heart is heavy because I know that the lives of women and girls are at stake. If the Virginia Senate flips to Republican control and the House remains in Republican control, Governor Youngkin will implement a complete abortion ban. We must stop a trifecta.
If the Blue Brick Wall does not hold in the Senate, women and girls will be criminalized for seeking abortion care and obstetricians will leave the state rather than have their best medical judgement over-ruled by politicians. This is not an acceptable outcome.
The graphic below shows what we are up against. Youngkin’s nationally focused fundraising efforts are overpowering the resources available to our Democratic candidates in targeted races. |
The Senate Democratic Caucus created an advertisement that shows how our candidates respect women and will fight to keep abortion access legal. I know you understand how important it is to get this message out.
Can I count on you to help inform voters that the Republican Senate candidates will trample on a woman’s right to make her own reproductive healthcare decision? Any donation you make will support communication strategies in our targeted races.
I know many of you have already donated to the cause and I am truly grateful for your support. Although it is difficult to keep asking for money, I believe you feel as I do that the stakes are just too high to not do everything we can while it matters.
It is a privilege to represent you in Richmond and I look forward to connecting with you on the campaign trail. |
