This would be a nightmare scenario, John: Republicans are trying to rewrite the U.S. Constitution to ban abortion across the country. And their plan starts on the ballot in Virginia in less than two weeks.
The GOP only needs to win six more state legislatures to call a Constitutional Convention and make this happen. And because BOTH CHAMBERS of the Virginia General Assembly are up for grabs on November 7, Republicans have the opportunity to drop that number to five.
That’s why EMILYs List is laser-focused on electing Democratic pro-choice women at the state level — but we need your help. Can you donate before our Tuesday night deadline to help women win in Virginia and beyond?
If you have saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your contribution will go through immediately.
If Republicans succeed, the consequences for women, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and so many others could be catastrophic. And that's exactly why we have to step up this cycle, John — not just for the big-ticket races, but also for our fearless candidates in places like Virginia, who can stop this anti-choice power grab at the state and local level.
We've already made incredible progress on this front: last year, we flipped four state chambers from red to blue and secured two new Democratic trifectas, controlling the state House, Senate, and governorship in Michigan and Minnesota. We can repeat this success in 2024 if we do what we did last cycle: invest in key races now.
We can't let the GOP get their hands on our Constitution. Donate toward our End-of-Month goal now to help Democratic pro-choice women STOP this GOP scheme to ban abortion:
