John, Monday was the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade. And just yesterday, I attended President Biden’s rally in Virginia, where he showed his commitment to fighting against abortion bans and fighting for the health and rights of women and girls.
I know abortion will be a top issue in the 2024 elections.
The Feminist Majority is committed to mobilizing young voters in key swing states to support abortion rights. Your early donation will make a real impact.
Together, let’s commit to moving forward in 2024.
For equality,
Ellie

John,
Early planning, organizing, and investing will make the difference in the critical 2024 elections. Abortion, the Equal Rights Amendment, and women’s lives are on the ballot.
Feminist Majority's supporter's enduring commitment has been pivotal in bolstering the strength, stamina, and persistence of the feminist movement.
It is why I’m emailing so early in 2024. We face daunting challenges and unprecedented opportunities. If we have the early resources to invest, we will win.
We’ve already mapped out the 2024 Action Agenda. I need your support to help us raise the seed money needed to begin executing early this year.
The 2024 Action Agenda has three goals:
- Organize and mobilize massive young voter campaigns in key swing states in 2024 to assure victory in this all important once-in-our-lifetime election for the presidency and the majorities in House and Senate in Congress.
- Help pass state constitutional referenda in several states to protect abortion access and reproductive rights. Abortion rights are already on the ballot in two states and will potentially be on as many as 10 ballots this year.
- To, at last, place the Equal Rights Amendment - already ratified by the required 3/4ths of the states - in the U.S. Constitution as the 28th Amendment.
Please help us move quickly in 2024.
We must win this election, the need is urgent. You’ve heard the horrendous stories … pregnant women practically bleeding out in hospital parking lots because they aren’t ‘sick enough’ to receive treatment for a pregnancy in crisis … desperate young girls who were raped being forced to flee their home state in search of abortion care … OB/GYNs abandoning their states because politicians won’t allow them to serve their patients.
The agenda is achievable. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has lit a fire under women voters – especially young women voters. Abortion restrictions and outright bans have energized pro-reproductive freedom voters to turn out to vote. We not only carried the Ohio referendum in 2023, we also won in Virigina and Kentucky because of the reproductive rights issue.
Let me just say, John, WE CAN DO THIS. I know, because we’ve done it before.
Remember, a simple Congressional Resolution passed by the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House paves the way for enshrining the Equal Rights Amendment in the Constitution.
I could go on – but I know you understand. Your financial investment now will ensure the 2024 Action Agenda is realized and we win again in November.
For equality,
