First of all, a big thank you to those of you who gave towards our Feb deadline. This team really showed up to send a message to our two GOP opponents that this district can’t be bought by MAGA money, and now we’re that much closer to being ready for the primary next month.

Now that it’s March, I also wanted to take a moment to recognize Women’s History Month and the hard work that we still have in front of us as we work toward equity and equality for women.

I’ve spent my time in Congress working to empower women – I’ve fought to reauthorize the Violence Against Women’s Act , I’ve fought for reproductive choice and freedom, I’ve fought for equal opportunity and pay. But that work is far from over, and I promise that as long as I’m in Congress I will never let up.

With the repeal of Roe v. Wade , we’re at a dangerous crossroads where women’s rights are being treated as a privilege rather than a guarantee. And while some threats to our rights are obvious, many signs of inequality are taken for granted. Think about: *
The
gender
pay
gap
–
women
on
average
make
$.82
to
every
dollar
a
man
makes
in
the
same
role,
and
it
gets
worse
for
Black
and
Hispanic
women
*
*
Representation
in
leadership
-
only
29%
of
representatives
in
the
U.S.
House
and
only
8.2%
of
CEOs
at
large
companies
are
women
*
*
The
“Pink
Tax”
-
where
products
marketed
to
women
are
up-charged
vs.
comparable
products
for
men

All that, not to mention the serious disparities in our healthcare system, bodily autonomy, and right to privacy that are making front page news every day since the GOP came for Roe . I’m fighting to create a safer and more equal future for our daughters and granddaughters, but it’s clear we need more women in office to see this work through.

That’s why it’s critical we elect strong women willing to fight for progress — not those who wish to turn back the clock on women’s rights. If you agree, donate now. [[link removed]]
