John — today is the day the Supreme Court will start hearing arguments in the case to ban the most commonly used abortion pill, mifepristone, nationwide.
This radical out-of-touch lawsuit was first ruled on by a campaign donor Josh Hawley made a federal judge (and picked to oversee the case through “judge shopping”). It’s being led by Josh Hawley’s wife. And it’s even been directly supported by Josh Hawley’s taxpayer-funded role as U.S. Senator.
They’ve been working toward this moment since 2019, when Josh Hawley was sworn into the Senate and confirmed his donor, Matthew Kacsmaryk, to be a federal judge in the Northern District of Texas — even despite bipartisan opposition over his bizarre obsession with controlling other people’s bodies.
Alliance Defending Freedom, the organization where Josh Hawley’s wife works as lead counsel, knows that Kacsmaryk shares their extreme views on abortion and reproductive rights. So when they had a lawsuit, led by Josh Hawley’s wife, that aimed to restrict access to the abortion pill in all 50 states, they picked Matthew Kacsmaryk in the Northern District of Texas to be their judge.
It shouldn’t surprise anyone that Josh Hawley’s donor judge ruled in favor of the suit led by Josh Hawley’s wife — going against guidance from the FDA and reproductive health experts across the country.
Hawley later used his Senate office to file an amicus brief defending the ruling.
This whole situation was so blatantly corrupt, that federal courts recently started efforts to prevent “judge shopping” on their own, as this case was one of the worst and clearest examples of this corruption to date.
This is what we’re up against in Missouri this year, John.
Control-obsessed elites like Josh Hawley are willing to do whatever it takes to strip away the essential freedom for everyday people to decide if and how they can build and raise their families.
Their first step was overturning Roe v. Wade. Now they’re attacking reproductive rights across the spectrum — from enacting Missouri’s exceptionless abortion ban, to outlawing the abortion pill across the country, and now restricting access to IVF.
This election is our one and only opportunity to hold Josh Hawley accountable, and we can’t afford to waste it. So John, will you help us get this message in front of Missouri voters by rushing a donation of $10 or whatever you can afford to my grassroots campaign today?

I’m running to replace Josh Hawley in the U.S. Senate because it’s time to put Missourians in charge of their own bodies, families, and lives. That’s why I’m fighting to codify Roe v. Wade, restore abortion access in Missouri, and protect reproductive rights across the country.
I hope I can count on your support this year, John.
Thanks for everything,
Lucas Kunce
