John,
It's Tina Smith, proud U.S. senator from the great state of Minnesota. I've been doing a lot of reflecting lately, on my career and the values that have guided it. And I simply can't think about my time in the U.S. Senate without thinking of you — my friends and supporters in the EMILYs List community.
Before running for office, I was a vice president at Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, where I heard stories confirming just how important it is for women to have control over if, when, and how we grow our families. When I went on to serve as Minnesota's lieutenant governor and then its senator, I carried those stories with me.
That's why it meant so much to me when EMILYs List, the only team in politics focused entirely on electing Democratic pro-choice women, endorsed me. This team has been by my side every step of the way, and I'm here to say thank you — and to ask that you support my friends at EMILYs List with a donation to power their work for years to come. Can you make a donation today?
It is a challenging time to be a Democrat, John — I won't sugarcoat it. We're facing the very real threat of authoritarianism from a corrupt president, his billionaire backers, and a Republican-backed Congress that will do whatever he wants. I'm fighting back every day — and I'm staying strong in the fight because I've got supporters like you in my corner.
Now is the time to take a stand, John. Please contribute what you can to EMILYs List today, and support their work electing more women nationwide who will fight for our most fundamental freedoms.
