There are a record number of women running for office this November -- and the election is just over four months away.
Right now, 50.52% of the United States is made up of women, yet they only make up 23.7% of Congress. The systemic barriers and prejudices faced by women running for office often get in the way of their victories, or their decision to run at all.
Mary Gay and our team are passionate about fixing this problem. The solution is simple: invest in women and their campaigns.
That’s why I’m reaching out now. If we’re going to elect more women in 2020, we’ve got to help them reach their fundraising goals so they have the resources they need to communicate their message.
Right now, we’re up against our first official FEC filing deadline since Mary Gay launched A Woman’s Place. We’re $6,500 short of our goal -- with your support now, I know we can close the gap to elect more women who are running to serve their communities.
On behalf of Mary Gay and our team, I’m personally asking you to give again to support our mission to change the face of politics. Please make your first contribution of $25, $10, $5, or whatever you can now.
Thanks so much for being part of our team.
Best,
Ben TerMaat
