Hi Big,

Justice Christine Donohue has authored decisions that directly impact your life — from preserving access to abortion to protecting equality under the law. Her rulings have ensured that your rights are upheld, regardless of your circumstances. She hasn’t been a judge for politics; she’s been a judge for justice.

• In February 2024, she authored a 3–2 majority opinion overturning a decades-old precedent to apply Pennsylvania’s Equal Rights Amendment to laws that burden people based on pregnancy. Her work made clear that laws treating pregnancy differently are sex discrimination. That means laws denying abortion access or restricting reproductive health access must face stricter review.
• She joined with Justices Wecht and Dougherty in reviving a lawsuit that challenges a state law limiting Medicaid funding for some abortion services. This ruling put into motion real legal underpinnings for reproductive autonomy for low-income women.
• She was also part of the Supreme Court majority in the 2018 decision declaring Pennsylvania’s Congressional district map an unconstitutional gerrymander. The result was more fair representation in Congress.

This is exactly the kind of justice we need to retain, especially in the face of the upcoming elections. It's no coincidence that MAGA billionaires are targeting her seat. They know the impact she's had and they're trying to reverse it.

Your support is crucial in this fight. We can’t afford to sit this one out. We need your resources to counter their ads and defend justices like Donohue. Can you chip in today to help keep her on the court?

Thank you,
Pennsylvania Democratic Party
