John xxxxxx – we need to bring this to your attention.
A group chat between leaders of Young Republican groups was recently leaked – 2,900 pages of texts show the use of despicable language – like “f----t,” “retarded” and “n--ga” which appeared more than 251 times combined. (Source: Politico [link removed])
In these messages, they make fun of women, use sexual assault as a punchline, and make jokes about slavery and some of the darkest moments in human history.
We are bringing this to your attention because these young, ambitious Republican leaders are likely future lawmakers who might one day be the ones writing policy pertaining to sexual assault, civil rights, and the safety of American constituents.
You might not know it, but Her Bold Move has been working since early 2021 to counter the disturbing trends we’ve noticed among young, mostly male, politicos through our national fellowship program for college-aged women.
Fellows tell us our program has changed the trajectory of their careers and even their lives. You can help fund this important resource for young, politically-minded women who aspire to make the world a better place by pitching in $20.25 today.

We know these text messages accurately reflect how so many politicians feel about women and other minorities. We know this from the way they legislate and the way we’ve watched them prioritize opportunities to control women’s bodies through policy. While we may be reading messages from a subset of conservative future lawmakers, we know this is a reflection of widespread values.
It doesn't have to be like this. We can foster a different kind of leadership for the next generation — and that's exactly what we're doing through our fellowship program. Help us expand opportunities for the next generation of pro-choice, pro-WOMEN women in politics by pitching in $20.25 today. [link removed]
For ALL women,

Her Bold Move is the fastest-growing support network for women running for political office in America. As dangerous laws about women get passed in states with the lowest numbers of women in government (11%, 12%....), we're BREAKING the male supermajorities across those states.
Because men shouldn't be making laws about women's bodies.
