When Joe Biden brought up Amy Coney Barrett’s inevitable attack on abortion rights on Tuesday night, Donald Trump claimed: “You don’t know her view on Roe v. Wade.”
Except we do know. There’s a reason why so many pro-life Republicans and anti-abortion groups have supported Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court. Barrett’s track record strongly suggests that she’ll strike down Roe v. Wade the first chance she gets -- which could be quite soon, contrary to Trump’s debate-stage lies that “it’s not on the ballot” and “there’s nothing happening there.”
Trump and the other pro-life GOPers don’t have the majority of Americans on their side. A new NBC News poll shows that sixty-six percent of adults don’t support Roe v. Wade being overturned by the Supreme Court. And we know this issue matters to Democrats since the data also shows that 86% of adult Dems oppose the idea. We have the ability to win if Democrats show up and vote like their bodily autonomy and lives depend on it -- which they should, because they do.
But the GOP knows their foundation is cracking, so they’re working day and night to push Barrett through before the election to keep Trump in power. When Democrats Turn Out is determined to mobilize voters nationwide so that their efforts fail miserably. But to do that, we need more money. If we don’t reach our fundraising goal of $2,349 by midnight tonight, we’re not going to be able to launch the next phase of our voter engagement campaign.
Thank you for stepping up at this critical moment for our country.
We can’t win without you.
