Hi John,
Just shortly after midnight, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision ruled to allow the Texas abortion vigilante law to stay in effect.
This is the most restrictive abortion ban in the country.
Right now, we are working furiously to recruit strong pro-choice candidates to run for the Texas state legislature in 2022 to end this. Black and brown women were able to flip Georgia in just a decade -- we can gain ground
everywhere if we invest.
Can you chip in $5 or more to help recruit and elect diverse young progressives who will fight for reproductive justice?

You've heard Amanda and I say it over and over again:
State legislatures matter, and this is why.
They are ground zero for everything from abortion rights to the freedom to vote to housing to LGBTQIA+ rights and on and on and on and on…
Democratic donors and top strategists have neglected state and local infrastructure for years, and now we're reaping the "rewards." But let's be clear -- it's Black and brown folks, LGBTQIA+ folks, poor folks, folks with disabilities, and all those with marginalized identities who will be hurt the most.
Run for Something was created to answer the surge of enthusiastic young progressives who wanted to run for office in the wake of the 2016 election but had few resources to set them up to win. Why? State parties were neglected for years and organizing efforts in "red" states was abandoned (which as Stacey Abrams says are just suppRessED states).
At Run for Something, we are exclusively dedicated to electing diverse young progressives to state and local office because we know it's how you build the kind of power we are seeing Republicans and conservatives wield right now.
We can't change the past, but we can decide the future -- right here, right now. Chip in $5 or more if you are in this fight.
Man for choice,
Ross Morales Rocketto
