"I am furious at the idea that Republicans are going to take us backward – that this will be the first generation of women with fewer rights than their mothers.”
– Senator Patty Murray
Listen,
In a 49-51 vote, the Senate failed to codify Roe v. Wade into federal law by not passing the Women's Health Protection Act.
In a matter of days or weeks, we could be living in a country where millions of people no longer have access to safe and legal abortion.
The need for Democratic, pro-choice candidates to defend our House majority could not be more clear. If the Supreme Court goes through with its plan to eliminate the constitutional right to abortion, a nationwide abortion ban may follow.
Let's be clear: Overturning Roe won't mean the end of abortion – it will only mean the end of safe and life-saving reproductive care.
A champion for reproductive rights, Senator Patty Murray has helped secure $4.5 million in Title X funding for Washington and has been a fierce leader for reproductive justice ever since she was elected as the first woman senator to represent Washington.
Both Patty and Derek are ready to continue fighting for reproductive freedom, but they rely on support from grassroots teams like ours. Patty and Derek are coming up on an important mid-month deadline. Will you chip in $10, $5, or whatever you can so that they can continue to champion reproductive rights in Congress? >> [link removed]
Team, in her own words, Patty remembers a time before Roe. She knows what it was like to live in a country where women didn't have somewhere safe to turn for an abortion and the consequences that inevitably ensued when women didn't have autonomy over their own bodies and health.
Patty and Derek know that the fight is far from over. And no matter what decision the Supreme Court comes to, they will never back down from championing the right to choose.
Will you split a donation between their two campaigns to help them defend the Senate and House majorities this November? >> [link removed]
Thanks for all that you do,
