John,

When I had my first guitar lesson at age thirteen, I told my instructor that I wanted to learn how to play rock ‘n’ roll. He paused, looked at me, and said, “Girls don’t play rock ’n’ roll.”

I’ve never been a big fan of being told what I can and can’t do. So, suffice it to say, I didn’t go back for another lesson. Instead, I bought a book, taught myself how to play, and the rest is history.

Abortion bans have always been about controlling women and our bodies. And if this weren’t an email, I’d unleash my full, uncensored fury at the Republicans across the country trying to take away our rights.

But it is an email, so I’ll get straight to the point instead: With the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, reproductive freedom is on the ballot like never before this November. 

Minnesota is a safe haven for millions who can’t access a safe and legal abortion in their Republican-controlled states. And as long as my friends Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flanagan are in office, it will stay that way. That’s why, when I heard a recent poll showed them in a statistical tie with their anti-choice extremist opponents, I offered to do what I could to help.

So, I’m asking you personally, John: Will you join me in making a donation that works for you today to re-elect Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flanagan? I just got word they still need to raise more than $22,000 to reach their end-of-quarter goal by tomorrow night, so anything helps right now.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Scott Jensen and Matt Birk, Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flanagan’s Republican opponents, have both pledged to ban abortion outright with no exceptions for rape or incest. 

They’re downright medieval. But if we don’t give the next four months everything we’ve got, they’ll be attacking our rights from the highest office in the state.

John, Minnesota is a crucial battleground for reproductive freedom. If you can, please join me and chip in to re-elect Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flanagan by 11:59 pm tomorrow. We can’t afford to lose any more ground in this fight.

Thank you,

Joan Jett⭐️
