John, we’re living through a critical moment in our country’s history – but today, I’m feeling encouraged. Let me tell you why. 

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and opened the door to increasing attacks on our basic rights, community members like YOU have stepped up to be part of the political transformation we need to uphold our autonomy, dignity, and safety. Here’s a quick snapshot of what I mean:  

Over 300 community members joined our recent mobilization call to learn how to protect abortion access in every state. Three hundred more took the first step to learn about running for office, and applications to Emerge’s for-women-by-women political training programs are up 300% more than what we normally see this time of year – all in a few short weeks. 

That’s powerful, John, because it’s going to take all of us to turn this energy into meaningful and long-lasting change. If you haven’t yet, please check out our resources on how to get involved and join us in the fight.

And if you’re able, please support our efforts to recruit, train, and elect bold Democratic women by making a donation today. Any amount helps Emerge expand our programs and provide all our new applicants with the tools they need to win elections and fight for us in the rooms where decisions are made.

Thank you for being a part of this fight, 

Sandra Bishop
Chief Development Officer, Emerge
