Friend – before I was the first Latina to serve in the U.S. Senate and before I was Nevada's attorney general, I was fresh out of law school (that's me above on the day I graduated).

If you had told me back then – a young idealistic lawyer – that women’s constitutional rights would be stripped away by an ultraconservative Supreme Court majority – that five justices would overturn a longstanding precedent that the majority of Americans support – I wouldn’t have believed you.

For the first time in our nation's history, a constitutional right has been taken away. Think about that.

If they can do this, nothing is safe. Marriage equality, contraception, – you name it – this court is ready to overturn it. That’s why our most sacred rights are on the line in this election. If Republicans retake the Senate, Mitch McConnell will pass a nationwide abortion ban, and then he’ll come after even more of our freedoms! So today, with our rights on the line, I'm asking you to chip in whatever you can spare to help me keep Nevada and our Senate blue.

When the Roe v. Wade ruling first began to guarantee reproductive freedoms, I was only eight years old. I came of age in a time when a woman's right to choose was the law of the land. It's unfathomable to me that young girls all over America could grow up in a country where their bodily autonomy is dictated by politicians – where they no longer have the right to choose.

Friend, as Nevada's attorney general, I spent nearly a decade working to protect Nevadans and vulnerable women and girls. Now, as a U.S. senator, I’ll keep fighting with everything I have to protect a woman’s right to choose.

But the truth is, I cannot win this fight on my own – and the first hurdle is defending Nevada's seat and our Democratic Senate majority from my Trump-endorsed opponent. Right now, he's leading in the polls, and if we're not careful, he could be the 51st vote for a nationwide abortion ban.

So please, can I count on you, friend? Will you rush $5 or more to help me defend our Democratic Senate majority? Our rights and the future of our democracy depend on it.

¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues!
