Hi, team – I’m Governor Tony Evers and I have one clear message to share with you: All Wisconsinites deserve the right to control their own bodies. Full stop.
|
That shouldn’t be a political statement, but these days it is.
|
Before I go on, can you please make a split donation now between my campaign and the Democratic Governors Association to help elect Democratic governors across the country who can safeguard abortion in the states?
|
|
Here’s the thing: I have seven grandchildren who are girls and young women. The Supreme Court’s dangerous decision to overturn Roe stripped them of their fundamental rights as equal citizens.
|
I think that’s bullshit.
|
Since the Supreme Court thinks my grandkids shouldn't have the freedom to decide what happens to their bodies, I'm taking action. In June, Attorney General Josh Kaul and I filed a lawsuit against Wisconsin’s archaic 1849 law that would ban nearly all abortions, even in cases of rape and incest.
|
And I’m not the only Democratic governor fighting back.
|
In Michigan, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer filed a lawsuit and used her executive authority to urge the Michigan Supreme Court to ensure Michigan’s arcane 1931 ban never goes back into effect. And in New Mexico, Nevada, and Illinois, they’ve signed legislation guaranteeing the right to an abortion in their states.
|
We’ve made progress to protect our states from these shameful Republican attacks, but this fight isn’t over.
|
We can win in Wisconsin and battleground states across the country, but only if we take action TODAY.
|
That’s why I need your help, team. Will you split a donation between my campaign and the Democratic Governors Association before midnight tonight so that we can win across the country and the DGA can hit their critical 48-hour deadline?
|
If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

|
I'm so grateful to have your support, especially during moments like this one.
Onward,
Tony Evers
Governor of Wisconsin
