[1]Cheri Beasley for North Carolina
When I was President of Planned Parenthood, I saw firsthand how far extreme right-wing politicians were willing to go to roll back our rights. I warned for years about their plan not just to overturn Roe, but if given the chance, to pass a national abortion ban.
Sadly, that is the reality we’re facing right now with Senate candidates like Ted Budd in North Carolina, who has said he supports a total ban on abortion without exceptions — not even for rape, incest or the health of the mother.
Republican insiders like Ted Budd want folks like you and me to sit down, shut up and do nothing as Washington Republicans roll back our constitutional rights. They want us to believe that we cannot fight back – or march forward – because they know that they are no match for the power of the people if we act together.
It’s our job to prove them wrong — to show them that we’re not giving up or throwing in the towel. And the best way for us to do that right now is to show up to support Cheri Beasley.
Can you please make a donation to help Cheri Beasley defeat her radical opponent Ted Budd and flip North Carolina? This is one of the most competitive races anywhere in the country — perhaps our best chance to expand the majority.

Look, this race isn’t just about stopping someone who wants to completely ban abortion. It’s also a real opportunity to send an inspiring champion for the people to the United States Senate – someone who will do what’s right no matter the politics and put people first.
I’ve had a front-row seat observing the rise of strong, trailblazing women in American politics, and Cheri Beasley is absolutely one of them.
Cheri’s voice is desperately needed in the U.S. Senate. As a former judge and the first Black woman to serve as North Carolina’s Chief Justice, she brings an important perspective to the table and understands firsthand that abortion is a constitutional right.
Cheri will not surrender or back down from a tough fight. While Republican legislatures try to ban abortion, she’ll fight to codify abortion rights nationwide.
I’m personally asking you to contribute any amount you can today to help Cheri flip North Carolina. If we win here, we have a real path to ending the filibuster and passing legislation to protect the right to abortion in every single state.

I yelled from the rooftops about the danger of Republican abortion bans when I was President of Planned Parenthood – but pundits and Republican politicians called people like me "hysterical" and told us to be quiet.
We didn’t back down then, and we sure as hell won’t back down now. Thank you for stepping up today to be part of this fight.
