Hey John xxxxxx,

The choices around a person's reproductive rights should be left up to the individual, and access to healthcare shouldn't be limited by income or what state you live in.

Right now, just being a "Pro-Choice" Democrat isn't enough. We need pro-choice champions who will fight for our equality and accept nothing less.

I’ve organized marches, rallies, teach-ins and protests in my community for protecting reproductive rights. I know first hand how hard this battle is. Even in “blue” states like New York, we need to show up and fight for reproductive justice.

I know what it feels like to be vulnerable. I know what it feels like when it seems like you’ve been left behind.

We deserve representation that represents us — relentlessly and unapologetically. That’s why I’m running for Congress.

I am running because the people of New York’s third congressional district deserve a fighter who will stand up and fight for them and their families and never compromise away their rights out of political convenience.

If you can afford it, please chip in $5 or more today to fund our campaign to give NY-03 a Congresswoman who will fight for the people.

Moments in history like these call upon all of us to step into our collective power. That’s why I am proud to be endorsed by pro-choice organizations like Her Bold Move, the National Organization for Women, #VotePro-Choice, and the Progressive Women of New York.

These organizations and community leaders do the hard work on the ground each and every day.

If you want to join us in keeping New York a safe haven for abortion, then please make a $3 contribution to my campaign today. When in Congress, I will fight relentlessly to codify Roe v. Wade, end the Hyde Amendment, and unrig the Supreme Court to ensure our rights are never again under attack.

Thanks for having my back while we’re in this fight together.

Melanie
