Friend,

CNN just named my friend Catherine Cortez Masto (D) the most vulnerable senator up for reelection as polling shows her down 1 point to her Trump-endorsed extremist opponent.

We cannot hold the Senate if Catherine loses, so I'm reaching out directly to explain what your support today would mean for this battleground Senate race and our Democratic majority.

When SCOTUS overturned Roe, I was heartbroken and furious but not surprised. As president of Planned Parenthood, I watched year after year as Republicans methodically gained power and passed legislation to control women's bodies. It culminated in a deranged president who tipped the balance of the Supreme Court to finally overturn Roe.

But this fight is FAR from over, and Catherine is leading the way on women’s reproductive rights. She’s already pushing legislation that would guarantee women can safely travel to seek an abortion and not be prosecuted for it. Meanwhile, her opponent said that Roe was a “joke” and celebrated the Supreme Court’s decision as a “historic victory.” 

The only person standing in the way of Mitch McConnell and a national abortion ban is Catherine Cortez Masto. But right now, McConnell and his super PAC are spending $18 MILLION to defeat her, so the only way she’ll be able to overcome these attacks is if pro-choice Democrats like you and me step up right now, folks!

So please, with the future of reproductive freedom at stake, will you split a donation of $5 or more between Sen. Cortez Masto and Ben Ray Luján to save our Senate majority and women's rights?

I learned a crucial lesson about anti-choice extremists during my time at Planned Parenthood – and it's something I want you to take to heart, folks:

They want Democrats like you and me to sit down, shut up and give up – because they’re TERRIFIED of our power if we act together. It's critical that we show them our power. We will not back down. Not today. Not ever.

So please, join me in taking action by supporting Catherine's must-win Senate race in Nevada. Split a donation between Catherine and Ben Ray Luján so we can save our majority and women's rights. >>

Thank you, 

Cecile Richards
