John,
Alek Skarlatos is back in the news this week, this time for something that unfortunately requires a trigger warning for sexual violence.

[GRAPHIC: OCC Headline "Oregon congressional candidate Alek Skarlatos joked about choking women"]

The article just gets worse from there.

Along with his wisecracks about a woman who died from sexual violence, Alek shared that he's fantasized about choking women to death in bed.

I'm not laughing, Alek. Normalizing sexual violence is one of the most dangerous things that anyone in our society can do, let alone a man who wants to go to Congress and vote on what rights women do and do not have in our country.

Donate $16 now to keep this dangerous man from ever making policy decisions that affect women. [[link removed]]

It's clear: Alek Skarlatos is a danger to women everywhere. He not only doesn't understand the threats of violence that women like me face, he doesn't care – in fact, he actively chooses to side with the men who perpetrate that violence.

There's the old saying - when someone shows you who they are, believe them.

I know who Val Hoyle is: a true champion for women's rights and reproductive freedom. And now, we know exactly who Alek Skarlatos is, and just how dangerous he truly would be if given the chance.

Please, John, donate to Val's campaign today and let's make sure that Alek Skarlatos and his abhorrent views never get anywhere near Congress. [[link removed]]
