Dear MoveOn member,
On Tuesday, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham introduced a bill to ban
abortions nationwide, much to the delight of anti-abortion extremists
across the country.^1 Mike Pence responded by saying that stripping away
rights from women, girls, trans, and nonbinary people "is profoundly more
important than any short-term politics."^2
When the GOP tells you who they are, believe them.
A nationwide ban on abortion has always been their plan. If they succeed
in taking control of Congress in just 53 days, they will pass that bill
and set themselves up to make it the law of the land in 2024 if they are
able to finish what they started in 2020 and install Donald Trump back
into the White House no matter the actual outcome of the election.

them at the polls this November. To help spread the word, MoveOn has
printed a big batch of these "Vote like it's 1973" stickers, and we're
giving them away for free—while supplies last. Click here or on the image

MoveOn is working harder than ever before to ensure that the abortion
extremists who make up the GOP do not take power in this year's elections,
investing an unprecedented $30 million in our campaign to stop them.
We're investing millions in television and digital ads in critical swing
states like Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
MoveOn members are joining phone and text banks by the thousands to help
reach our goal of contacting 6.6 million "surge" voters, meaning those
people who turned out for the first time in 2018 or 2020 and became the
margin of victory for Democrats. If we can turn them out again, we will
win in November.
And MoveOn's analytics teams have put together an innovative
message-testing program to ensure that our ads are micro-targeted to
exactly the right voters and that the messages are as persuasive as they
can be.
John, there are many ways for you to get involved in the effort
to defeat anti-abortion extremists at the ballot box, but one simple way
is by ordering this free sticker. By placing it somewhere visible, you are
helping to spread the word that this year's midterm elections will
determine whether we protect our rights and our democracy—or if our
country is allowed to slip fully into neo-fascist authoritarianism.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Donald Trump's preparations for being able
to steal the presidency in 2024 are well underway and include working to
replace top election officials in battleground states with his own
loyalists. Which is why MoveOn is doing something we've never done in our
23-year history: We're launching a powerful, multimillion-dollar effort to
defeat Trump-backed secretaries of state across the country and elect
individuals who will count every vote and ensure fair elections.
Will you chip in to power our campaign to defeat Trump and protect our
elections in 2022?
