Hi there, John! It’s Mandy and Kathryn, and we’re here to give you a reason to be hopeful as we head into the final week of New Hampshire’s critical battleground race for U.S. Senate.

It’s you!

Just by reading this email – and of course by giving $3, or whatever you can – you are helping to support Maggie Hassan’s campaign.

It is truly inspiring to see droves of our fellow citizens speaking out, getting involved, and giving to candidates that they believe in. And beyond just being inspirational to folks like us, who have been engaging in this work for a long time, it has a genuine impact on our country.

And your voice (and your gift) has never been more important, because Maggie is facing a tough race against a radical right-wing opponent.

When Maggie’s opponent, Don Bolduc, was asked about the threat of a nationwide abortion ban, do you know what his response was? Telling women to “get over it.”

Well, you know what, John, we won’t “get over it.” We refuse to let Don Bolduc sweep his dangerous, radical, anti-choice agenda under the rug, but we also refuse to give in to despair.

Yes, the prospect of Don Bolduc as a U.S. Senator is terrifying, but the truth is we are more hopeful than ever. That’s thanks, in no small part, to the outpouring of support from people like you, for champions like Maggie Hassan.

We’ve followed Maggie and have always admired her ferocious work on the behalf of women and all Americans. And now she needs people like us, John, to help her defeat Don Bolduc and continue that important work.

Giving a gift of even just $3 or $10 has a real impact in a race as close as Maggie’s, so if you have been looking for a way to get involved, this is it.

You don’t have to “get over it” – in fact, you shouldn’t, but you don’t have to give in either. You can act!

So please, join us in turning rage into hope.

Your voice matters,

– Mandy Patinkin & Kathryn Grody
