John,
Susan Collins has long been in the pocket of big-money backers like the Federalist Society and Leonard Leo — the very people who brought us Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.
Now Collins' dark money supporters are doubling down, saying that should RBG retire, they expect Collins to support ANOTHER anti-choice justice — no questions asked.
Oh, hell no.
We're going all out to defeat Susan Collins for reelection to put the Senate back in pro-choice hands and prevent Trump from naming another Federalist Society-backed justice who would all but ensure that Roe v. Wade is gutted. Will you donate $15?
Yes, I'll donate $15 to defend abortion rights and defeat Susan Collins.
Leonard Leo is one of the most powerful anti-choice lobbyists in the country. He personally recommended Kavanaugh and Gorsuch to Trump, and he recently held a fundraiser for Collins at his $4 million mansion.1
When Leo was asked last week about replacing Justice Ginsburg with an opponent of Roe v. Wade before the 2020 election, he made it clear that he expects Susan Collins to vote 'yes' on whomever Leo tells Trump to nominate.
"Susan Collins will have to just be comfortable with the state of play,” he said.2
RBG is the single greatest champion for women's rights that the Supreme Court has ever seen. For her to be replaced by another Kavanaugh- or Gorsuch-style anti-choice justice would be a travesty that will reverse progress for generations.
Susan Collins has lost 44 points off her approval rating since casting the deciding vote for Brett Kavanaugh last year.3
Now it's time to finish the job and end her career in the Senate — for good.
Will you donate $15 to defend abortion rights and defeat Susan Collins?
Thank you for all you do for reproductive freedom,
 Ilyse Hogue President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
