John— Earlier today, Sen. Susan Collins announced she’s running for reelection.
For decades, Collins told voters she supports abortion rights and would defend Roe v. Wade. But when it really mattered, she betrayed the American people by casting the deciding vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Now we have an opportunity to make sure Collins pays for turning her back on women and the voters of Maine.
So, to mark the day Susan Collins officially threw her hat into the ring for 2020, a generous donor is MATCHING every donation in Collins' name dollar-for-dollar. We've set a goal of raising $20,000 in 24 hours. Can we count you in, John?
John—
By this time next year, we will be living in a different world.
But what kind of world is up to us.
If Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and Mike Pence get their way, Roe v. Wade will be gone or gutted. A wave of clinic shutdowns will eliminate abortion access across the country. People who need abortion care will suffer, and some will die. Women and abortion providers will be punished and may go to jail. Because that’s what happens when abortion is criminalized.
But if we work as hard as we can and do our jobs right, Trump will be on his way out of office. Mitch McConnell will lose the power of the gavel as Senate majority leader. And both chambers of Congress will be back in pro-choice hands.
Those are the stakes — and to make sure we have the resources to win, we’ve set a goal of raising $350,000 by midnight on December 31. For a limited time, all gifts will be MATCHED, dollar-for-dollar, thanks to a generous donor.
Will you donate $15 to help meet our year-end goal and ensure that we win in 2020? Remember, your gift today will go twice as far to protect and expand reproductive freedom in the year ahead.
The year ahead is the most important — and dangerous — one for reproductive freedom since Roe v. Wade itself.
The Supreme Court will hear June Medical Services vs. Gee, a case that could overturn precedent to allow states to shut down all the abortion clinics within their borders.
Yes, 2020 is a year with huge risks for reproductive freedom — but there are also HUGE opportunities. That’s why we’re turning to you to help make this the biggest year-end ever.
Your double-matched support will:
- Remove Mitch McConnell as Senate majority leader, taking away his power to appoint judges and stall progress.
- Flip the Senate and expand the pro-choice majority in the House of Representatives.
- Make Donald Trump a one-term president.
We’re preparing to launch our biggest electoral campaign year ever, and we’re counting on you, John. Will you donate $15 to help reach our year-end goal of $350,000?
Thank you for all you do for reproductive freedom,
Ilyse Hogue
President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
