John—
Here’s a terrifying thought: If Donald Trump wins reelection, there’s a chance that he will get to nominate another anti-choice Supreme Court justice.
Can you imagine another Brett Kavanaugh or Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court?
We can — and together, we can stop it from happening. Donate $15 before midnight on Dec. 31 to help us reach our end-of-year goal, and your donation will be matched, dollar-for-dollar.
Trump’s nominees already occupy two seats on the Supreme Court and account for more than one in every four federal appeals judges, and more than one in seven district court judges. Because of Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell, our judiciary has been stacked with anti-choice judges at every level — many of whom will be all too happy to rule against access to abortion and reproductive freedom.1
That’s why we’re launching our most aggressive electoral spending campaign in our 50-year history, investing $34.7 million to reach 3.6 million voters in order to flip the Senate, expand the pro-choice majority in the House of Representatives, and put a halt to the Trump-McConnell judicial disaster.
With your support, we can expand this investment to reach even more voters — and make sure that Donald Trump never gets the chance to nominate another Supreme Court justice. And right now, your donation will be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar.
Despite our historic investment, we’re still going to be outspent by the anti-choice extremists who poured millions of dollars into the right-wing campaign that led to Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation.
One of the most notorious anti-choice lobbying groups in the country, the Susan B. Anthony (SBA) List, has already pledged to spend $41 million to reelect Donald Trump — their “pro-life” hero whose other accomplishments include locking babies in cages, tearing more than 5,400 children away from their parents at the southern border, and reducing the United States’ commitments to aslyum-seekers to historic lows.2,3,4,5
In the face of the current anti-choice majority on the Supreme Court, we need a president who’s committed to nominating judges who will uphold Roe, and a legislative branch that will pass federal protections for abortion. That’s why we’re digging deep to make 2020 a banner year for pro-choice candidates.
We need your help to make it happen, though — so we’re asking:
Can you make a year-end donation of $15 before Dec. 31 at midnight? All donations will be DOUBLE-MATCHED.
Proud to have you in this fight with us,
Ilyse Hogue
President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
