REWRITING THE CONSTITUTION

Lucas,

Imagine what Republicans would do if given the chance to rewrite the Constitution.

It's unpleasant, but unfortunately, it's a real possibility.

Republicans control nearly enough state legislatures to call a constitutional convention, without a single Democratic vote — they need 34, and they currently have 32.

To stop this possibility from becoming a reality, we have to invest heavily in state legislative races next year and start turning key chambers blue.

Donate $3 to help elect more pro-choice Democratic women to state legislatures to stop Republican plans to call a constitutional convention.

Republicans are already practicing rolling back hundreds of years of progress with mock conventions — most recently in Virginia and Arizona.

But here's the good news:

Our women made huge gains in 2017. In Virginia, they won 13 seats in the House of Delegates, 11 of which flipped from red to blue. And in Georgia, our women broke up the Republican supermajority in the state Senate.

If we can build on those gains and replicate our winning strategy in state legislative races next year, we can stop this serious threat to our democracy.

Donate $3 to help our women replace even more Republicans in state legislatures across the country and prevent the GOP from calling a constitutional convention:
