Dear Lucas,
On The West Wing, negotiating with the opposition made for exciting television.
In reality, the consequences are much more dire.
Again and again, women's rights are being used as a bargaining chip -- which only strengthens my resolve to ensure we have more women at the table, women who understand what's at stake for our families and our lives.
EMILY's List works to elect the pro-choice Democratic women who fight for women's rights. We have only a few short months before the crucial midterm elections, and we must work quickly. That is why I'm asking you to become a member of EMILY's List for a special rate of only $10 -- if you join today!
Click here to become an EMILY's List member today.
C.J. Cregg, my character on The West Wing, worked at EMILY's List before joining the White House. C.J. said it best: EMILY's List is the yeast that makes the dough rise for Democratic women candidates. As an EMILY's List supporter, you already know what a difference EMILY's List can make for women candidates. That support will be more important than ever in the increasingly challenging midterm elections, when Democratic majorities are on the line.
Your contribution to EMILY's List will be put to work immediately to:
-
Help women running in key districts build strong campaigns that can withstand Republican attacks, which are already underway in many districts;
-
Make sure incumbent women targeted for defeat by the GOP have the strategic advice and financial support they need to hold their seats; and
-
Get women voters to the polls in November -- because when women vote, women win.
It's clear we need to move our country forward - and to do that, we need to elect more women to Congress who will fight for the progressive values we share.
Please join EMILY's List today, so we can continue to elect the women who will make a difference for us and our families.
Thank you for working to elect the women that know our country's future and our rights are far too important to be used for political gain.
Sincerely,
Allison Janney
