Lucas,  |
It's waging war on women's healthcare.
My GOP colleagues back an amendment that would let any employer deny women basic contraception coverage for any reason. Then House Republicans opened a hearing on birth control and didn't include even one woman on the panel!
We can only stop them because we hold the Senate. If just four Democratic seats are occupied by Republicans come November, we won't have the votes.
If you see what they're doing and your jaw clenches, make an immediate donation to the DSCC. We have only 6 days to raise $368,000, hold the majority and stop their attacks on our rights.
Fall short, and Republicans will take the Senate, the White House - total control of Washington. Then they'll subject all of us to their draconian ideas.
Can I count on your help? Your $5 or $10 right now will take the fight straight to the Republicans, and not a moment too soon!
We're on the right track. President Obama is strengthening our middle class, creating good jobs and moving our nation forward. It's no time to shift into reverse.
Meanwhile, Republicans are attacking birth control. Trying to end the Violence Against Women Act. It's enough to make your head spin.
If you're as disgusted as I am about this, I need you to turn that anger into action, right now. We can defeat them - even Republicans admit that their chances of taking back the Senate have slumped a bit. But we won't win with insufficient resources. Remember: Karl Rove and his shady friends are spending $120 million to defeat Democratic candidates.
If we can raise $368,000 by the end of the month, we'll be able to stop them from taking the Senate and White House. If we don't, we can't.
Your $5 or $10 right now will help defeat the extreme Republicans. What you do right now will make a huge difference in the fight going forward!
This fight isn't just about health care, or women's rights, or economics. It's about the kind of country we want to live in. And I sure don't like what the Republicans are pushing.
Sincerely,
Sen. Patty Murray
