Dear Lucas,
I'm not going mince words: we need your help and we need it now.
Last week, we watched in shock as House Republicans called a panel of only men to testify in a Congressional committee hearing and debated access to birth control, insisting that they knew what's best for women.
That picture told us everything we need to know about the radical, right-wing anti-women conservatives in Washington who are using their power to set women back decades. Help us make sure that every woman in the country sees this picture and takes action to change it.
We're going up with an ad campaign today to reach women with this critical message, and we need your support right away to stay on the air.
We need to raise $100,000 in the next few hours to keep this ad on the air. Help us reach our goal -- click here now to contribute to our emergency media fund.
That picture of five men sitting at a table testifying about whether women should have access to birth control could be the defining image of the 2012 campaign. It is the Republican War on Women come to life: a group of men saying that they should be the ones to make decisions about women's health care.
Every woman in American needs to see that image. They need to know what Republicans are doing to their rights, and that there is a way to stop them: by electing pro-choice Democratic women who will fight for the rights and opportunities women and their families need. We're doing our part by airing this ad, but we need your help to spread it as far and wide as possible -- and we need to act quickly.
Help us make sure millions of women across America see this video. Click here and contribute to our emergency ad fund right now.
This is our moment, the moment to raise our voices loud and clear and make real change in this country. Thank you for being a part of our community at this critical time.
Take care, 
Stephanie Schriock
President
