Dear Lucas,
I just got some unbelievable news.
Remember last week when right-wing Senator Roy Blunt's amendment would have given employers power over medical decisions from birth control to vaccinations? How do you think Republican Linda Lingle -- who's running against Mazie Hirono for Senate in Hawai'i -- reacted?
Do you think she immediately condemned him? Nope. Linda Lingle invited Roy Blunt to headline a fundraiser for her in DC.
Could there be a better example of why you need to support Mazie Hirono? This race is critical -- we have got to hold on to this seat to keep our majority in the Senate, and Mazie can't win unless we stand behind her.
Send a strong message to Linda Lingle and her extreme right pals by rushing a contribution to Mazie Hirono's campaign immediately. 100% of your contribution will go directly to her campaign.
We were able to stop the Blunt amendment because our pro-choice Democratic women in the Senate stood strong and worked together to defeat it. But the vote was close, just 51-48. That means every single Senate race could make the difference the next time this -- or any other attack on our rights -- comes up.
We know that Mazie Hirono, who has been a progressive champion in the House, will stand with us. But Linda Lingle? She's shown she has no problem standing arm-in-arm with Roy Blunt.
Let's show Linda Lingle that cozying up with Roy Blunt is a big mistake. Contribute right now, today, to help Mazie win. Remember, 100% of your contribution will go directly to her campaign.
This is a highly competitive race and a top GOP target, but I know with your help Mazie can win and help us hold our firewall in the Senate.
Thanks for everything.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Parker
Political Director
