Lucas,
One. Just one Democratic woman in our country is the governor of her state.
That isn't good enough. We can't let Governor Maggie Hassan in New Hampshire do it alone. Not when the GOP is running rampant in state capitals trying to push dreadfully anti-woman bills. Not when state Republicans are ramming through bills that would make abortion illegal after just six weeks. Or bills that rip funding from Planned Parenthood, shutter clinics, and restrict health care access -- bills that clearly target women.
The solution? More Democratic women in governors' mansions. And EMILY's List is the organization that will make that happen.
Our candidates must win to keep women across the country safe -- and we must support them right now, when the GOP's national approval is dreadful. Contribute to EMILY's List immediately to help elect the women governors the country desperately needs!
Imagine a woman governor like Wendy Davis, who'll ensure Texas women don't have to suffer from the anti-women antics of Greg Abbott, carrying out the legacy of his buddy Rick Perry. Or a woman governor like Allyson Schwartz who'll make sure Tom "just close your eyes" Corbett doesn't get to decide what's best for women and families.
These women will not only get things done, but they will protect women and families. They need our support today. Contribute right now.
We've seen how Democratic women will stand up for us in Washington, now we need to make sure they can do it in state capitals across the country.
Let's make it happen.
All the best,
Amy K. Dacey
Executive Director, EMILY's List
