Lucas,
Believe it or not, it's been almost 20 years since a Democratic woman was governor in Texas.
And thanks to Wendy Davis, that is about to change.
When Wendy added her name to the ballot, Texas got the chance to turn over a new leaf in 2014. But Wendy needs our help every single step of the way.
Stand with EMILY's List and the Democratic Governors Association in support of Wendy Davis.
In just four days, thousands of people have joined EMILY's List in support of Wendy's campaign. But it's going to take the help of a lot more people -- all across the country -- if Wendy is going to win in a state as big and as tough as Texas.
Wendy has been waiting for this moment. She has laced up her sneakers, tied them extra tight, and is ready for a 13-month marathon to win the Texas Capitol.
Last week, Texas Right to Life already launched attack ads against Wendy in both English and Spanish. And if the recent vicious smears are any indication, Wendy could face one of the ugliest campaigns we've ever seen.
But here's what I know about Wendy: She's ready, and she knows how to fight back. She's just going to need all of us to pledge to be right there with her.
Join EMILY's List and the DGA in support of Wendy Davis. Let Wendy know that we're ready to fight.
Thank you so much.
All the best,
Amy K. Dacey
