Lucas,
If we want to change the outcomes in Congress, we need to change the makeup of Congress.
I know three bold women running to serve in the House of Representatives who are ready to do just that, but they need our help raising $15,000 before the March 31 FEC deadline. It is only days away.
- A top-tier candidate of the DCCC, Staci Appel would be the first woman elected to federal office in Iowa history! And she has already demonstrated her problem-solving ability and readiness to take on whatever the GOP and its allies throw at her. Winning races like these are what our Off the Sidelines movement is all about.
- Remember that all-male panel that shut out women while it discussed access to contraception? Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan was on it. We cannot have that kind of thinking in Washington, which is why we need to help Pamela Byrnes defeat him. Help Pam change Congress and fight for women by defeating Rep. Walberg.
- Rep. Terri Sewell is the lone Democratic woman in Alabama's congressional delegation. We need to re-elect her to keep the state from being fully overtaken by the Tea Party. Give now to help re-elect Terri.
We have incredible opportunities in these three districts and the right women to seize them, but we have to do our part: These women need $15,000 by the March 31 FEC deadline. Join me in donating now to win back the House.
If women made up 51% of Congress, we would not be talking about things like limiting access to essential women's health services. We are at 18% now and will only get where we need to go by taking it seat by seat.
In Staci, Pam and Terri, we have the women to do it, our fighters. We have 3 days to answer the call in this critical moment.
Join me in making sure they can overcome the national GOP and its Super PAC allies. We need them to take back the House and move forward on the critical issues facing our country today.
Thank you for being a champion, time and time again.
