Hi there,

Every day our women in the House are fighting the good fight.
 
But their impact is impeded by the Republicans' huge majority. 
Remember, this is a group that's so extreme, John Boehner left 
Congress because he got tired of dealing with their unwillingness to 
listen to reason or popular opinion.
 
So this year we're going to cut that GOP majority down.
 
To do that, we have to hold on to our key blue seats and replace 
some of the most extreme Republicans with pro-choice Democratic 
women.
 
That's why we need to step up and support Colleen Deacon in New 
York, Nanette Barragán in California, and Monica Vernon in Iowa. All 
three have primaries in June that they need to win.
 
Donate $3 or more now to help elect Colleen, Nanette, and Monica. 100% of 
your donation will go directly to their campaigns:

A single mom, Colleen won't stop fighting for policies to help the 
families in her district like equal pay and college affordability. She 
worked as Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's regional director in Central 
New York. Because of that, she knows the major impact that 
government can have on people's lives. Colleen's running against 
conservative Republican Congressman John Katko this year, and 
she can win.
 
Nanette is running to fill a vacant seat held by a retiring Democrat. 
She's the most progressive candidate running in her district. She's 
also fought to protect the Santa Monica Bay from oil drilling, and 
she'll continue to work on protecting our environment in Congress.
 
Monica is running against extremist Congressman Rod Blum in one 
of the most Democratic districts represented by a Republican. He 
cosponsored a national abortion ban and opposed raising the 
minimum wage. He's part of the problem. We have a great shot at 
flipping this seat, and Monica's the strongest Democrat to go up 
against Blum in November.
 
We need these women in the House to make progress despite the 
Republican extremists.
 
Donate $3 or more now to help Colleen, Nanette, and Monica win their June 
primaries. 100% of your donation will go directly to their campaigns:
