A Tree Crushed My House

During the horrific storm on the night of July 4th,  a tree fell on my house demolishing more than 50% of it. We were lucky. No one was home.

A devastating personal disaster, but also the perfect metaphor for the deadly storm brewing in this nation as it confronts its 250-year anniversary and an administration hell bent on destroying it.

Our country and Democracy, like my home, must be rebuilt from the bottom up. But unlike my house, our country has only 112 days left to pour the foundation. We must act.

On June 23rd – four years minus one day since Roe v. Wade was overturned – Democratic voters in NYS Congressional District 17* took a critical step toward rebuilding our Democracy. They elected ProChoice Voter-endorsed Choice Matters candidate Cait Conley to run against and DEFEAT MAGA Mike Lawler.

Cait Conley must win this critical seat if we are to take back the House and save our Democracy.

But candidates don’t win on their own.

They need voters like you – and all of Choice Matters’ other 80,000+ pro-choice voters! Together we are THE KEY to Victory. Please, if you believe in a country where constitutional rights are guaranteed and medical decisions are private choices, I’m urging you to please support our work so we can reach every pro-choice voter in the district. Every dollar will help us contact one more pro-choice voter who will help decide this election in November.

Choice Matters is fighting relentlessly to take back Congress with a critical win in CD 17 while also powering pro-choice NY state campaigns to victory. At the heart of this is a simple truth: we must build back better and stronger than every before.

We can come together to build a new politics where civil rights are not debated but instead guaranteed. We the people can come together to take back power, but only with your help. 29 million women of reproductive age are living in states with abortion bans. THEY ARE COUNTING ON YOU.
