Kirsten is counting on you, friend

AMAZING NEWS:
"Gillibrand revives push to pass Equal Rights Amendment"

Friend, Kirsten is fighting to enshrine gender equity and reproductive rights in our Constitution — and she's counting on 25,000 Democrats to stand with her.

Add your name before 11:‌59 p.‌m. tonight to show your support for the ERA!

SIGN ON NOW

Friend, activists have spent 100 years fighting to add the Equal Rights Amendment to our Constitution. This long-overdue amendment would establish that our civil rights cannot be infringed upon or taken away on the basis of gender.

Now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, far-right legislators have unleashed a slew of attacks against our reproductive rights and our right to privacy. Passing the ERA is our best bet to restore those crucial rights — and we can't wait a moment longer.

Polling shows 85% of voters support the ERA — and 38 states have ratified it, clearing the way to add it to the Constitution. But an arbitrary deadline is stopping us from finally certifying this amendment!

Thankfully, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand has introduced a resolution that would allow us to ignore this deadline and make the ERA the law of the land. With bipartisan support, filibuster reform and strong grassroots backing, Kirsten can get the job done.

But right-wing extremists and anti-choice radicals are attacking the ERA and undermining Kirsten's work. She's counting on reliable Democrats like you to raise your voices in support of gender equity. Please, will you add your name before midnight tonight to show Kirsten that you back the ERA?

SIGN ON NOW

A note from Kirsten:

Friend, I can't thank you enough for standing by my side in the critical fights ahead of us. As Democrats face our toughest Senate map in decades, I need your help more than ever.

While Republicans only have to defend 10 seats in 2024, Democrats have to defend 23 – and if the GOP flips just two of them, it will deliver Senate control back to Mitch McConnell. Now, experts at FiveThirtyEight are saying that the GOP has a clear path to the majority.

As right-wing special interests gear up to pour millions into flipping the Senate, we need to fight back right now. But I refuse to take a single cent from corporate PACs, which means I'm relying on your grassroots support. So please, chip in to help defend our narrow Democratic Senate majority. And if you'd like to become a core member of my team and receive exclusive texts from my campaign, text JOIN to 60708.

Thank you,

Kirsten Gillibrand
