The Republicans are waging an unprecedented war on women.
I wish Congressman Akin's indefensible "legitimate rape” comments were just an isolated incident but this is really just another sad chapter in the GOP’s extreme right-wing agenda. The Republicans are now acting stunned by the Congressman’s statement, but we need to ask them: Where was your outrage when Todd Akin and Paul Ryan supported legislation to redefine rape to the made-up phrase of “forcible rape”?
It’s clear a GOP-controlled Congress will stop at nothing to take women back to the dark ages. But, we can stop them.
Fighting back starts right here and right now with electing more women to Congress. The next 48 hours are critical for Lois’s campaign. Lois is a top target of nearly every shady right-wing outside group intent on keeping the Republicans in power. In the next 48 hours, she must show that she has the resources to go toe-to-toe with these outside groups.
Please help her fight back now. The next 48 hours are critical. Please contribute to Lois Frankel now.
Before we elected President Obama and passed health care reform, being a woman was a preexisting condition. We have fought too hard for the progress we have made on women health and women's rights to let the GOP-controlled Congress turn back the clock. We cannot go back.
Help me send Lois to Washington to fight for the issues we care about. Help her stand with me in Washington and fight back against these right-wing outside groups and finally put an end to the war on women. Contribute to Lois Frankel now.
Thank you,
Barbara Boxer U.S. Senator
