My daughter is now less free than I was at her age.

[No Dem Left Behind]( [Winning America's Heartland]( I am the third in a line of four women named Margaret. My grandmother, Margaret Cooke Byers, was born in 1897and turned 22 on the day that Congress passed the 19th Amendment, which allowed women to vote. My mother, Peggy Byers Wood, saw women achieve the right to control their own bodies, finances, and futures with the Roe decision. I am the third Margaret, becoming the second woman in the history of America to be elected both Governor and Senator. Over the course of my grandmother's, my mother's, and my lifetime, women have made tremendous progress towards achieving their rights as full and equal citizens in our democracy. But now, for the first time in our country's history, a generation of American women have fewer rights than their mothers did. My daughter, the fourth Margaret in my family, is now less free than I was at her age. This is a grave moment for American women and for our democracy. The Supreme Court has taken away the freedom of half the population, freedom that most American women have known for their entire lives. It seems daunting to contemplate where we go from here. But we have been in similar fights before. We have to keep fighting. We have to organize, mobilize, vote, and do everything in our power to protect our Senate majority – because if Mitch McConnell becomes the Majority Leader, he will ban abortion nationwide. We owe it to ourselves and the next generation — to women like my daughter, Margaret number four — to keep fighting. [So please, join me in this fight by rushing]( any amount you can to continue the progress we've been working on for hundreds of years.]( [Chip in $25]( [Chip in $50]( [Chip in $100]( [Chip in Other Amount]( [divider] Text JOIN to 20306 [Facebook]( [Twitter]( [Instagram]( [YouTube]( Winning America's Heartland [donate]( No Dem Left Behind PAC PO Box 15320 Washington, DC 20003 United States [www.NoDemLeftBehind.com]( Paid for by No Dem Left Behind PAC.
