Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
DGA-Backed Group Announces First Ad in Pennsylvania
Today, Put Pennsylvania First, an independent expenditure backed by the Democratic Governors Association launched its first ad of the general election in Pennsylvania. The spot, called “Mastriano Backwards”, uses video of Mastriano’s own words to show how the GOP nominee’s extreme agenda to take away women’s reproductive freedoms would drag Pennsylvania backward and reverse 50 years of women’s rights. Mastriano would make all abortions illegal, criminalizing doctors, and forcing pregnancies even for victims of rape or incest.
Watch the ad here and see a full transcript below:
Narrator: “For 50 years, women have had the right to make their own health care decisions.
The freedom to control their own bodies.
But now, the Supreme Court wants to set women’s rights back a half-century.”
Mastriano: “My body, my choice is ridiculous nonsense.”
Narrator: “As governor, Doug Mastriano would make all abortions illegal.
“Criminalizing doctors.
“Forcing pregnancies even for victims of rape and incest.”
Mastriano: “I don’t give a way for exceptions either.”
