Big deal (Planned Parenthood). GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE MOLLY KELLY.

Dear David,
Throughout my life, I’ve championed women’s reproductive rights.
So when news broke yesterday that Planned Parenthood New Hampshire Action Fund endorsed me for governor of New Hampshire, it was a big deal.
Planned Parenthood is on the front lines for women in New Hampshire and across our country to make sure everyone has access to the health care they need – from cancer screenings to LGBTQ services to reproductive health care.
I share their commitment, and I’m proud and honored to have their endorsement.
Now is a critical time for Planned Parenthood and women’s reproductive rights.
It’s been a generation since we’ve faced this big of a threat to reproductive rights.
With Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, on the cusp of a lifetime appointment, we’re facing unprecedented attacks on a woman’s right to access a safe, legal abortion. And Chris Sununu is supporting Kavanaugh anyway.
As governor, I won’t allow women’s reproductive rights to go backward. Every woman, regardless of income, will continue to have access to a safe, legal abortion as long as I’m in the corner office.
Now I need your help to unseat a Republican governor to protect reproductive rights for Granite Staters.

Thank you,
Molly Kelly

Urgent: Breitbart/NRA attack. CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE MAURA SULLIVAN.

Maura’s latest TV ad has gained serious attention. NRA TV and Breitbart have some choice words for her stance on gun reform. Michael Graham and former U.S. Marine, Jessie Jane Duff, took the opportunity to mock Maura’s service and spread misinformation about assault weapons and common-sense gun legislation in the United States.

While Breitbart and the NRA are calling Maura an “oathbreaker” and claiming that true Marines can’t believe in common-sense gun legislation, Maura understands that service to the United States and the Constitution does not stop with one’s active military service. The duty to protect American lives means bringing people together to find common ground on legislation that will keep our kids and community safe. 

Supporters of the NRA are going to do all they can to ignore thoughtful, bipartisan discussion on gun reform. They will continue with the low blows and petty attacks. The only way we can rise above their reckless rhetoric is by continuing to fundraise, knock on doors, and win this critical swing district,

Your support means everything,


Team Maura

Is one debate too much to ask for? CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE KEN HARBAUGH.

You know it’s a bad sign when voters can’t remember how long it’s been since they’ve seen their elected representative.
Way back in April, in a rare public appearance, Bob Gibbs was asked if he would participate in a single debate before the general election.
He brushed the question off as “overblown.” He said, “I’ll decide that later.” Eventually.
Eventually? What could possibly be more important than participating in democracy? What is preventing him from being a representative and doing his job?
Well, we found out what’s been keeping him so ‘busy.’ More than 75% of Gibbs’ campaign is funded by corporate and political PACs. When he’s not voting to cut Medicare and strip health care from Ohio families, he’s doing the bidding of PACs and promoting their interests over ours.
America isn’t an aristocracy and it’s not a monarchy. Our elected officials are accountable to the PEOPLE. That’s why I’m calling on Gibbs to agree to an in-person, public debate with me once and for all.
Demand Bob Gibbs agree to an in-person public debate
In service,
Ken
