Gabrielle Giffords, Dina Titus, and Judy Baker are 3 great female candidates for the U.S. House. They need your help. Click here to donate to their campaigns today!

A lot has been made over the last couple of weeks about gender and politics. I'm here to tell you that standing up for women's issues is not about sending just any woman to Washington -- no matter what the right-wing is trying to sell America.

No, it's about electing candidates who are fighting for issues that truly matter to women. It's about protecting a woman's right to choose. It's about education. It's about health care. And it's about protecting our families both at home and abroad.

I need your help today to elect three great female candidates for the U.S. House, who are fighting on the issues that matter to Americans: Gabrielle Giffords (AZ-8), Dina Titus (NV-3), and Judy Baker (MO-9). Contribute to Gabrielle, Dina, and Judy today!

Gabrielle Giffords

Gabrielle Giffords

Gabrielle Giffords is a first term Congresswoman running for re-election in Arizona's 8th Congressional District. Gabrielle's business experience has made her an effective leader, successfully pushing 7 bills and amendments into law while introducing over 20 pieces of legislation in the House. Her priorities include expanding health care for American families and promoting alternative energy research and development.

Gabrielle's a rising star in our Party, and we must keep her seat in Congress. But her race is one of the most competitive in the country, and she needs our help. The right-wing is pouring in national resources in an attempt to take back this seat. In fact, George W. Bush visited Arizona to campaign for her opponent earlier this summer, raising half a million dollars.

Help Gabrielle fight back against the likes of George W. Bush. Contribute to her campaign today!

Dina Titus

Dina Titus

Dina has worked tirelessly on behalf of Nevada's most vulnerable citizens by promoting legislation that allows seniors and other Nevadans to purchase less expensive prescription drugs from Canada, mandates tougher penalties for criminals who commit identity theft, and increases penalties for offenders who perpetrate crimes against the disabled.

Her opponent, Jon Porter, has spent the last six years fighting for the Washington special interests. That's why he doesn't want to run on the issues and is up with the first negative ad in the race. I am asking you to join me and help Dina fight back.

Help Dina fight back against the negative attacks. Contribute to her campaign today!

Judy Baker is running in Missouri's 9th Congressional District.

Judy Baker

Judy Baker

It's a tough district with a partisan voting index of R+7, but her first poll shows her two points ahead of her opponent. This is exactly the kind of race the WesPAC community has made our specialty. We don't back down from the tough fights, and this is one of them.

Judy's experience saving rural health clinics and operating her own small business has made her a strong leader in the state legislature, where she has advocated for education an health care access. She stood up to the Republican governor's plan to cut 200,000 children and seniors off of Medicaid and voted to cut her own benefits instead.

The polls show Judy within striking distance of Republican Blaine Luetkemeyer. We need to help her make up the difference. Please contribute to Judy's campaign today!

This is an historic election. We have an opportunity make gains up and down the ballot. Please take a moment and help Gabrielle, Dina, and Judy today.

Thank you. Your support is making a difference.

Sincerely,

Wes Clark

Austin Congressman Lloyd Doggett (Tx-25) introduced Wes Clark to the packed reception.

Help Andrew Rice keep up his momentum -- click here to donate to his Senate campaign today!

Like me, Andrew Rice never thought he'd run for office. But Andrew's life took a dramatic turn when his older brother was killed in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center. The tragedy redirected Andrew on a course of public activism, first with the surviving families of 9/11 and later with a successful run for State Senate in Oklahoma.

Today, he's challenging Republican incumbent Senator James Inhofe in Oklahoma, who has blindly supported the Bush administration's failed war policies in Iraq. Andrew's campaign is gaining momentum every day, but he needs your help to defeat Inhofe this fall.

Andrew has spent his entire life helping others less fortunate than himself. He holds a Master's Degree in Theology, and has worked in Sri Lanka and Thailand to help fight disease and hunger. As a State Senator, Andrew added 38,000 Oklahoma children to a government-sponsored health insurance program and helped create a task force to tackle the problem of hunger in Oklahoma.

Andrew's record stands in strong contrast to that of Senator Inhofe, who has voted against veterans' health care funding, against funding for troops in the field including armored vehicles, and has blocked an increase in medical care funding for active duty military personnel.

We need more leaders like Andrew Rice in the Senate -- click on the link below to contribute to his campaign today!

Already, Inhofe's failure to represent the needs of Oklahoma is costing him votes. Recent polling by Pete Brodnitz of Benenson Strategy Group found that when Oklahoma voters hear positive statements about Rice's values, agenda and background, they favor him over the incumbent by a 43% to 41% margin. And while Oklahoma has long been dismissed as a "red" state, Andrew's commitment to a new direction for America is gaining traction across the state among voters who are weary of Inhofe's extremist politics.

Let's prove the media and our opponents wrong, and show that Oklahoma is ready to send a Democrat to the Senate. Contribute to Andrew's campaign today!
