What happens in Texas doesn't stay in Texas.
I'm Wendy Davis. I took a stand earlier this summer and filibustered an initiative to reform health care in Texas. If you were one of the thousands who stood with me that night: thank you.
But Texas didn't invent the idea of trying to legislate health center safety.
Ken Cuccinelli fought for years to impose regulations on health centers in Virginia. He won that fight and one overcrowded center has already shut down. Since then similar laws spread to Ohio, to North Carolina, and of course to Texas.
But we can stop this assault on access to health care before it goes any further.
Donate $20 to Terry's campaign to defeat Ken Cuccinelli and show his allies that there's a real political cost of taking access to health care away.
When I stood up in Texas, I was overwhelmed by the number of people who stood with me.
Concerned Texans packed the gallery that night making it a true people's filibuster.
Tens of thousands of people around the country tweeted, emailed, and amplified our message to keep the fight going.
And hundreds of Virginians dug deep to contribute to our fight in Texas, because they couldn't watch idly while Texas women lost access to health care.
Now it's my turn to return that favor to Virginia.
My friend Terry McAuliffe believes everyone should be able to make their health decisions with their doctor — and without extreme politicians trying to impose their agenda.
Electing Terry sends a powerful message about the strength of patients and our allies when we band together.
Donate $20 right now to show Ken Cuccinelli, Rick Perry, and all of their allies scheming to push this kind of legislation that we're only getting stronger.
Your friend and proud ally from Texas,
Wendy
