Don’t be fooled by SCOTUS’ Mifepristone Ruling

The SCOTUS 9-0 ruling against anti-abortion organizations and doctors (to be clear, not OBGYNs) who petitioned the FDA’s approval to broaden the distribution of Mifepristone, including mail options, was purely on standing. 

The same case will show up down the road, whether or not Trump is elected. 

But things will get much worse, if he is. You see, Project 2025 — the collaboration between the Heritage Foundation and other right-wing groups to shape a Trump second-term agenda — is calling to reverse the FDA’s approval of medication abortion.

That would criminalize 63% of abortions.

And that is the tip of a very scary iceberg that will threaten our democracy and America’s role in the world.

Midwest Values PAC is doing everything we can to make sure that doesn’t happen. Please help us get as many resources as possible into the battleground states where MVP will be helping to fund an intensive ground game.

The stakes couldn’t be higher.

Thank you,

Al

P.S. Will the U.S. be backing Ukraine after January 20, 2025? Only if we elect Joe Biden. The choice could not be clearer! Sorry this one isn’t funny!

Somehow, it’s been 20 years since I started Midwest Values PAC to help Democrats win elections — from progressive organizations to state legislatures to Congress to the White House — who share the values I grew up with in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Since 2006, Midwest Values PAC has invested more than $4 million in 341 candidates and organizations — and counting. 

Of course, none of this happens without you (or supporters like you) who care enough to pitch in.

As we mark our 20th anniversary, the work is more urgent than ever. This year, we have a big job: flip the House, take the Senate, and win up and down the ballot at the state and local level.

To mark our 20th year, we’ve set an ambitious goal: 26,000 contributions by Election Day 2026.

Thanks for being part of this fight, and for sticking with us for 20 years (or for just joining — welcome!).

P.S. Over the years, okay, decades, we’ve helped Democrats win tough races all across the country by investing early, intelligently, and strategically. That’s how you flip seats. That’s how you protect democracy. And that’s how you stop the worst impulses of a president who never should have been president in the first place.
