John McCain’s record on reproductive rights couldn’t be more appalling.
There, we said it! We said it because the corporate media won’t confront
McCain on the real issues in this election. They won’t tell you, for
instance, that McCain has consistently received a big fat zero from
NARAL on its pro-choice scorecard. Nor will they tell you that McCain
has flip-flopped on Roe v. Wade and now supports overturning this
all-too-crucial case.Because the corporate media has failed to do its job, we have to work extra hard to do ours. And so we’ve created McCain’s Clinic, a sneak peek at what a women’s health clinic could look like if McCain were
elected.

We must spread awareness about McCain’s record now, especially
considering a recent Planned Parenthood poll found that half of female
voters in 16 battleground states don’t know enough about McCain’s views
on reproductive health. What’s more, one in four pro-choice McCain
supporters would be less likely to vote for McCain after knowing he
opposes Roe v. Wade and backs abstinence-only education.

Here’s what you can do: send this video to everyone you know and Digg
It! By taking these steps, you can help educate female voters in
battleground states about McCain’s anti-choice record.

We’re talking about a man who has voted anti-choice 123 out of 128
times. A man who wouldn’t require prescription coverage for birth
control. A man who voted against allocating $100 million to preventative
health services that would have reduced unintended and teen pregnancies.
A man who could irreparably damage women’s rights in our country unless
we get the word out about him now.

Support The Nation’s June Fundraising Campaign

With the midterm elections now firmly upon us, the question is whether Democratic candidates will do more than merely occupy ballot lines as mild alternatives to the red-hot crisis that is Donald Trump.

As Trump spends over $1 billion a day on a globally destabilizing war on Iran and admits that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation,” millions across the country are struggling with the surging costs of essentials. Democrats must seize this moment and advance bold, small-“d” populist ideas—not settle for cynical caution that once again snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Nation elevates progressive ideas, movements, and elected officials achieving real change across the country into the national conversation. At the same time, our journalists are exposing how crypto and AI-funded super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to knock out candidates they oppose, reporting on the devastating impact of the Supreme Court’s evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, and sounding the alarm on attempts by red states to quickly redraw electoral maps, disenfranchising Southern Black voters.

We can play this critical role because of support from readers like you. This June, we’re raising $20,000 to power The Nation’s independent journalism in the run-up to November’s immensely consequential elections.

It’s in our power to build a more just society, and your support at this critical moment brings us closer to that bold vision. I hope you’ll donate today.

Onward,
