What a difference 6 years makes:

President Obama Took Office (January 2009)		Today
7,949	The Dow Jones Index	17,390
7.8%	Unemployment	5.9%
-5.4%	GDP Growth	4.6%
9.8%	Deficit GDP %	2.8%
37.7	Consumer Confidence	94.5

President Obama has done so much for so many people. And he’s done it against unprecedented Republican obstruction.

It hasn’t been easy. But President Obama kept fighting for us.

So we owe this to him: we have to do everything we can to give President Obama a Congress he can work with for his final 2 years.

every dollar you give today helps us get one more Obama voter to the polls.

This election is teetering on a knife’s edge. If we’re going to give President Obama a Democratic victory, we need as much help as we can get in these final days. Can you help?

Women’s Health and Human Life Protection Act

On February 22, 2006, the state legislature of South Dakota passed an act banning all medical abortions except those necessary to save the mother’s life (see double effect). Rounds signed the act on March 6 and the ban was to have taken effect on July 1, 2006, but never did because of a court challenge. A referendum for a potential repeal of H.B. 1215 was placed on the ballot for the November 2006 statewide election due to a successful petition.^[12] On May 30, over 38,000 signatures were filed, more than twice the 17,000 required to qualify. The law was ultimately repealed by voters on November 7, 2006, the day of Rounds’ re-election.^[13]

Republicans’ plans for after the election: Video

10/30/2014 Nativegrl77

Dear fellow MoveOn member,

If they seize control of the Senate, Republicans will use a powerful but little-known tool to ram through legislation that favors big corporations and the 1% at everyone else’s expense.

I made this video to explain:

It’s on us to spread the word. Please forward this email, share the video via social media like Facebook and Twitter, and then sign up to make get-out-the-vote phone calls as part of MoveOn’s Voters Rising campaign.
