We are writing with
exciting news for our members, our candidates
and the common sense Republican movement. At the
outset of this 2010 election year, The WISH List
is preparing to join forces with our
longtime strategic partner, the Republican
Majority for Choice. They share our commitment
to the fight for common sense in the GOP,
preserving women’s reproductive rights and,
through their PAC, to the election of
pro-choice
Republicans.
Together, our combined memberships will present
a formidable force against extremists at both
ends of the political spectrum who would seek to
silence voices of moderation in our local, state
and federal governments. The stakes we fight for
remain high; as mainstream Republicans we must
remain vigilant in our efforts to preserve
women’s reproductive health choices in 2010 and
beyond.
Since The WISH List
was founded in 1992, our organization has
provided strategic advice, training, and
financial support to hundreds of outstanding
pro-choice Republican women candidates. With the
help of loyal members like you, WISH Members
have given a combined total of $3.5 million in
contributions to impressive GOP women running
for local, state and federal offices all across
the country.
Our efforts helped to
maintain a strong force of socially moderate,
fiscally conservative GOP women in the U.S.
Congress. The WISH List also has helped elect
dozens of state legislators, as well as
mainstream governors such as former New Jersey
Governor Christine Todd Whitman and Connecticut
Governor Jodi Rell. Thank you for your
commitment to this important cause!
WISH urges you to
help us continue this important fight by
supporting The WISH List Project through the
Republican Majority for Choice and asks that you
join or renew your Republican Majority for
Choice membership today.
This new
endeavor creates exciting opportunities for WISH
List members. You can designate your
contribution by writing a check to The WISH List
Project, and these funds will be used to promote
the outstanding work of pro-choice
Republican women who are fighting for the issues
we care so much about. You can also make your
check out to the Republican Majority for Choice
to be designated for projects ranging from
legislative advocacy to grass roots lobbying at
the state and federal levels.
Your resources will
be used to promote a common sense GOP message
through editorials and press events. With your
support, we also will continue our efforts to
stop the passage of fundamental, anti-choice
resolutions and the further swing to the extreme
at the Republican National Committee. In
addition, The WISH List Project will continue
mailings for individual candidates as we always
have, and we hope that you will continue to
support our great candidates.
In the coming weeks,
we will be revealing a streamlined website and
social media network that will give common sense
Republicans a one-stop opportunity to offer
support and find more information about issues
from legislation to ballot initiatives to
campaign updates and beyond.
Thank you for your
longtime friendship and support of The WISH List
and its Republican women candidates. With your
help, WISH has made a significant improvement in
the political landscape in Washington, D.C. and
in state capitols across the country. We are
confident that this new endeavor will take these
goals to the next level. We have more
opportunities now than ever and we hope you
will continue to work with us to keep this
effort alive and moving forward!
