Rich -- Matt Mackowiak, a surrogate for Wendy’s Republican opponent Greg Abbott, went on television this weekend and called rape and incest “minor issues.” I can’t believe I even have to write this -- contrary to what Abbott and his allies might believe, rape and incest are horrific crimes, not “minor issues.” This is just one of the many, many examples of how Greg Abbott is dramatically out of touch. Texans will not stand for Abbott or anyone who works on his behalf, belittling crimes against women for political gain. We cannot remain silent. We need to fight back the only way we can -- giving Wendy the support she needs to win in November. Our Filing Deadline is Wednesday. We’re $100,228 short of our $800,000 goal. Hitting this goal is CRITICAL. Can you give right now? It’s absolutely disgusting that someone would go on television and dismiss rape and incest as minor issues. It’s even more disgusting that Greg Abbott, a candidate for major political office, would embrace this man as a surrogate rather than denounce Mackowiak’s remarks. We can’t make Abbott take the crimes of rape and incest seriously. But we can make sure that Wendy has the resources to beat him. We’ve got 3 days to reach our $800,000 Filing Day goal. We CANNOT miss it. Give $5 today. Thank you for your help today. Terrysa Terrysa Guerra Deputy Campaign Manager Wendy R. Davis for Governor, Inc.
