Democrats have raised $80 million within a week after the fall of Roe v. Wade: report

In the week after the Supreme Court's decision, Democrats raised 80 million dollars.

Party officials told the AP that most of the donations were going to national campaigns and causes rather than state-level races. Now that the landmark decision making abortion legal in the US has been overturned, it's up to individual states to come up with their own legislation.

When Republicans are eager to intrude on our health care decisions, bedrooms, and marriages, we can't afford Democrats' systemic neglect of down-ballot races. It should be a wake-up call.

A quarter of the funds were collected in the first day after the Supreme Court's ruling.

Now that the Supreme Court has ruled in favor of abortion rights, many conservative states have laws in place to prevent it. According to the AP, Republicans tend to raise more money than Democrats in state and local races.

A Florida Democrat who raises money for national and state campaigns told the AP that Democrats win legislative races when they spend 1-to-1 with Republicans. We get clobbered when it's 3-to-1 or 4-to-1.
