Hello SSP! We just wanted to make sure that those of you in Illinois or with friends/family in Illinois know that Bill Brady has built a 17 year political career consistently working against the interests of working women, and how that will affect him in this campaign.
As is this is all about politics here at SSP, not necessarily policy, it’s important to note how women are slipping away from the Brady campaign. See Rich Miller’s article analyzing a Rasmussen poll taken before the Stop Bill Brady campaign launched by the DGA:
If you’d like to see the latest ad hitting Bill Brady on issues important to working women, take a minute to visit our new website, http://www.StopBillBrady.com, and watch the video highlighting Bill Brady’s opposition to working women, his opposition to Equal Pay, his opposition to paid family medical leave, his opposition to paid maternity leave, his opposition to life-saving mammogram screenings and his opposition to a woman’s right to choose, even in the case of rape.
Here’s a sampling of what voters in Illinois will learn by November:
* Bill Brady opposed enhanced penalties for domestic abuse.
* Bill Brady sponsored bill to allow pharmacists to deny women contraception based on their personal beliefs.
* Bill Brady voted against creating the Minority and Female Franchise Act.
* Bill Brady was one of two reps who voted against a bill that required mothers be provided with a minimum of 48 hours of in-patient care after delivery and a minimum of 96 hours of in-patient care following a C-section.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! If you’re as disturbed by the idea of a Bill Brady as Governor of Illinois as we are, then you’ll see why this will have a real impact on this race.

P.S. We promise to read any thoughts and questions posted in the comments.
since early June. Is Pat Quinn currently up on the air?
ask suburban women, if your 13-year old daughter was raped and pregnant, would you want her to be able to obtain an abortion? bill brady doesn’t.
I wrote a post about how Pat Quinn can win and you guys at StopBillBrady.com might want to take a look at it to see if I offered any insights you guys did not think about too much. The post was written in May but a large amount of the suggestions should still be relevant though.
