[PortTack]

2. Not only donors, there have been marches and protests all over AZ!

[spooky3]

14. Thank you.

[JustAnotherGen]

5. They have to

I'm one of their donors - and I won't give them a single cent if they are supporting her. They've heard from quite a few of us.

[dem4decades]

8. Keep up the good work. And the noise, you have the power.

[TNNurse]

18. Absolutely

[SallyHemmings]

21. Thank you!

[WA-03 Democrat]

6. Second, third, fourth and fifth chances

Have all been used. What additional evidence does EMILY's need to see the obvious?

[mucifer]

9. I think they are hoping with pressure she will change her mind

[dem4decades]

10. Is Emily's List a Susan Collins? You know, greatly concerned?

[WA-03 Democrat]

27. Maybe its a regional

thing. Maybe Emily sounds like Susan (how did she win re-election?) in Maine

Time for action - either your for voting or you are not!

[tenderfoot]

11. Don't threaten - just do it

eom

[llmart]

13. They may be waiting until the final vote is in.

[Cha]

16. Yeah, you're probably right.

[Cha]

15. Hello.. Go For IT!

[whathehell]

17. Good -- They should do it. n/t

[monkeyman1]

19. need big corporations to sound off !! like that's going too happen ??????????????????????

[Delphinus]

20. They should just do it.

[Polly Hennessey]

22. What are they waiting for. Just do it.

She deserves zip.

[Mr.Bill]

23. The fact that they have endorsed her up until now

tells me all I need to know about Emily's List.

[WA-03 Democrat]

28. I am disappointed too

I thought it meant something positive. One less group to donate to and a mailing listing I can nuke

[hadEnuf]

24. Time to make it worse for Manchin and Sinema to block the filibuster exception than it would be

if they support it.

These little wayward sheep need to return to the flock - or else.

[BlueIdaho]

25. THE fundamental right in a democracy is the right to vote

Emily’s List understands, why don’t Sinema and ManChin?

[paleotn]

26. don't threaten. Do it.

[Meowmee]

29. I doubt it will have an effect

But they should withdraw endorsement for many other reasons anyway.

[UTUSN]

30. K&R

[awesomerwb1]

31. Like she cares.

That money will easily be replaced by MAGA donors.

[Layzeebeaver]

32. Endorsements are not cash.

She will not give half a shit.

[LoisB]

33. She probably doesn't but it may sway some voters.

[Layzeebeaver]

38. Very true, unfortunately.

[barbtries]

34. Do it.

We need our Democrats in office to be Democrats working for us.

[onecaliberal]

35. Do it already. She lied to those who voted for her.

[Ford_Prefect]

36. I suspect the problem is that Sinema would rather be paid off than re-elected.

[gldstwmn]

37. They should just go ahead and do it. She doesn't give a damn.

[Raine]

39. She doesn't need their money days ago

I read somewhere on the internet that she's getting super large donations from lots of wealthy supporters. 🤑
