If we want to win everything the right to an abortion and women's rights are our #1 issue for 2024. Period.

That's it.

The economy is better than portrayed (or than the perception). Inflation way down. Unemployment way down. Wages increasing. Manufacturing coming back to USA (CHIPS Act, etc.). Brag on those accomplishments.

Also? NONE OF THAT MATTERS IF WOMEN ARE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS (and CRIMINALIZED for having control over their bodies). LEAD with that.

Not only SHOULD it be more important than all other issues, it IS (per the voters across all demographics).

Voting rights would be my number one issue. Republicans are trying everywhere to make it harder to vote.

If everyone can vote that wants to vote, women will get the rights they seek. If their right to vote is curtailed, they will not.
