About the message:

This mailer from super PAC House Majority Project says Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman is "bad for women." He faces Democrat Jason Crow in the 6th Congressional District based in Denver's eastern and southwestern suburbs.

The mailer cites:

• Coffman's 2011 vote for a bill prohibiting taxpayer funding for abortion that excluded "forcible rape" rather than rape in general. Politifact rated this mostly true when used in the past.
• His 2011 vote to exclude abortion coverage from the affordable care act, including in cases of rape or incest. 
• His 2014 vote to eliminate funding for domestic violence programs in a budget bill.

About the messenger: The House Majority PAC is a federal super PAC focused on electing Democrats.

The messenger's money: This super PAC is funded by a bunch of wealthy Democrats, obvs. Thus far, most Colorado donors gave $500 or less, according to the Federal Election Commission.
