Make no mistake: Right now, in front of our eyes, the Republicans are coming after Roe v. Wade.
The bills passed this month in Alabama, Ohio, Missouri, and Georgia are an abomination. And this is a systematic threat.
“The abortion ban is designed to challenge Roe v. Wade at the Supreme Court, and if Roe v. Wade is struck down, this will become the template that every state will follow.” – Linda Coleman-Madison, Alabama State Senator
We cannot go back to the dark ages of reproductive rights. We must fight back.
The National Network of Abortion Funds is a network of more than 80 funds in at least 38 states that seeks to eliminate economic barriers for low-income individuals seeking an abortion. Their work is critical, especially now: Make a donation to the National Network of Abortion Funds to ensure that every woman who needs an abortion can access one.
As your next president, I will bring Washington’s strong record of protecting women’s access to reproductive care to the rest of the nation. Last year, I signed a bill into law that would require all health insurers to cover abortion if they also cover maternity care. It also mandated coverage for every form of birth control, including emergency contraception, without any out-of-pocket costs.
Reproductive healthcare, including family planning and abortion, is healthcare. Let’s fight like hell to protect it.
Very truly yours,
Jay
