The Supreme Court has overturned Roe v Wade, the 1973 decision that legalized abortion, reversing this Constitutional right, an atrocity. Now, they're coming for birth control, LGBTQ rights, voting rights and more.  

Join us in public to voice these demands:

The Illegitimate Overturning of Abortion Rights MUST NOT STAND!

INTO THE STREETS TO DEMAND:
The Federal Government Must Restore NATIONWIDE LEGAL ABORTION NOW

These will be determined, non-violent, visible, truth-telling public actions which shake the conscience of everyone involved, and everyone watching. Wear & spread #Green4Abortion, the international symbol of abortion rights. Have your signs ready. Act in the interests of people -- women and girls -- whose lives are being owned by the state.

CONVERGENCE!

You’ve heard the heart-wrenching stories. The ten-year old rape victim almost forced to give birth to her rapist’s baby. Women being brought to the brink of death from sepsis or bleeding out before they can get care for miscarriages or high-risk pregnancies. The desperate tears and pleas for help when patients expecting to get abortions were turned away from clinics the day Roe was overturned.

AND NOW A TRUMP APPOINTED CHRISTIAN FASCIST JUDGE IN TEXAS COULD MAKE MIFEPRISTONE, one of the two medications used in medicated abortions, illegal. Walgreens Drugstores in a cowardly act of collaboration, has already pulled the medication from it's store in states controlled by Republican Fascists!

Think too of all the stories we haven’t heard: From those who desperately struggle to scrape up enough money to take time off from work, find childcare, and travel to states where a backlog of patients means they still might not get the abortion they so desperately need. From those tens of thousands who have already been forced to have children against their will. From those whose unwanted pregnancies trap them in abusive relationships or drag them further into poverty. This is a discriminatory dystopian misogynist reality that must never be minimized, tolerated, or accommodated to.

The attack on abortion rights is part of a patriarchal Christian fascist program that takes aim at contraception as well as LGBTQ rights. Denying the right to abortion hits poor women, and especially Black and other women of color, with vicious consequence – tightening the chains of both white supremacy and the subjugation of women. This is only the beginning: This fascist-dominated Supreme Court has opened the floodgates for states to pass more and more draconian laws to enslave and punish girls and women who dare to step outside their prescribed roles as mothers and breeders of children.

The idea that we have to fight for women’s civil rights state-by-state only normalizes the concept of women’s fundamental rights being based on local public opinion. Would you accept the right to free speech, or the right to vote, or the right to worship in only half the country? We demand legal abortion on demand and without apology everywhere!

The Right to Legal Safe Abortion Is the Front Line and the Bottom Line of Women’s Freedom.

As long as one woman or girl is not free, NONE OF US ARE FREE.

Our only way forward and our best way forward is to resist, to rise up.

We urge everyone who cares about women and girls and justice overall to reach out to us to strategize and work together. There is a great struggle to be waged. Together, in our millions, we can and must ACT to win back the fundamental right to legal safe abortion.
