The majority of Supreme Court justices may be in favor of overturning Roe v. Wade, which would allow states to pass more restrictions on abortion, including total bans.

This would disproportionately harm low-wealth people, Black women, trans people, and other communities who are already facing systemic racism and oppression in our healthcare system, and already hit hardest by restrictions on abortion rights.

Not everyone can take time off of work or afford out-of-state travel for an abortion, especially given the growing racial wealth gap. And due to structural racism, Black women are 2 to 6 times more likely than white women to die from pregnancy and giving birth, so their lives would be particularly endangered.

Even with Roe v. Wade in place, the legality of abortions has not guaranteed access to abortions. We need not only affordable and accessible abortion in our communities, but a fuller set of rights as laid out by the reproductive justice movement, started and led by Black women.

Please sign our petition if you agree:

• We need expanded abortion rights and access, not any more limitations or even the status quo. It’s not just about “keeping abortion legal” because even with Roe v. Wade in place, abortions are already inaccessible or hard to access for communities who face oppression such as Black women and trans people.

• We must ensure that anyone who needs or wants an abortion can get one. More broadly, we need to ensure that everyone in our country can actually access quality healthcare, including reproductive care. As part of this, we’ve got to address structural racism and other barriers to access.

• Our government must provide more support to parents and children, particularly people in poverty. The U.S. House passed the Build Back Better Act, which includes policies like parental leave, expanded childcare and pre-k, and continuing the newly expanded Child Tax Credit to financially support low-wealth families. Now we need the Senate to act.

• We need to abolish the filibuster to expand the Supreme Court and enable the passage of more House-passed policies, including a bill to ensure nationwide standards protecting abortion rights and a bill to end the discriminatory Hyde Amendment, which denies abortion coverage to people already more likely to be underserved by our health system and struggling to make ends meet.

Can you add your name now to declare that you will fight back against threats to abortion rights, and fight for reproductive justice?
