Team — by now, you’ve likely heard the news that an extremist, Trump-appointed judge in Texas ruled to invalidate FDA approval of mifepristone, a critical abortion medication used in most abortion care in the USA.
This ruling isn’t about safety — mifepristone is safe. It’s about controlling women’s bodies.
Josh is outraged at this blatantly political assault on reproductive freedom and he is ready to fight with everything he’s got to protect the right to abortion in North Carolina. Please, take a moment to read his message on the ruling below, then donate to help him defeat anti-abortion radicals in the NC GOP >>>
Thanks,
Team Stein

Subject: regarding yesterday’s ruling on the abortion pill, mifepristone
One federal judge just tried to ban abortion for the entire country, team.
After weeks of waiting, a far-right, Trump-appointed judge in Texas has done exactly what we feared: He ordered the Food & Drug Administration to suspend approval for the abortion pill mifepristone, part of the most common form of abortion care in the USA.
Mifepristone is safe — safer than Tylenol and Viagra. It is effective — it’s been on the shelves for more than twenty years. It is still safe and effective now.
As Attorney General, I have fought to protect a woman’s fundamental right to choose. I’ll continue that fight as your next governor, in the face of a GOP-controlled legislature that has made banning abortion its clear objective.
Team, the stakes are clear: the right to abortion is on the line. I need your help more than ever to defeat the GOP and secure reproductive rights in NC and everywhere they’re threatened. Give what you can right now >>>
