After working to overthrow Roe v. Wade, the GOP movement to further deny healthcare to millions continues. A recent ruling by a federal judge in Texas to prohibit the FDA-approved abortion medication mifepristone is just another in a long line of attacks by the GOP on our most basic freedoms.
The GOP is throwing everything in its arsenal – state legislatures, attorneys general, the courts, and more – to destroy reproductive rights. We’ve seen it right here in Ohio, where Attorney General Yost led a national movement to prevent mifepristone’s distribution in ours and other conservative states.
In the face of this continued assault, the only way to secure our rights is to pass the Women’s Health Protection Act.
As a Cuyahoga County Council member and Chairwoman of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, Shontel Brown has spent the last decade serving the people of Ohio and building coalitions. Now, as the Congresswoman for Ohio’s 11th District, she will fight for affordable quality health care, jobs that pay fair wages, a strong public education system, and equity and justice for all. Will you join her and be the change we need?
