John, one year ago today, Politico published a draft of the Supreme Court decision that would overturn Roe v. Wade.
|
Since the Dobbs decision came down, states have passed dozens of increasingly extreme laws to ban abortions with no exceptions. In Texas, they've made it a first-degree felony. In Idaho, they've banned interstate travel to seek abortion care.
In the Senate, right-wing extremists have previously introduced a national ban. And now, there's a far-right campaign to ban access to the most commonly used abortion pill nationwide.
|
I can still remember the anger and fear that filled the days following the leak. We knew that this ruling would trigger a wave of increasingly extreme laws restricting our reproductive freedoms. But what we didn't know was how Americans like you would rise to this moment.
|
You got off the sidelines. You spoke out. You chipped in. You signed petitions. You organized. And on November 8, 2022, you defended our Senate majority, driving off a red wave and protecting reproductive rights up and down the ballot.
|
I know that we face tough challenges and a long road to victory. But as long as people like you refuse to ever give up, we will win this fight. That's why I'm asking 50,000 Democrats to add their names before midnight tonight to support reproductive rights. Please, John, will you add your name now? I'm counting on people like you to recommit to this fight as we head into another tough election cycle.

With gratitude and hope for the future,
