John, The NAF has released its annual report on the rise of crime and violence against reproductive healthcare centers. Since 1977, "The National Abortion Federation has been compiling statistics on incidents of violence and disruption." Some alarming stats from that report:
- Stalking increased by 913% (from 8 in 2021 to 81 in 2022)
- Obstructions increased 538% (from 45 in 2021 to 287 in 2022)
- Bomb threats increased by 133% (from 3 in 2021 to 7 in 2022)
- Burglaries increase by 100% (from 5 in 2021 to 10 in 2022)
- Assault and batteries increased by 29% (from 7 in 2021 to 9 in 2022)
Meanwhile, the GOP is committed to rolling back women's rights, their healthcare decisions, and access to abortion procedures. Let's be clear: A national ban is their goal.
This is what the GOP and their "pro-life" crusade looks like: No exceptions for rape or incest. Women are waiting until they go into sepsis to receive care. Doctors are afraid of offering treatment. Children are being forced to carry a pregnancy to term.
There is nothing "pro-life" about the rhetoric that leads to these attacks. We have to push back and keep our nation from slipping further into the wrong side of history. Chip in now and help us elect leaders that will protect freedom and choice, and defend the women of this nation.
John, your support is vital. Thank you so much! - No Dem Left Behind  |
