Friend, this isn't a happy anniversary. But we have to mark the grim upcoming milestone of one year since the Supreme Court eliminated abortion rights.
In the last year, we've seen an inspiring wave of support for abortion rights on the ground and at the polls. But MAGA Republicans aren't relenting from their sick crusade to ban abortion nationwide.
Chuck is right -- we need to keep up the grassroots fight to defend abortion rights until the right to choose is protected and restored for everyone. If you're still with us, sign your name today:

Friend,
Nearly a year ago, the Supreme Court handed down one of its worst decisions: Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. In one fell swoop, far-right justices ripped away the long-established right to abortion and overturned Roe v. Wade.
And make no mistake: MAGA Republicans aren't done yet. In the past year, state legislatures pushed through abortion bans in 14 states. And some Republicans in the Senate even want to pass a national abortion ban.
MAGA Republicans' ultimate goal is to ban abortion for everyone, everywhere -- but our Democratic Senate Majority is standing strong against any and all heinous bills they try to force into law. We need all concerned Americans to stand with us: Sign your name today to protect and restore abortion rights.
Let me put it differently: Since the Dobbs decision, one in three Americans have lost abortion access.
This is outrageous. It is unacceptable. And it is why I will do everything in my power as the leader of the U.S. Senate to stop MAGA Republicans' anti-abortion crusade and restore abortion rights nationwide.
I can't do it alone. Senate Democrats are more united than ever behind abortion rights, but we need the power of this grassroots movement, too. Sign your name ahead of the anniversary of the Dobbs decision and demand abortion rights be protected and restored for all:
Onward,
Chuck Schumer
