Dear team,
One year ago today, Roe v. Wade fell.
50 years of precedent was overturned in one stroke when the U.S. Supreme Court took away the constitutional right to abortion. Their decision not only ignored decades of jurisprudence, it set off a cascade of devastating consequences for women and pregnant people in the United States.
It's felt like a year of moving backwards. But our forward fight is taking root. With your help, we are pushing back.
Our lawyers, human rights advocates, and policy experts will continue to fight abortion bans, create new protections, and tirelessly defend those who've been hurt until federal protection is established.
The majority of Americans believe abortion should be legal, and the Center for Reproductive Rights is fighting for a new future of reproductive freedom and autonomy in the U.S. And we need you with us. All gifts to support this forward fight will be matched 10X through tomorrow.
The Center will continue to fight forward. We'll use every possible legal and advocacy tool to mitigate harm, prevent further regression, and establish new legal protections for reproductive autonomy in the U.S.
The fall of Roe was not the end, but the beginning of our Forward Fight.
Thank you for being part of this fight,
Nancy Northup
President & CEO
