And you! And you! And me! Drink up those anti-abortion tears, y'all!
Hi john,
We have got to say: WE HAVE THE BEST DAMN FAM IN THE LAND! We asked for some help in fulfilling our Amazon wishlist as we gear up for Atlanta, and y’all absolutely tore through it, with only a few items left! Our gratitude for y’all’s support is nearly equal to our hatred for the plethora of anti-abortion assholes we’re about to annoy tf out of.
While you stay tuned for our shenanigans in Atlanta next week, Abortion Access Front will be having even MORE fun this week as the team is in Chicago for Netroots Nation! We’ll have a booth, your Feminist Buzzkills will be doing THREE shows and Lizz is doing an event with Jill Winebanks!
PLUS! We are capping off the week in Chicago doing a big EXPOSE FAKE CLINICS ACTION!
AAF will be down in the loop with our friends Reproductive Transparency Now and other pro-abortion comrades for a rally and march! In the Chicago area and want to join us? Sign up here!
O-H! I-O…H SNAP! We both can and can’t believe that not only did Ohio gather enough signatures to put an abortion rights amendment on their ballot, they almost DOUBLED the needed amount! Don’t ever let those stuffy anti-abortion bullshit artists tell you that people do not want or support abortion access; the proof is in the corn-fed, Skyline chili pudding. Eat that, ya dicks.
WHAT ARE OUR PRIORITIES AGAIN? Speaking of Ohio and terrible abortion bans, the defendant who pled guilty to raping a 10-year-old child in Ohio, with the child forced to travel to Indiana for abortion care because of OHio’s six-week ban, has pled guilty and been given life in prison with a possibility of parole after 25 years. We’re glad the family finally gets the resolution they deserve, but we can’t say we’re not flabbergasted that this happens over a year after the initial assault, yet everyone was tripping over their own feet to vilify and charge the abortion provider IN RECORD TIME?? Make it make sense.
JK- it doesn’t make sense and should only serve to enrage you. Well, enrage you and THEN galvanize you to action- check out our Activist Calendar and get involved!
PRO-FAITH, PRO-ABORTION
As we prepare to face off with several hundred religious anti-abortion extremists, we’re reminded once again that being a person of faith and pro-abortion are not mutually exclusive! Faith Choice Ohio will be equipping you to use abortion-positive language rooted in religious values to help lift up abortion as a moral good in their Moral Messaging Training on Tuesday, July 11th at 7 PM ET- registration link here!
CALLING ALL LEGAL EAGLES!
We are seeing abortion being fought in the courts more and more every day, and there’s no doubt in the need for more passionate attorneys to jump in the fight! Our friends at If/When/How, the ACLU Reproductive Freedom Project, and the National Women's Law Center are looking for legal interns and law students who want to learn more about what it means to be an RJ lawyer during their virtual Repro Justice Lawyering event on Thursday, July 13th at 2 PM ET- registration link here!
DON’T FORGET! We’ll be reporting from the gates of anti-abortion hell next week! Stay tuned to learn more about the harm anti-abortion zealots cause and how you can fight back! And never forget the most important lesson…
