Imagine a world where every person had true reproductive freedom.
Where young people had access to sex education, learned about their options for contraception, could easily get and afford those options, and could pose questions to a trusted adult without fear or shame.
Where everyone had easy access to the pill, condoms or an IUD and could easily afford it — because it's free.
Where Plan B was in every nurse's and doctor's office, every corner store and pharmacy, accessible to all, so if accidents did happen, pregnancy could still be prevented.
Where everyone could afford the health care they deserved.
Where every sexual encounter was a wanted one, an enjoyable one, a consensual one.
Where abortion was safe, legal and accessible to everyone — without shame or stigma — no matter where you live, what color your skin is, or how much money you have.
Where the only person making decisions about your body was you.
That is the future we are fighting for: one where every person can get the care they need to live the life they want.
But we don't live in that world today, unfortunately. In our world right now, politicians are attacking and chipping away at sexual and reproductive health care across the country.
In our world, the politicians who threaten to take away your access to abortion are the very same ones trying to take away the things that would help prevent unwanted pregnancies: like affordable health care, sex education, and birth control.
In our world, the Supreme Court is about to hear a case that could gut abortion access across the country, making the protections of
Roe v. Wade virtually meaningless.
And that case is going to be argued in front of the Supreme Court less than one week from today. March 4th is the date — please mark your calendar. We all need to pay attention, because when the Court issues its decision later this year, it will affect us. It will affect our children and grandchildren too. This is a fight for our freedom, and we need you to get involved right now.
