Hi John,

The success of ballot initiatives and elections from Ohio to Virginia this month has shown us once again that abortion is a winning issue and that when it is put to a vote, abortion will always win! Despite the efforts of our lawmakers and judicial system, it is clear that the majority of people in this country support access to safe and legal abortion. Our fight to protect abortion pills must continue this month and every month to ensure access to abortion for all people, without discrimination. Read more about the movement to get abortion pills in pharmacies here.

Why do we love self-managed abortion with pills?

  1. “Self-managed abortion is essential because we cannot truly obtain bodily autonomy or control over our reproductive choices without having SMA as an option.” — Aisling, 28, DC
  2. “Because everyone deserves the right to bodily autonomy — on their own terms.” — Jillian, 27, DC
  3. “It allows for the privacy and intimacy that every individual making decisions for their bodily autonomy deserve.” — Farah, 33, DC

And remember:

A tan background shows two abortion pills, mifepristone and misoprostol. Above the pills it reads “Giving Thanks” and below them it reads “to self-managed abortion”. The Reproaction logo is below this in orange.

See you next month!

In Solidarity,

Laila Salaam
