Hi there,

After last week’s maddening abortion case in Texas, plus the U.S. Supreme Court’s plans to hear a case that will likely place more restrictions on mifepristone – we wanted to let you know about one state with a possible light at the end of the tunnel.

Florida is one of the only remaining Southeastern states that currently allows abortion after six weeks. However, DeSantis signed legislation that would ban most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.

If this six-week ban goes into effect, women from states like Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas will have to travel even further for care. This will have a dangerous impact on abortion access nationwide. We understand that Florida has the potential to be a safe haven for these women – and we will fight for that to continue to be the case.

That’s why we have joined a bipartisan coalition in Florida in an effort to pass a constitutional amendment protecting access to abortion. Please help support Her Bold Move Florida so we can fight for abortion access by donating $12.50 or more now → [link removed]

In order to get the constitutional amendment on the ballot by November 2024, this coalition must submit 891,523 valid petition signatures to the state by February 1, 2024. That date is coming up fast! Once the measure is on the ballot, it will require support from at least 60% of voters to pass.

As we have seen time and time again since Roe was overturned: When abortion is on the ballot, voters show up to defend their rights. Just look at Virginia, where voters showed up to elect a pro-choice (and FEMALE) majority in their state Senate and House last month!

The cost to get each petition signed comes out to roughly $12.50. Organizers in Florida need our help to raise enough money to cover these costs, raise awareness, collect signatures, and get abortion rights on the ballot in 2024. If everyone chips in $12.50, we can help them get there.

Will you help fund Her Bold Move Florida so we can work to reinstate reproductive rights for millions of women by donating $12.50 or more now?

Hi there,

We wanted to share this important story:

Kate Cox, a Texas woman and mother of two children, was around 20 weeks pregnant when she learned the devastating news that her baby had Trisomy 18, a rare and likely fatal diagnosis. In order to protect her health and future fertility, she needed an abortion. Last Tuesday, according to Reuters, she bravely filed a lawsuit seeking a “temporary restraining order preventing Texas from enforcing its near-total ban on abortion in her case.”

Here’s the thing, according to Reuters, “Although her doctors believed abortion was medically necessary for her, they were unwilling to perform one without a court order in the face of potential penalties including life in prison and loss of their licenses.”

A district judge granted the request, but Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appealed that judge’s decision on the grounds that she “fell short” of proving she qualified for an exception. He then went on to warn that “Texas courts were not intended to be ‘revolving doors of permission slips to obtain abortions." (We couldn’t agree more.)

Why are so many men in our government making these decisions? How does one man (who is not a doctor) have the audacity to decide a woman “fell short” of proving anything about her body?

At Her Bold Move, we are working to get more women leaders into the rooms where decisions about OUR BODIES are being made. These abortion bans are infringing on the health and safety of REAL WOMEN. We must elect fiercely pro-choice women to office – women who will fight for abortion access in Texas and beyond. Will you help us replace these anti-choice men with pro-choice WOMEN in 2024 by rushing $20.24 today?

Due to her deteriorating condition, Kate left the state to obtain an abortion. We know there are many more women in her situation who do not have that option. As Nancy Northup, the chief executive of the Center for Reproductive Rights, stated, for them, this diagnosis could be a death sentence.

Meanwhile, this week, the Supreme Court agreed to hear anti-abortion extremists’ case to determine whether to impose restrictions on mifepristone – a lifesaving medication prescribed to end pregnancies that are less than 10 weeks along.

Make no mistake: This is about controlling women. This is exactly why we must elect fiercely pro-choice women to office who will fight for abortion access in Texas and beyond. Will you help us fight to elect pro-choice candidates in 2024 by rushing $20.24 today?
