Team-

Today, we challenged an Oklahoma order effectively banning abortion
care in the state on behalf of Trust Women Oklahoma City and other
abortion providers in the state. Along with our partners at Planned
Parenthood Federation of America and Dechert LLP, we're challenging an
order issued by Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt on March 24 in response
to the COVID-19 pandemic that requires all "elective" medical and
surgical procedures be postponed. Just a few days later, the Governor
issued a statement singling out abortion care, claiming the order
prohibited almost ALL abortions in the state.











We will use every legal tool necessary to ensure that abortion
remains accessible during this pandemic. Please make an emergency gift
right now to help us fight back.

This shameful abuse of emergency powers to ban abortion care is
dangerous and unconstitutional.

To anti-abortion politicians, this pandemic is just another tool in
their toolbox to deny access to abortion-and we must stop them.











Can we count on you to help fight these unconscionable attacks?
Please make an urgent gift today to protect abortion access.

*** URGENT ***

Just now, we, along with our partners at Planned Parenthood
Federation of America and the Lawyering Project, sued Governor Greg
Abbott and other state officials on behalf of a group of Texas
abortion providers to ensure that patients can continue to access
essential, time-sensitive abortion services during the COVID-19
pandemic.

While doctors and nurses in Texas work around the clock to care for
patients suffering from COVID-19, Governor Abbott is interfering with
the personal medical decisions of Texans by using this pandemic to
advance his political, anti-abortion agenda.

We must put a stop to this. Please make an emergency gift to help us
protect abortion access in Texas and beyond.

It's unconscionable that Texas is exploiting this pandemic and abusing
the state's emergency powers to end abortion access in the state. We
filed suit today to stop it. Abortion care is essential and
time-sensitive health care that has a profound impact on a
person's health and life, which is why it is protected as a
constitutional right. Already, abortion providers in the state have
had to turn away dozens of patients seeking critical medical services.

We are prepared to take whatever legal action necessary to ensure
abortion remains accessible in the U.S. during this public health
crisis.









Will you make a generous gift RIGHT NOW to ensure we have the
resources to fight back against attacks like this one?
