Hey fam –here’s the tea:
We are coming up on the anniversary of Dobbs , the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) decision that overturned Roe v. Wade , returned the power to regulate abortion to individual states and basically showed the world that SCOTUS is high key trying to control our bodies and our lives.
74-year-old Justice Samuel Alito even tried to double down by calling abortion care ‘settled law’–that’s right, he thinks he can make a decision that affects OUR bodies and OUR lives and gaslight us into thinking we can’t fight back. Big yikes, Sam.
repro justice is NOW 🍒 [[link removed]]
Let’s be clear: there is no chance abortion care will be ‘settled’ until each of us can access abortion care without government interference.
It's been nearly two years since the Dobbs decision, and since then we’ve seen a surge of attacks on Reproductive Justice as a whole and we have been fighting back.
Now we are facing two new SCOTUS decisions, on Mifepristone and EMATLA, that pose further threats to our bodies and our lives. T he FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine decision could revoke the approval of Mifepristone, an abortion medicine that has been safely used for over 20 years (no cap it's safer than Tylenol).
And the Idaho v. United States and Moyle v. United States cases could allow doctors to deny emergency abortion care to pregnant people. Both of these decisions would disproportionately affect young BIPOC, and while the decisions haven’t been made, we know SCOTUS’s recent track record is pretty sus–we can’t just expect them to do the right thing.
That’s why URGE is building a bigger, stronger movement to show them that young people power is resilient.

We know that 90% of 18-30 year old voters [[link removed]] do not want to see the right to abortion threatened, and so no matter how ‘settled’ SCOTUS and anti-abortion extremists think things are, we are ready to show them how much they’ve underestimated us.
