Now, when Missourians for Constitutional Freedom first proposed this ballot initiative, they faced all kinds of obstacles. From disputes over the description of the ballot measure, to public pushback, to Republicans in the state trying to make it harder to amend the state’s constitution altogether.
This will be an uphill battle, but this movement is no stranger to winning righteous fights. When abortion also got on the ballot in Kansas, in Ohio, in Michigan, and in Florida, this community helped raise almost $200,000 to support the organizations working to secure abortion rights in those states — and now we need to come together again to support abortion rights in Missouri.
Right-wing judges don’t get the final say. The people do. On the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade tomorrow, please make a contribution of $28 or anything you can to support Missourians for Constitutional Freedom and ensure we can protect abortion rights in Missouri.
I’m going to keep fighting for Democrats to get a majority in the House, a majority in the Senate, and for Joe Biden to win the White House so we can pass national abortion protections and prevent Republicans from passing a national abortion ban. Along the way, we also need to keep supporting abortion initiatives in states across the country — if it makes a difference for just one patient, that would be enough.
Thanks for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
