The Comstock Act is essentially a 150+ year-old federal law meant to ban the distribution of medication and instruments used in abortion care.

Yes, it’s exactly as out-of-touch and sexist as it sounds, John. And yes, you’ve got to believe the GOP will use it to take away our rights, if we let them.

The GOP knows their plans for a national abortion ban are wildly unpopular, so they’re covering all their bases.

But make no mistake, because their goal remains the same:

Control women and their bodies, no matter what.

We need to raise the alarm about this, demand the Comstock Act be overturned, and defeat the GOP in November. Will you help do that by chipping in $25 toward our $25,000 July Fundraising Goal right now?

If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

The future of abortion access in our country will be decided by what we do between now and November, John.

So let’s get to work.
