Dear MoveOn member,
[ [link removed] ]Breaking: MoveOn just launched a brand-new Our Bodies, Our Vote website
for the election! Abortion is one of the most crucial issues this
election—since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022, abortion has been
banned or restricted in 22 states across the nation.^1
Millions of people have lost access to abortion, and the GOP is doing
everything in its power to control our bodies.^2 Enough is enough.
Voters are fired up and angry at these baseless attacks on our bodily
autonomy. That's why MoveOn launched [ [link removed] ]Our Bodies, Our Vote, so people
who care about protecting and expanding our reproductive freedoms know
when to vote and how to get involved in this election!
[ [link removed] ]Check out the new Our Bodies, Our Vote website now and share it with
your friends and family!

MoveOn’s election program kicked off with abortion house parties where
members came together to contact voters about the importance of voting for
Democrats in this election. Since then, we've launched our new [ [link removed] ]national
abortion ad. This has the power to persuade people on the fence to turn
out to vote in November to protect our rights. As we get closer to
Election Day, we will be hosting [ [link removed] ]special phone banks to contact key
voters in states with abortion amendments on their ballot.
Voters in Florida, Arizona, Nevada, and other states have the chance to
make abortion a constitutional right in their state.^3 That's huge.
Florida and Arizona both have incredibly restrictive abortion bans—leaving
millions in their state without access to the health care that they need
and deserve. The new website will help spread the word about these
incredibly important amendments and make sure members can get involved.
[ [link removed] ]Every person deserves the right to decide if, when, and how to start a
family. Voters need to cast their vote by November 5 and tell the GOP to
"mind their damn business!" and put an end to abortion bans.
Donald Trump nominated three Supreme Court justices during his term and
claims responsibility for overturning Roe v. Wade. And yet he continues to
be unclear on his abortion stance.^4 During this week's debate, Donald
Trump refused to acknowledge if he would veto a national abortion ban or
not.^5 Then he disturbingly spread lies about abortion and made reckless,
conspiratorial comments about killing born babies that were debunked in
real time by the moderator.^6^ He also recently went on the record
recently to say that he would not vote to overturn Florida’s six-week
ban.^7
We know the truth: If reelected, Donald Trump would ban abortion
nationwide and empower Republicans to continue attacking our bodily
autonomy.
Kamala Harris would fight to protect and expand our reproductive rights.
And if given the opportunity, she would sign a law into place to restore
Roe v. Wade in our nation.^8 It's crucial that voters know what's at stake
in this election—it's not only the presidency, it's the future of our
rights and freedoms.
[ [link removed] ]Check out and share MoveOn's abortion election website now and stay
tuned for more ways to get involved in the fight for our reproductive
freedoms!
Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn? The MAGA right is declaring war, and Project 2025
is their battle plan. Project 2025 threatens our rights, attacks
communities of color, hurts middle- and working-class families, and
undermines our democracy. But we will not back down or let Trump steamroll
our nation.
Will you start a monthly donation to power and sustain MoveOn's election
plan, stop Trump, and ensure Project 2025 is never enacted?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month.
[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
