Access to abortion care matters.

Every day, people across the country are feeling the harms that abortion bans impose on women and families. We hear stories like Amber Thurman, a 28-year-old mother in Georgia who died because she couldn't access life-saving abortion care in her home state.

Amber encountered a rare complication that her local hospital was more than capable of handling. But because Georgia enacted a new anti-abortion law in the summer of 2022, the procedure she needed, known as a D&C, is considered a felony with very few exceptions to the law. This meant doctors who performed the procedure could be prosecuted and imprisoned for up to 10 years.

Amber died as a direct result of far-right, anti-choice laws . But she isn't the only person who has been harmed by these extremist laws, and she won't be the last.

One Country Project is fighting to grow our grassroot movement and stand up to extremist, anti-abortion laws like those in Georgia.

We are just days away from the last end-of-quarter before Election Day. Can you chip in $11 today to help move the reproductive rights movement forward in critical rural states? [[link removed]]

In rural states across the country, people are facing impossible choices : Doctors are deciding whether to pack up and leave for places that won't threaten them with jail time, and women are figuring out the logistics to seek abortion care out-of-state rather than risk dire consequences where they live.

Rural communities are bearing the brunt of these extremist laws.

When doctors and clinics stop operating in rural areas, what little medical resources are left are stretched to their breaking point. Making cases like Amber Thurman's even worse, because not only are many rural women living in states with strict abortion bans, but the medical professionals that can save their lives are moving further and further away.

We need national protections to defend abortion rights from the far-right, extremists. Which is why we are working to build crucial support for a pro-choice coalition in rural communities, because that's how we can best defend our reproductive rights.

Will you help us fight for reproductive freedom in rural America by donating $11 today? September 30th is our last deadline before the election and every donation helps us reach out to voters who are ready to fight for reproductive rights. [[link removed]]
