***********************
Anti-abortion politicians are working overtime to eradicate access to
reproductive health care by imposing medically unnecessary restrictions
that shutter clinics, delay and obstruct people’s access to reproductive
health care, lower the quality of care, and are meant to shame those
seeking abortion care.

Access to abortion is a right supported by decades of legal guarantees.
Yet, every day, our rights are being insulted and chipped away by harmful
restrictions, creating gross inequities in who can access health care,
depending on their zip code.

[ [link removed] ]Urge Congress to act and protect access to safe and legal reproductive
healthcare!>>

In 2019 so far, seven states - Alabama, Louisiana, Missouri, Ohio,
Georgia, Mississippi, and Kentucky - have all passed forms of abortion
bans. These attacks create a patchwork of access to abortion care and push
care out of reach for populations that are already treated as
marginalized: those living in poverty, people of color, LGBTQ+ people,
those who live in rural areas, and young people.

Pushing back against these crushing regulations requires a strong response
to combat anti-abortion extremists. That is why we need you to raise your
voice and take urgent action today!

Congress has introduced the Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA) --
legislation that will create a federal safeguard to protect those seeking
abortion from outright bans, obstacles, and medically unnecessary
restrictions. WHPA takes crucial steps toward protecting access to
essential reproductive health care, self-determination, and the
constitutional rights of all people, no matter where they live.

to protect reproductive health care access>>

Together, we can fight to restore our rights. A changed Supreme Court and
relentless, escalating attacks by anti-abortion politicians means
safeguarding access to abortion is essential, now more than ever.

Thank you,

-- Zach, PFAW
