The Supreme Court just made it harder for millions of Americans to access essential health care.
In a 6-3 decision, the Court ruled that states can block Medicaid funding from going to Planned Parenthood. This cuts off access to contraception, cancer screenings, and other critical services for low-income patients. This was never about quality of care. This was a political decision that will have devastating consequences for real people.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said it best: this ruling strips people of “a deeply personal freedom- the ability to decide who treats us at our most vulnerable.”
Here in Florida, we know what happens when politics invades our doctor’s offices. That’s why Ruth’s List Florida is on the front lines working every day to elect Democratic pro-choice women who will stand up for reproductive freedom and protect access to care.
John, if you’re angry like us and ready to do something about it, please consider making a contribution. Your donation of $25, $50, or $100 will help us recruit, train, and elect more women who will fight back.
This ruling is just the latest in a long line of attacks on the rights of women across this country. But we’re not backing down. We’re building power one election, one leader, one vote at a time.
With your support, we will change the future of Florida.
