John—
We’re not out of the woods yet. In the midst of a global pandemic, anti‑choice extremists remain laser‑focused on one thing: their dangerous agenda to ban abortion and roll back reproductive freedom.
Under the cover of darkness, Tennessee legislators just passed a sweeping set of anti-choice restrictions — including bans on abortion at almost every stage of pregnancy, a forced ultrasound mandate, and a provision criminalizing doctors who provide abortion care — all meant to chip away at and ultimately end the right to abortion care.
We've been facing attacks like this for years, but anti‑choice state legislators are now forcing bills like this through at an alarming speed. That makes our fight to protect reproductive freedom more urgent than ever before — and we need your help to fight back.
Right now your donation to NARAL Pro-Choice America will be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar, doubling your impact when it matters most. This match expires at midnight on June 30, so please show your support with a gift right now.
Let’s be crystal clear about something: This isn't just about Tennessee. This is about a coordinated attack on our rights taking place across the country. This is about anti-choice ideologues' long-term strategy to chip away at our reproductive freedom everywhere they can, in every way they can.
Anti-choice extremists are passing these bills with the explicit intention of getting a case in front of the anti-choice, anti-freedom majority on the Supreme Court — and they’re not even pretending to hide it.
Republican state Senator Mike Bell said the Tennessee legislation was specifically crafted to give the state “multiple shots” at ending Roe v. Wade.1 And an official for the governor’s office said that the bill was structured to allow them to “play both the long game and the short game” in their crusade to ban abortion in Tennessee.2 In fact, the bill is already being challenged in court to protect access to abortion care in the state.
It's on us to stop anti‑choice politicians and make it clear: When you come for our rights, we come for your seats. That means organizing people to fight back — making calls, showing up, tweeting, talking to family and friends, and voting — and donating to fuel the fight. All of it.
Help power the fight to stop abortion bans and other attacks on our reproductive freedom by making a special, matched gift of $15 to NARAL Pro-Choice America today.
