Dear John,

Yesterday, for #GivingTuesday, generous supporters from across the country helped prove that even in the most challenging of times we can still come together to protect reproductive health care.

I know there are a lot of demands for your time and generosity right now. You can still make a gift to support physician advocates at any time. No amount is too small to make an impact in the pivotal year ahead.

With an incoming administration willing to listen to science and evidence, we have new opportunities for progress. But in order to make the changes we seek a reality, we need your help mobilizing the full force of our physician advocates who are trained, organized, and committed to defending our rights.

With your support, we will:

• Mobilize 20 new physician advocates. Our latest class of change makers just completed their first intensive policy and communication session, with many webinars and virtual trainings prepared for 2021.
• Remove obstacles to abortion care. We’re calling on Congress to repeal the Hyde Amendment to lift bans on insurance coverage for abortion, and to eliminate barriers to accessing medication abortion. Congress must also pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to create federal protections against discriminatory, state-level abortion restrictions.
• Secure COVID relief for our communities. We need the Senate to take urgent action addressing the widespread suffering across our nation, especially in communities of color which have been disproportionately impacted. People need unemployment assistance, help putting food on the table, eviction relief, and much more.

This work won’t be easy, but I believe deeply in our partnership and I’m honored to do it alongside you. Together, we will build a world where no matter the reason, people can safely and affordably access the care they need.

With gratitude and hopefulness,

Jamila Perritt, MD MPH FACOG
