This is extremely alarming, John. Our reproductive freedom is under full-blown assault right now — we’re witnessing an unprecedented number of attacks to dismantle Roe v. Wade.
Here’s how it started: During the Trump administration, Mitch McConnell and Trump worked together to confirm three conservative Justices to the Supreme Court and appoint hundreds of anti-abortion judges on the federal and circuit courts.
Their anti-abortion movement continues to grow: Last week alone, the governors of SEVEN states signed laws that restrict or defy abortion rights under Roe v. Wade.
Then this week, the Supreme Court announced that they’re hearing an abortion case concerning a controversial Mississippi law that bans most abortions after just 15 weeks. This court case threatens the future validity of Roe v. Wade and the reproductive rights we’ve fought hard to protect. On top of all of this, today the Governor of Texas announced that they’re banning abortions as early as six weeks, before many women know they are pregnant.
That’s why we’re calling on the Biden-Harris administration to take necessary action and codify Roe v. Wade into federal law. Will you add your name to tell the Biden-Harris administration that they must immediately put an end to this constant assault against reproductive freedom and ensure our rights under law?
Since day one, Republicans have not stopped trying to undermine reproductive rights and overturn Roe v. Wade.
But when Trump was in office, he and Mitch McConnell focused on shaping a lasting, effective strategy to reshape the federal judiciary and Supreme Court so they can attempt to dismantle abortion rights at every level of the courts.
It’s why we organized en masse to drive Trump out of office and block his Supreme Court nominations for Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Barrett Coney. Thousands of us showed up in front of the Supreme Court to protest their confirmation. We succeeded in electing a new administration — but now we need to make sure Joe Biden lives up to his promise to protect the rights ensured to us by Roe v. Wade.
That’s why we’re asking Women’s Marchers from across the country to sign our petition and represent support from their community to codify Roe v. Wade into law. Will you represent xxxxxx and add your name to tell the Biden-Harris administration they need to protect Roe v. Wade now?
Together,
Women’s March
P.S. Women's Marchers fought to elect Joe Biden because he vowed to be a pro-choice president — and now, it's time for him to make good on his word by taking every action possible to codify the reproductive freedoms protected under Roe v. Wade into law. Please represent xxxxxx by adding your name to tell the Biden-Harris administration they need to protect Roe v. Wade right now.
