Hey, John — it's Rachel, Executive Director at Women's March.
In a moment, I'm going to respectfully ask you to donate $3, or any amount that's meaningful to you, to help fully support our urgent Reproductive Justice Fund. But before I do that, I hope you'll hear me out about why your contribution to this fund before Monday's deadline is so important.
We launched our urgent Reproductive Justice Fund last week in response to a flood of Republican attacks on our reproductive freedoms. Not only are states like Texas and Mississippi passing aggressive legislation designed to outlaw abortions after just a few weeks of pregnancy — the Supreme Court also agreed to take up an abortion case that has the potential to overturn Roe v. Wade.
To be perfectly clear, John, the threats we've witnessed from the Supreme Court and from states across the country this past week are some of the most dire we've seen in years. And we all urgently need to fight back. That's why we're asking you to help Women's March fully-fund our urgent Reproductive Justice Fund so we can organize and fight back against these attacks against reproductive freedom on the local AND national levels.
When Women's Marchers took to the streets by the thousands to protest the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, it was because we knew this day would come. Republican-held state legislators have threatened for years to outlaw abortion in any way they can — and now they're closer than they've ever been thanks to the Supreme Court that Trump and McConnell stole.
Here are just a few of the outlandish, anti-woman pieces of legislation that have been popping up in states across the country — legislation that we at Women's March must be prepared to fight:
It's never been a more important time to fight back, John. And all of Women's March's organizing work is funded by grassroots donations — people like you reading emails like this one and donating $50, $15, or even just $3 at a time. With more on the line for women and reproductive rights than ever, we need as much support from this team as possible before Monday night's end-of-month deadline.
We must keep pushing forward.
Together,
Rachel Carmona
Executive Director
Women's March
P.S. If the past few weeks have shown us anything, it's this: We cannot slow down our work simply because Trump no longer occupies the Oval Office. This month has been among the worst for reproductive rights in recent history, so please make a donation of whatever you can to help this Women's March team fight back against these attacks on our rights and freedoms.
