We need to talk about Texas, John.
Republicans in Texas are waging a full blown attack to control pregnant people’s bodies, dismantle our reproductive freedom, and undermine our most basic democratic rights.
Just look at the headlines from the past couple of weeks:
What’s even worse is that Texas is just one example of a dangerous pattern emerging across our country of state governments working to pass as many anti-abortion and voter suppression laws as possible.
We need all hands on deck to fight back. Will you make an urgent $3 donation right now to make sure Women’s March has the funds to organize on the local and national level to defend our reproductive freedom and voting rights?DONATE $3 →
We’ll be honest with you, John: What’s happening in Texas and many states across our country is terrifying.
It’s no coincidence that all of these attacks are raining down at the same time: State legislatures know that this is their chance to take their anti-women agenda to the next level now that there’s an ultra-conservative majority on the Supreme Court. It’s a harsh reminder that Trump may be gone — but his misogynistic and racist agenda is still alive and being carried out by his supporters.
But we’ve made it clear we’re not going down quietly: In the past couple of weeks, a powerful, women-led movement has risen up to fight back against these attacks.
Women, especially women of color, are leading efforts to put pressure on companies and their elected officials to stand against Texas Republicans orchestrating these efforts to strip away our rights. High school graduate Paxton Smith has gone viral for speaking out at her high school graduation about the importance of abortion rights and has inspired millions of other young women to rise up in this fight. And Women’s Marchers have been hard at work organizing to put pressure on our elected officials on the local and federal level to end this assault on our democracy and the rights enshrined to us from Roe v. Wade.
Please remember this: History has taught us that there’s nothing more powerful than women organizing together for our feminist values. We know it’s true because this is how we defeated Trump, flipped the Senate, and stopped other voter suppression bills in the past.
But our hard work isn’t over. We need to prepare and fight harder than ever to mobilize our volunteer and organizing teams against these attacks. So today we’re asking for your help: Can you join this powerful, women-led movement rising up across the country and chip in $3 to help fight back against this wave of anti-women legislation?
Keep fighting,
Women’s March
