Team,

Last week, members of the U.S. Congress started heading back to their
home states for their summer work period. During this time, Senators
and Representatives will be connecting with constituents to hear what
their priorities are right now.

We have an opportunity to send a clear message that we need our
representatives in Congress to pass the Women's Health
Protection Act (WHPA) now.

SPEAK OUT NOW

This game-changing piece of federal legislation would protect the
right to access abortion care nationwide by safeguarding against bans
and medically unnecessary restrictions.

Over the past decade, anti-abortion politicians in states across the
country have passed an onslaught of restrictions on abortion care.
These restrictions-including mandatory delays, biased
counseling, medically unnecessary procedures, and previability bans
(like Mississippi's 15-week ban at issue in our current U.S. Supreme
Court case)-have decimated access to abortion care in large
swaths of the United States.

And it's clear we cannot rely solely on the courts to fight back
against this coordinated attack on our reproductive rights. Just last
week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit upheld a
Tennessee law that requires patients to make two trips to a provider
and wait at least two days to access abortion services after receiving
in-person, state-mandated biased counseling. This demeaning
restriction does nothing but make abortion harder for patients to
access, especially the many Tennesseans who already face barriers to
health care.

Equal access to abortion care-everywhere-is essential for
social and economic equality, reproductive autonomy, and the right to
determine our own lives. When passed, WHPA will protect the right to
access abortion care in states across the country.

Our rights can't wait, and we can't let this opportunity pass us
by. So we're asking you to speak out now and join us in calling on
Congress to stand up for reproductive rights!

Together, we will protect reproductive rights for all.
