John—
I have news I never wanted to share: As of today, Texas’ extreme ban on abortion (SB 8) is in effect. SB 8 bans abortion before many people even know they’re pregnant. It also sets up a horrifying system of vigilantism by offering a bounty to anyone who successfully sues someone for helping a pregnant person seeking abortion care after about 6 weeks in pregnancy.
Texas is facing its most dire threat to abortion access yet.
In this critical moment, rush an EMERGENCY gift to abortion funds on-the-ground in Texas who are working to help Texans who need access to abortion care.
With SB 8 in effect, it’s now nearly impossible for people to access abortion care in Texas. Texans seeking care will have to navigate a new range of financial and logistical barriers, including taking time off work to travel out of state, arranging for childcare, finding transportation — and more.
Texas needs support right now from people across the country who — like you — believe that everyone should have the freedom to make their own decisions and access abortion care without shame, unnecessary restrictions, or political interference.
Donate now to ensure Texas abortion funds have the financial support they need to help pregnant people access abortion care in the face of the most extreme ban in the country.
In solidarity with Texas,
