Elizabeth Warren: "Push your senators. Push your representatives... make
Roe the law of the land everywhere."
[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition to Congress: I support Congress protecting Roe vs.
Wade by making it federal law everywhere.
[ [link removed] ]MSNBC TWEET: Sen. Warren on the Texas abortion law: 'This is why
Congress should step up. Let's remember that 70% of Americans want to see
Roe v. Wade as the law of the land. The Supreme Court is not the only one
who could provide that. Congress could pass Roe v. Wade.'
SLATE: "At midnight on Wednesday, in an unsigned 5-4 decision, the Supreme
Court effectively overturned Roe v. Wade. The five most conservative
Republican-appointed justices refused to block Texas’ abortion ban, which
allows anyone to sue any individual who 'aids or abets' an abortion after
six weeks, which is when the vast majority of operations occur."
More states will follow suit. Here's what you can do.
First, Elizabeth Warren and others are pushing for Congress to urgently
use its power to make Roe vs. Wade the law of the land everywhere. Support
this effort.
[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition: I support Congress protecting Roe vs. Wade by making
it federal law everywhere -- and I support eliminating the filibuster so
Democrats can get this done.
Then, because the law specifically targets abortion funds, providers, and
advocates, [ [link removed] ]donate to these local groups on the ground in Texas that
help people pay for and access abortion care.
On the eve of this decision, Elizabeth Warren told MSNBC's Joy Reid:
"Let's remember that 70% of Americans want to see Roe vs. Wade as the law
of the land.
"The Supreme Court is not the only one who could provide that. Congress
could pass Roe vs. Wade.
"Everybody out there who is outraged today, help Planned Parenthood. Help
those who are trying to help people who are dealing with a difficult
decision.
"But also, push your senators, push your representatives and say 'it is
time that our elected representatives don’t put in judges that are
extremists, who don’t support what most Americans want, you get out there,
pass the laws, and protect Roe. Make Roe the law of the land everywhere.'"
If you're reeling from the Texas law and this conservative Supreme Court's
decision to let it stand, get off the sidelines. This is a fight where
every single person is going to make a difference.
[ [link removed] ]First, sign the petition telling Congress to protect Roe vs. Wade by
making it federal law everywhere -- and to eliminate the filibuster to get
it done.
Then, [ [link removed] ]donate to courageous groups on the ground in Texas that help
Texans pay for abortion procedures and get logistical help such as a ride
to a clinic. They are specifically targeted by this law and more
vulnerable than ever.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
