Team,
As you know, Texas is in crisis as the Republican abortion bill has gone into effect, undermining 50 years of precedent under Roe v. Wade.
This bill is as bad as it gets. It essentially bans abortion in the state.
Greg Abbott says we shouldn’t worry because a person still has six weeks to get an abortion. But that’s a lie. It only gives six weeks since someone’s last menstrual cycle, which only gives one or two weeks at most — before many will even realize they’re pregnant.
Whether it's his attacks on voting rights, his inability to keep our children healthy and safe, his bill to allow permitless open-carry of firearms, or this latest assault on abortion rights, Greg Abbott has sold his soul to the extreme right-wing base.
Instead of keeping Texans healthy and standing up for the rights of his constituents, he has sold them out to win a Republican primary. It's cynical. It's cowardly. It's dangerous. And it's time for him to go.
With abortion rights under assault in Texas, please also consider pitching in to help Texans get the care they need. Support frontline organizations fighting for reproductive rights and abortion care.
Thank you for helping fight back,
Sawyer Hackett
