John,
Thanks to you and every single person who showed up in the streets on Saturday, the world saw our power.
Hundreds of thousands of people hit the streets across our nation yesterday to Rally for Abortion Justice — and together, we made it clear that we won't tolerate any attacks on our reproductive freedom. That we're going to fight until we have abortion access for ALL.
Our coalition rallied in Freedom Plaza in D.C. and marched to the steps of the Supreme Court arm in arm with thousands of each other fighting for abortion rights.
From the east to the west, from the north to the south, we rallied in 650 locations in all 50 states. In every corner of this country, our demands were heard.
But here's the truth, John: The Rally For Abortion Justice wasn't just a one day thing.
As Women's March Executive Director Rachel Carmona said onstage at Saturday's rally, this Rally for Abortion Justice was Day One. It marked the first day of a fight that we're waging, in all 50 states, to make abortion legal, accessible, and free for everyone in America — especially the Black and Brown communities hit hardest by restrictions.
Our fight for abortion justice is only getting started, and now we have an important request for every single person who either joined in person at a rally, or who was there in spirit!
We need you to join our mass call on October 12 from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. ET to learn what's next for our movement. We will be strategizing, mobilizing, and discussing next steps on this call, so we are asking you to join us as we plan what's on the horizon for our fight for abortion access across every state and at the Supreme Court.
Saturday's Rally for Abortion Justice was never only about one day of action.
It was the first step in a renewed fight that we are ready to wage in all 50 states, all across the country. Until. We. Win.
It’s a fight we can win if we fight together.
In solidarity and gratitude,
Women's March
