Hello John-

Reproductive Rights are under attack like never before. Republican held legislatures are pushing legislation in order for Roe v Wade to be reconsidered in front of the Supreme Court, undoing decades of precedence for reproductive rights. The conservative-packed Supreme Court is hearing arguments on the new Mississippi Abortion Law, which was put forth in an attempt to do just that. That's why we need you to help us protect those rights: 

Abortion is health care. Reproductive Rights are and always will be fundamental rights. Overturning Roe not only threatens the right to choose, but also the right to use contraception, access to reproductive health, and the right to a life of one's choosing. Overturning the precedent of Roe v Wade is a threat to all of us and the right to one's bodily autonomy. The Supreme Court has affirmed these rights for over 50 years and we cannot afford to go back now.

A person should not be forced to carry out a pregnancy if their own health is at stake. A person should not be able forced to carry out in a pregnancy in the case of rape or incest. A person should not be forced to carry out a pregnancy without their consent. Period.

Rooms full of people who do not have uteruses should not be the ones determining what happens to the bodies of those who do. And now it is up to everyone to show that we support one's right to bodily autonomy. More legislation like this from Mississippi, Texas, and other GOP held states will continue to come up and attack reproductive rights.

Sign our petition now to protect Roe v Wade and stop the assault on the right to choose.
