Uncertainty is emotionally draining. I hear it all the time from patients, providers, and advocates. And I have to tell you, that really resonates.

Right now, anyone who cares about abortion access and the rights of pregnant people is caught in the grip of uncertainty. As the Supreme Court considers the 15-week Mississippi abortion ban, we are months away from a decision that could leave Roe v. Wade overturned or unraveled.

We don't know what the Supreme Court will decide. We don't even know when the ruling will come. But we know we have to act now to protect abortion access, no matter what.

I'm counting on your continued commitment and unshakeable support today. Time is running out to make your special year-end gift — and right now, all donations up to a total of $500,000 will be matched dollar for dollar.

While the threat to Roe is more serious now than it has ever been, the truth is that uncertainty and anxiety are a constant reality for far too many people.

We have a health care system steeped in racism, one that leaves Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities, rural communities, immigrants, and patients with low incomes blocked from accessing the quality care they deserve.

Your gift today will have double the impact in the fight for equity in our health care system.

We have a political system that rewards extremism, one where state lawmakers compete to see who can pass the most egregious abortion ban. And once again, it’s pregnant people who suffer as their fundamental rights get treated like a political plaything.

Your gift today will have double the impact to defeat the attacks on abortion access.

We have LGBTQ+ patients who see their rights under attack — and their access to supportive care under constant threat. We have politicians in Congress itching to take state-level restrictions on reproductive rights to the national level. We have unprecedented and escalating dangers.

And then — we have you, and a national movement of people like you coming together in a spirit of solidarity. Your gift today will be added to theirs and doubled to advance policies that protect sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Doubt, uncertainty, anxiety, even fear — these are a part of what it means to fight for what we believe in. But every time we affirm our beliefs, the uncertainty shrinks. Every time someone like you speaks out, we gain a little strength. I hope you’ll chip in today, and feel that sense of renewal.

Thank you for everything you do to support the entire Planned Parenthood community.

Sincerely,

P.S. We need your generosity more than ever — the future of our reproductive freedom depends on it. But if you aren't in a place to give this year or already made your year-end gift, we understand that. If you'd like to receive fewer messages from us for the rest of the year, you can submit a request here.
