Team,

As a Center supporter, I know you're keenly aware that we're in the
midst of an abortion access crisis in the United States. This crisis
is the culmination of decades of attacks launched by anti-abortion
opponents in an attempt to restrict reproductive rights and legislate
abortion out of reach.

Last year, anti-abortion politicians helped bring a direct challenge
to Roe v. Wade before the U.S. Supreme Court. On December 1, our
litigators argued before the Court in our case, Dobbs v. Jackson
Women's Health Organization, challenging a Mississippi law that bans
abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The case could gut the landmark
decision and lead to half the states in the U.S. taking action to ban
abortion.

Roe is the floor when it comes to protecting abortion access in the
United States, not the ceiling. We need federal legislative
protections. That's why we need the U.S. Senate to pass the Women's
Health Protection Act (WHPA) NOW.

Join us in demanding the U.S. Senate pass WHPA and ACT FOR ABORTION
ACCESS.

When passed, WHPA will protect access to abortion across the United
States, free from the medically unnecessary restrictions that
anti-abortion lawmakers rely on to push this essential care out of
reach. We cannot wait. We need our elected leaders to act NOW.

Here are three key reasons why we need WHPA NOW:

1. When abortion is accessible, individuals, families, and
communities thrive. Equal access to abortion
care-everywhere-is essential to social and economic
participation, reproductive autonomy, and the right to
determine the course of our own lives.

2. The right to abortion is not real if only some people can
access it. Hundreds of state-level laws restricting and banning
abortion have made this vital care extremely difficult to
access for people across the U.S.

3. The elimination of abortion restrictions is essential to the
pursuit of reproductive, economic, and racial justice. The
people most hurt by abortion restrictions are those who already
face systemic and discriminatory barriers to accessing health
care-including Black, Indigenous, and People of Color,
women, those having a hard time making ends meet, members of
the LGBTQI+ community, immigrants, young people, those living
in rural communities, and people with disabilities.

More than 500 anti-abortion laws have been pushed through state
legislatures in the last decade, and we know more are coming. It's
time for your representatives in Congress to put a stop to the
madness.

Tell your senators to take a stand for abortion access by passing
WHPA!

The stakes are too high to back down now.
