John,
Last night, the Senate held an opening vote on the Women’s Health Protection Act — a historic bill which would protect access to abortion even if the Supreme Court overrules Roe v. Wade. It was swiftly blocked by the GOP.
As long as the Senate allows the filibuster to exist — the urgent policies women and families need to protect our reproductive freedom will never be passed.
If Senate Democrats want to show us they stand with women, they won’t allow the filibuster to waste our only shot at enshrining the right to abortion into federal law. Instead, they’d kill the filibuster so that we can pass the Women’s Health Protection Act and so many other bills we’ve already passed in the House that would grant immediate and much-needed relief for working families and women in our country.
Our democracy cannot be allowed to remain in the hands of Mitch McConnell and his years-long legacy of obstruction — and now we're coming to you because we urgently need your help to turn up the pressure. Please rush an emergency $5 donation to Women's March to support our advocacy work to abolish the filibuster, end McConnell's stranglehold on the Senate, and fight tirelessly for our feminist priorities.
We’re not going to beat around the bush, John.
Women’s Marchers all across the country organized tirelessly to help win the White House AND both chambers of Congress — and together, we did it.
We refuse to let our hard work go to waste because the GOP and conservative Democrats like Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin refuse to abolish the filibuster — effectively blocking our chances of passing the Women’s Health Protection Act or any part of Biden’s agenda.
Now that Democrats control the White House, Senate, and the House, we have a rare and important opportunity to pass bold action on issues we care about, like abortion access, climate justice, racial justice, expanding voting rights, and more. But building our feminist future can't happen with the obstructionist filibuster in the way, so we must abolish it once and for all.
Will you make a donation right now to Women’s March to help power our organizing efforts to abolish the filibuster and protect abortion access from the wave of attacks we’re facing right now? We need to send a loud and clear message that Women’s Marchers are watching the Senate and we will not let our hard work be trampled by their political games.
Together,
Women’s March
