[1]Women's March
Six months, John.
That is how long Texas’ S.B. 8 — the most extreme abortion ban in the
country — has been in effect, with no relief for people who need to access
an abortion or for the health care providers who desperately want to help
their patients.
We have seen the devastating impact of this unconstitutional abortion ban
on not only Texans, but surrounding states who are taking on more and more
out-of-state patients and pushing their local community members to seek
care elsewhere.

are coming true.
Clinics in neighboring states have reported they are struggling to
accommodate the surge in demand from Texas patients and, with Roe v. Wade
hanging in the balance, we may see even more clinic closures. This would
be devastating for abortion access across the country – in red states, and
blue.

To make matters worse, we are seeing copycat legislation introduced in
other hostile, GOP-led, states with extremist politicians who are
determined to strip away our constitutional rights.
Just this week, the Florida legislature approved the strictest abortion
ban in the state’s history. This bill provides no exceptions for victims
of rape, incest or human trafficking.
Let’s be clear: Abortion is health care. It should be safe, legal, and
accessible for all. Restrictive laws like S.B. 8 are especially dangerous
for low-income folks, Black women, LGBTQ individuals, and working families
— many of whom are struggling and living paycheck to paycheck.

power our organizing efforts so that we can continue pushing for abortion
access across the country.

There is much uncertainty ahead, but our women-led movement is stronger
than ever, and we have the numbers to fight back.
Together,
Women’s March
