Dear John,

We are outraged.

Last night, in a truly unprecedented event, a draft decision on the Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court case was leaked to the public. If that opinion becomes final, it will strike down Roe v. Wade and set back fundamental rights in this country by half a century.

While the leak was unexpected, the decision itself is not. The GOP has been intent on eviscerating federal civil rights protections and regressing the country to an era of forced birth for decades – and they’ve been doing it by strategically building power at the state level.

If Roe is overturned, the battle over the future of reproductive freedom will go to the states – especially the 23 states where abortion will be effectively banned. That list includes three of our 2022 target states: Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

At Sister District, we are more resolved than ever to fight to protect access to abortion care and reproductive justice for all our communities. That’s why today, we are asking you to support our work and help us elect more pro-choice progressives at the state level.

Abortion will soon become inaccessible in nearly half the country, and communities of color, LGBTQ communities, low-income, and working class communities will be disproportionately affected. The only way to stop this attack on our bodies is state by state.

We are angry. We are resolute. And we know that we must stay focused. The right to an abortion will be determined by state legislators in all fifty states, and it has never been more urgent to elect pro-choice state legislators. Thank you for standing with us.

In solidarity,
The Sister District Team
