This is alarming -
|
|
For 50 years, Roe v. Wade has protected a woman’s constitutional right to an abortion. But last night, POLITICO reported that the Supreme Court is planning to overturn Roe.
|
|
Today, I think about my grandmother, who grew up before women had the right to vote. I think about my mother, who served on the board of her local Planned Parenthood and watched from the frontlines as Roe v. Wade became law.
|
|
I think about the generations of women who came before me to secure these fundamental rights, and the generations that will come after. And while this news is devastating, I know one thing is for sure: We cannot go backward.
|
|
The time to act is now. We must codify Roe v. Wade and protect the right to an abortion.
|
|
Now more than ever, we need to codify Roe v. Wade into law. If you agree, add your name in support of this vital legislation.

|
Thank you for your support, and for being in this fight.
|
|
With every good wish,
