***********************

People For Supporter,

The fallout over last week's leaked Supreme Court draft decision
signalling an end to Roe v. Wade continues ... with more of our
fundamental rights potentially on the chopping block, and a looming Senate
vote tomorrow that is sadly not likely to overcome a filibuster from
far-right senators.

So today would be a great day for you to raise some hell with 13
well-known U.S. companies that, while they may talk a big game about
respecting the rights of their employees and consumers, have been funding
anti-abortion political committees for years.

[ [link removed] ]Please join the rapidly growing chorus of Americans speaking out to
hold these funders of extremism accountable. Add your name immediately to
help us reach 25,000 signers ASAP to stop the attacks and save abortion
rights (we’re already 60% of the way there!) >>

Thanks so much,

– The People For Digital Team

rights.

Dear People For Supporter –

In the wake of the stunning news from earlier this week that the Supreme
Court is poised to wipe out our constitutional right to abortion, it’s
worth a look behind the scenes at how the far-right anti-abortion movement
was able to accumulate such a high level of political power – as well as
where their funding is coming from.

Shockingly, a new report from Popular Information details exactly how some
of America’s biggest corporations have funded anti-abortion political
committees and candidates to the tune of more than $15 million since
2016^[1] – in direct contradiction to some of these companies’ public
declarations in support of reproductive rights and justice.

[ [link removed] ]Given the imminent reversal of Roe v. Wade, this cannot be allowed to
continue. Click here to tell these companies to stop donating to
anti-abortion political committees. >>

Let’s be clear as well – that $15 million figure is an understatement, in
that it counts only corporate PAC donations to party committees working to
elect far-right, anti-abortion legislators. It does NOT include corporate
PAC contributions to individual anti-choice legislators, OR corporate
support for anti-abortion non-profits like the Heritage Foundation and the
Federalist Society (contributions that do not have to be publicly
disclosed).

At this point in the Far Right’s continuing assault on our constitutional
rights and freedoms, it’s becoming obvious that we need to escalate our
fight and engage on a variety of fronts beyond the traditional political
ones. America’s biggest corporations now need to take a stand on this
fundamental issue, and decide whether they’ll continue to accept
responsibility for electing far-right politicians openly hostile to our
constitutional rights.

Thanks for all you do – and after you send your message, please be sure to
share our action alert with some friends to help us build momentum on this
issue!

In solidarity,

Will, People For the American Way
