Despite the fact that over 70% of Americans support protecting Roe v. Wade, this vote is most likely to fail. All because of the filibuster.
Later today, the Senate will hold a vote for the Women’s Health Protection Act — which would codify abortion rights in response to news that the Supreme Court plans on overturning Roe v. Wade in the coming weeks.
Despite the fact that over 70% of Americans support protecting Roe v. Wade, this vote is most likely to fail. All because of the filibuster.
Politicians like Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul have made it clear that they couldn't care less about our needs: they will continue using the filibuster to block the Women’s Health Protection Act, voting protections, climate action, and so much more. If we want to save abortion access in our country, we must abolish the filibuster.
Before the vote starts today, will you please sign our petition demanding the Senate to abolish the filibuster so we can finally pass the Women’s Health Protection Act?

We can’t underestimate the urgency of this moment.
If action isn’t taken soon, abortion access will disappear all across the country — including in Kentucky, where we are already fighting a law that would effectively ban abortions in our State.
This is why we’re running against Rand Paul, who has consistently upheld an anti-woman, anti-family agenda and voted against the protections we need to defend reproductive rights.
This is why it’s so critical we expand our Senate majority and end the destructive filibuster that has blocked so many opportunities to protect abortion access in our country.
And this is why we’re reaching out to you, to ask for your support.
It’s going to take a loud, widespread call to action if we want to abolish the filibuster. Please add your name right now before the Senate votes today demanding that they abolish the filibuster so we can pass the Women’s Health Protection Act and everything in our progressive agenda.

Together,
Team Booker
