Dear John

As promised, we're keeping you in the loop on actions you can take to help protect abortion access.
 
Reproductive Justice Teach-In
On Wednesday, May 18th, our office will be hosting a Reproductive Justice Teach-In with Planned Parenthood, the National Institute for Reproductive Health, and on-the-ground organizers in the fight for reproductive justice! We'll be breaking down what exactly the draft Supreme Court decision means nationally, how it will impact New York City and New York State, and what both our City and state are doing in response. Finally, we'll have some action items on what you can do to help protect people seeking an abortion both in our state and beyond our borders.
 
We'll be meeting at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music garden at 6:30. Please RSVP, so we know how many people to expect!

Direct Action
Abortion rights organizations are calling for mass mobilizations across the country to send a clear message to the Supreme Court that we are not going back. On May 14th, we’ll be marching as part of the Bans Off Our Bodies march starting at noon at Cadman Plaza. This is a coordinated march across the country so when you show up, you’re standing in solidarity with millions of people. We'll march across the Brooklyn Bridge to rally in Foley Square. We have strength in numbers, so bring a friend or two with you!
 
In Solidarity,
Shahana
