People For Supporter –
After far-right Republicans in the Senate blocked the Women’s Health Protection Act from receiving a vote, we’re left with few options in the fight to protect access to abortion care and reproductive freedom. Inevitably, for the time being, this fight will turn to the states – where a patchwork of bills and legislation will determine whether safe and legal abortion care remains accessible to millions of people.
But this fight is far from over. There are tools at our disposal that can help reverse the extreme and barbaric attacks on reproductive freedom from far-right legislators. It’s going to take advocacy from people just like you.
Q1: A draft Supreme Court opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade has been covered in great detail by media outlets. Do you expect that the final opinion (due in June) will be less severe or just as bad as the draft that was leaked?
◯ I expect the final opinion will be the draft that was leaked with little changed. >>
◯ I expect the final opinion to be narrower than what was leaked due to the public backlash. >>
Mobilization efforts at the state level are already underway, but we must not lose sight of one of the best opportunities we’ll have to hold the elected officials accountable who are opposed to abortion care: turning out the vote in the upcoming elections!
Make no mistake, the Far Right will do everything possible to expand their numbers in Congress and pass a nationwide abortion ban if Roe is overturned. We must grow the Democratic majorities in both chambers so that we can continue pushing for a federal law protecting access to abortion care.
Please take a moment to let us know how you’re willing to help out in the weeks and months ahead >>
Thank you for fighting alongside us.
In solidarity,
Zach, People For the American Way
