Reproaction staff and volunteers joined actions across the country this past Saturday to say: “Bans off our bodies!” We rallied with dozens of organizations and hundreds of activists in small towns and major metropolises to not only fight to save Roe and the constitutional right to access abortion but to push for the future of abortion access.
In the current times, affirming and uplifting the organizing action of our partner organizations is incredibly important. We are proud to sign onto the following:
· A letter from Accountability Tech to Twitter Advertisers calling on them to hold the line against Elon Musk’s potential policy changes. This letter was covered by CNNand Gizmodo.
· A letter with 27 other organizations of support to Meta on misogynistic abuse in Instagram DMs.
· An amicus brief from the National Women’s Law Center in support of app-based drivers in Massachusetts.
· Also with the National Women’s Law Center, an additional brief in support of singer-songwriter Kesha.
