The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
We knew this was coming, but it is still shocking.
This decision goes against what the majority of Americans want. It threatens women’s health, safety, and economic well-being.
This is exactly the outcome anti-choice extremists wanted -- they’ve chipped away at reproductive freedom for decades and they’ve pushed hundreds of anti-choice restrictions in states across the country. Now in Roe’s absence, there are states with abortion bans that will immediately go into effect and others that will move to do the same. Justice Thomas' opinion is even more appalling -- suggesting bans on same-sex marriage and contraception.
I want to say to you now. This isn’t the end. We keep fighting -- together.
The attacks on reproductive freedom won't stop here. Mitch McConnell already confirmed that.
If you’re angry, I encourage you to get involved. Vote. March. Speak up. Donate.
And if you can, consider chipping in to our campaign. I’m fighting to make Roe the law of the land so everyone can make their own decisions about their health, bodies, and families.

I’m shocked and saddened by the Supreme Court’s decision, but knowing I have you in this fight with me gives me hope for what comes next.
Thank you for all you do,
Mikie
