John,

This morning, a decades-long project of the extreme right-wing has come to
fruition: The Supreme Court has overturned the constitutional right to
abortion established in Roe v. Wade.

As one of the one in four women in this country who has had an abortion, I
am outraged for what this will mean for those who need abortion care —
particularly those who will be most harmed by this decision: Black and
Brown women, those who live in rural areas or have lower incomes and can’t
afford to cross state lines for care, young people and LGBTQ people, and
women in abusive relationships.

This is a code red: the Supreme Court greenlit forced pregnancy — taking
away an intensely personal freedom for pregnant people to make decisions
about their own bodies, and instead brought politicians into your decision
and your bedroom.

Every woman, every family, every pregnant person should fear what this
means for their futures. And it’s more important than ever that we elect
progressives who will fight back against these attacks on reproductive
rights.

As leader of the Progressive Caucus, my team is organizing every day — in
Seattle and across the nation — to elect leaders who will defend and
advocate for our freedoms. [ [link removed] ]Your donation allows us to do this work, and

This Supreme Court and Republicans in Congress will not stop here —
same-sex and interracial marriage, LGBTQ+ rights, the right to
contraception, and more could very well be next.

House Democrats have passed bills to protect LGBTQ rights and abortion
rights, as well as to end discriminatory insurance coverage bans on
abortion to expand access — but all have been blocked by Republicans in
the Senate. Those Senators who voted no have an obligation to reconsider
their decision — and the devastation facing this country if they don’t.

We need to reform the filibuster, so a Jim Crow procedure is not standing
the way of action to protect people’s human rights. But we also clearly
need not just a Democratic majority, but a clear pro-choice majority in
the Senate, as we do in the House. All of us must continue to take this
righteous anger to the streets and to the voting booths.

In solidarity,

Pramila Jayapal
