John, today is a
disastrous day for women, for civil rights, and for the future of our
country on many, many levels.

It’s devastating.

The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, just overturned Roe v. Wade.

The decision now gives each state the right to ban abortions. 

Dozens of conservative led states are now expected to ban them as early as
this afternoon.

This first thing I thought of is who would be hurt first: Black and brown
communities whose access to abortion and reproductive services was already
difficult. 

Now, with the South becoming a virtual desert for abortion, to get an
abortion, you would have to travel hundreds, even THOUSANDS of miles.

Some folks can’t take days off of work to travel that far, or have the
money to pay to afford the journey or procedure. 

Tens of millions of people are going to be put in harm’s way as a direct
result of this disastrous Supreme Court ruling.

To be clear, this will not stop abortions, it will only make them
inaccessible and DANGEROUS. 

This decision, because of this extreme right, conservative court, will
turn back the progress we have made in this country for the past 50 years.

Looking ahead, It’s going to be DAs who are the first line of defense in
this fight — and progressive District Attorneys and Attorney Generals are
already fighting back. 

Real Justice PAC has helped elect 24 DAs who have pledged to refuse to
prosecute abortion cases in their jurisdictions. And a few of them are
under attack, including Joe Gonzales and John Creuzot in Texas, who have
tough elections against Republicans in November.

We need your help to grow the number of DAs who will join them in that
pledge. [ [link removed] ]Please, make a donation right now to help protect our current
pro-choice DAs from right-wing attacks, but elect even more of them to
uphold abortion rights in this country.

I am going through some intense emotions thinking about all this and I
know you must be too. I want you to know that you are not alone in those
feelings, OK? 

Please reply to this email if you would like to share how you are feeling
right now.

Take care of yourself today.

Love and appreciate you,



Shaun
