Friday’s news about Roe v. Wade was expected, but that didn’t make it
any easier to hear. If what you need right now is to connect with loved
ones, be in nature, or anything that will help you process your feelings
-- stop reading this email and take care of yourself. If what you need
right now are some concrete actions to respond to this moment, read on
below. We are in this for a long haul, and we get through this together
-- every one of us should step forward and back as we need to so we can
keep our movement strong.
Indivisibles,
Friday was the day we’ve been dreading: The Republican Supreme Court
officially overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. This is
where the last 50 years of right-wing mobilization against abortion rights
has led us. And the extremists on the Court have told us in their own
words where they’re headed next: “In future cases, we should reconsider
all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including
Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”
In other words: They are coming for contraceptive access, same-sex
marriage and relationships, and every other civil right we’ve fought for
through decades of struggle.
There’s never been a more important time for us to take our future into
our own hands. On Friday, thousands of people did just that by gathering
at hundreds of events across the country to show that we won’t go back. We
have the people on our side, and we’ll need to keep up that kind of energy
to fight back against MAGA extremists and their radical, reactionary
agenda.
Now that the wave of initial mobilizations is complete, we take care of
each other, build sustained pressure, and make sure the GOP regrets this
forever:
1. [ [link removed] ]Fine and donate to an abortion fund -- especially one local to you
or located in a state with a “trigger law” where abortion is now
illegal. People may now need to be traveling great distances to access
the care they need, and we can provide resources to make that possible
while we fight to correct this barbaric injustice.
2. [ [link removed] ]Sign up to volunteer with Give No Ground. The MAGA extremist
platform is out in the open: roll back our fundamental civil rights
and further entrench their patriarchal, white supremacist,
conservative agenda. We have to stop them this November by electing
pro-choice champions who’ll do what it takes (like voting to codify
abortion access, expand the Supreme Court, and more).
3. [ [link removed] ]Give
$10 to
fund Give No Ground. We just went live with a new round of ads to
recruit more activists for this fight; we’re spending hundreds of
thousands on texts and calls in key races; we’re building out more
tools and resources for the Give No Ground website; and so much more.
Grassroots funding is what makes it possible.
Above all, we urge you to find your community and work together to fight
for a future where the lives of pregnant people and the LGBTQ+ community
are valued and protected instead of subordinated to the whims of a
far-right extremist minority. We’re with you in this moment.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
