Last week was... not good.

If you need help finding abortion care, want to get involved in the fight for reproductive rights, or learn more about how the Dobbs decision will affect access in Iowa – here are some resources we've put together.

• Iowa’s 4th District Democrats: “Democrats, including Ryan Melton: Dem Candidate for U.S. House, IA-04, walked in the Tabor Days parade in Tabor last night. Some Page county folks helped too! Love seeing the counties work together!”

• President Joe Biden: “I just signed into law the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. While this bill doesn't do everything I want it to, it does include actions that I've long called for that will save lives. Today, we acted for the families that have lost their souls to an epidemic of gun violence.”
• Ross Wilburn: “Today has been heavy, but I'm inspired by the folks I spoke with who let me know they're in this for the long haul. We've got a lot of work to do – let's get to it.”

• ‘Our doors remain open’ in Iowa, Planned Parenthood says after Surpreme Court abortion decision
• Biden signs gun safety bill into law 

• The Final Days of Mississippi’s Last Abortion Clinic

After 5 years of incredible work, Blair Lawton is leaving the Iowa Democratic Party.

We wish him all the best on his next adventure. It’s going to be great!
