The United States Supreme Court has officially overruled Roe v. Wade — relegating decisions about abortion access to each state. This decision harms everybody, and will have a devastating impact on access to abortion across the country — particularly for people of color, people in rural areas, and those who are struggling to make ends meet.
We understand that the weight of this decision and this moment in history might feel unbearably heavy. We can and must take time to pause, grieve, and process. Scream into a pillow. Join a protest.
But one thing we can’t do is abandon hope — or each other.
We still have the power to push for reproductive freedom — by casting our ballots, making our voices heard, and supporting grassroots organizations that are working tirelessly to ensure that people seeking an abortion can access the care they need.
Can you split a donation today between three of those organizations — the Feminist Women's Health Center, the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective, and ARC Southeast? [[link removed]]
Here’s a little more background on these groups:
The Feminist Women's Health Center has been operating in Atlanta and providing care for over 45 years, and is an independent clinic on the front lines of the battle to protect abortion access.
The SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective is a diverse collective of women of color dedicated to growing and supporting the reproductive justice movement, and to uplifting the voices and building the capacity to win access to abortion and all other reproductive rights.
ARC Southeast is a fund that helps those in need overcome barriers and ensure they have the resources to access reproductive healthcare, including abortion access, in six states across the Southeast.
It’s no coincidence that the same state legislators attacking voting rights are also restricting access to abortion care.
They know that our freedom to vote is critical to electing leaders who represent the 8 in 10 Americans who support the legal right to abortion. These legislators attacking rights don’t want to compete in free and fair elections, because they know they can’t win on the merits of their unpopular policies — so they try to create barriers to the ballot box.
At Fair Fight, we’ll continue working to ensure free and fair elections for all — so the vast majority of Americans who support Roe v. Wade can freely elect leaders who will defend abortion rights and support our freedom to vote.
And we’ll continue to organize in tandem with our allies and those communities most heavily impacted as we fight to protect ALL of our freedoms.
Please split a contribution today between the Feminist Women's Health Center, the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective, and ARC Southeast. [[link removed]]
Thank you for everything, and please take care of yourself,
The Fair Fight Team
