We’re still reeling from the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. But we have to brace ourselves and keep fighting back – because things are about to get even worse:
- State Republicans lept into action – by the end of July, abortion is expected to be illegal in more than a dozen states.
-
But they won’t stop there: Republican state legislators are already scheming to pass new laws that would BAN people from traveling for abortion care to Democratic-held states where it’s legal.
- This would potentially jeopardize safe haven states and further limit access for millions of Americans in Republican-held states.
State Republicans are continuing to use our state legislatures to pass their unpopular agenda with the Supreme Court’s permission. So it’s even more critical to elect more state Democrats who will protect abortion rights, and it’s only possible with grassroots supporters like you.

The Supreme Court has made state legislatures the main battleground for vital issues like abortion rights. Democratic-led states like California and Connecticut have taken action to protect access, with the goal of creating safe havens for people living in Republican-led states with harsh restrictions.
But the more state legislative chambers that Republicans control, the more laws they can pass to block people from traveling to get the care they need. And if the Supreme Court overturns federal protections for marriage equality, contraception, and more, those decisions could also be made by your state legislators – making it even more urgent to elect Democrats who defend our freedoms.
That’s why we’re fighting so hard at the DLCC to build Democratic power in state legislatures across the country. State legislative elections often fly under the radar, and sometimes come down to just a handful of votes, so a little investment goes a long way.
Can you chip in $7 or whatever makes sense in your budget right now to help elect more state Democrats who will fight for abortion access and more?
Thanks,
DLCC Team
