Dear John,
As we grapple with the overturn of Roe v. Wade and its devastating and far-reaching repercussions, PRH’s coast-to-coast physician network is doing everything in our power to support our communities and provide the essential care people need.
In just the past few weeks, physician advocacy has played a critical role in debunking abortion misinformation and is helping bring to light the profound obstacles patients and providers face right now.
Check out a few updates below, including an important Post-Roe conversation I had with actor, director, and activist Olivia Wilde and PRH Board Members.
We are thrilled that the House recently passed the Women’s Health Protection Act and the Equal Access for Abortion Act. These are critical steps toward protecting communities facing abortion restrictions and bans - but now, we have to call on Senators to meet this moment and respond to the needs of patients, providers, lawyers, and advocates. More to come!
Finally, I ask that you support PRH to help us train more physicians to sustain our fight to ensure every person can access the abortion care they need.
—Dr. Jamila Perritt, President & CEO
