Hello John,

It’s all hands on deck at Abortion Access Front! We’ve only got 10 days before we land in Milwaukee to confront Operation Save America, so we are powering through to get all the elements of our Garbage Fyre Festival welcoming party together. And that’s thanks to YOU and the amazing support you’ve given us during our fundraiser!

While the anti abortion zealots are busy photoshopping fake fetus posters, we’ve been doing some crafting of our own, working on this amazingly cool protest gear! We are all about “go big or go home”… so OF COURSE we’re bringing a 15 foot inflatable trash can as a tribute to the enormity of anti-abortion, anti-science lies and excrement spread by these domestic terrorists.

Oh, and now that we’ve officially announced the Garbage Fyre Festival, the haters have launched cyber attacks on us. This week they tried to get our AAF Facebook page taken down by making a bunch of false reports. It just goes to show that while antis whine and cry about their “freedom of speech” (of which they have a very limited understanding), they are really just petty bullies who would silence anyone who challenges them. HOW PATRIOTIC!

Heads up…tickets are on sale and going fast for the first leg of Abortion AF: The Tour, including shows in Milwaukee, Madison, Minneapolis and Des Moines, so you Midwesterners better get ‘em while they’re hot.  And you can still make a donation to support all this crazy work to build stronger reproductive rights networks and hold space for independent clinics to provide safe and essential abortion care.

Here’s to continuing the fight for reproductive independence this Fourth of July!
