Dear John,

It is indisputable that abortion bans have done tremendous harm to our communities and after the Dobbs decision that overturned the constitutional right to abortion, we are left with even fewer protections in place. Make no mistake: this crisis is getting worse and PRH’s physician network remains on the frontlines fighting back.

Earlier this month, Fellow Dr. Nisha Verma and I proudly represented PRH at the White House for a meeting of the Task Force on Reproductive Health Care Access. Watch as we share with President Biden and Vice President Harris the impact of the Dobbs decision on providing abortion care as a part of full spectrum reproductive health care.

We will continue to use every opportunity to protect the health and wellbeing of our communities from politically motivated attacks on essential health care.

Donate now and help sustain our work advancing reproductive health, rights, and justice nationwide. Thank you!

—Dr. Jamila Perritt, President & CEO
