Dear Friend,
Happy New Year!
It’s hard to believe it's 2020
already. We know that 2019 was filled with many hard-fought battles as
we encountered total abortion bans, continued separation of families,
and the many targets on our bodies. It was hard but we’re back and
we’re ready!
It’s a new year and URGE is
committed as ever to the fight for reproductive justice for young
people across the South and Midwest. We know you are working hard for
young people in your state, and we are continuing to work hard for
young people on the federal level. As Congress comes back from the
holidays we are meeting with legislators and demanding that they pass
policies the ensure reproductive justice for young people. Let them hear from you too!
Policies like the EACH
Woman Act, Women’s
Health Protection Act,
and Real
Education for Healthy Youth Act would ensure that young people can access abortion regardless
of zip code or health insurance and receive comprehensive sex
education that is non-stigmatizing and medically accurate.
Please contact your legislators
today and tell them to pass
policies that ensure reproductive justice for young people!
In 2020 the fight for reproductive
justice continues and we look forward to continuing that work with
you!
In Solidarity,
Monica Edwards & Preston
Mitchum
Federal Policy Manager &
Director of Policy
