Rebecca* finally gets home after driving nearly 24 hours in three days just to get an abortion, a procedure that took as little as five to ten minutes.
She would never have had to make such a journey if lawmakers in states like Texas respected the will of the majority of Texans — and the entire country — who want to keep abortion legal.
Unfortunately, years of gerrymandering and voter suppression in her state have helped anti-abortion politicians hold on to power even as they go against what the majority of their constituents want. The anti-abortion rights majority on the U.S. Supreme Court has enabled those state lawmakers to strip away access to care.
While voters in many states resoundingly rejected anti-abortion extremism, a majority of lawmakers in states like Rebecca's still support abortion bans. So the fight continues.
Donate to Planned Parenthood Action Fund before midnight tonight to help us meet our 10,000 donor goal. Every donor who gives makes us that much stronger in the fight to overturn abortion bans that force patients to travel hours just to access essential health care.
