Hello Friend, Last year, we grappled with the overturning of abortion rights as we knew them with the destruction of Roe V. Wade by the far-right extremists on the Supreme Court. We took to the streets, rallied, and fought hard to ensure our abortion rights here in Nevada would remain untouched. This year, we’ll be marking the anniversary of Roe V. Wade this weekend at the Progressive Summit with an esteemed panel of experts on the issue of abortion access and reproductive freedom. On Sunday, what would have been the 50th anniversary of Roe V. Wade, our very own Paula Luna will moderate a panel on the future of the fight for abortion rights with Macy Haverda of the Wild West Fund, Victoria Ruiz-Marin of Planned Parenthood Votes Nevada, Jen Ferris from ProgressNow National, Imani Gandy of Rewire.News and Boom! Lawyered, and Shannon Russell from Catholics for Choice. Will you come mark this 50th-anniversary milestone with us? That day, we’ll also be joined by Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan from Oakland, California — the first non-binary and openly LGBTQ+ person elected to public office in Oakland. Join us to learn about the power of organizing and community during Councilmember Kaplan’s keynote address on Sunday! BUT, don’t forget — those in southern Nevada can also have an in-person happy hour on FRIDAY, January 20, 2023, at the CLASSIC JEWEL (353 E Bonneville Ave STE 111) from 6 to 8 p.m.! Come get a free drink on us! We NEVER want cost to be an issue, either. If you’d like to attend, but it’s not in the budget, we have MANY scholarships still available, thanks to our generous sponsors! Please fill out THIS FORM if you’d like to attend at no cost. We hope to see you there! See you at Summit, |
