Dear Friend,
Today should have been the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Every day since the Supreme Court overturned Roe, more and more people are being denied abortion care, making what was already a dire situation that much worse.
Since the fall of Roe, abortion bans have taken effect in nearly half of the country. Here in Florida, abortion is now illegal after 15 weeks -- and if Republicans in the state legislature have their way, it could be restricted even further.
We deserve the freedom to make decisions about our own reproductive healthcare. We deserve access to abortion care no matter who we are, where we're from, or how much we earn. And we deserve leaders who will fight for this freedom and access. That's why Ruth's List was created -- to recruit, train, and elect Democratic pro-choice women leaders who will fight for abortion rights and access. And it's never been more important than it is right now.
With Republicans in the supermajority in Tallahassee, we won't be able to stop further abortion restrictions this session. That's why we must continue to build the bench and elect more pro-choice women to the state legislature.
Will you chip in $50 in honor of what would be Roe's 50th anniversary? Your support will help us
elect more Democratic pro-choice women who will make restoring abortion rights in Florida a top priority.
