John,
The issue of protecting reproductive rights has yet another battle to fight as states from Florida to Texas work to restrict access to abortion medication.
The Biden administration is taking steps to address this issue by urging the US Food and Drug Administration to approve a regulation that would make these pills more easily accessible at pharmacies across the nation.
However, despite federal laws, states are passing legislation that will stop the sale of these medications. This blatant disregard for federal law cannot be allowed to continue.
The U.S. Department of Justice has the power to challenge these state abortion bans that violate federal law, and they must use them now. Tell the Justice Department to take action immediately.
Restricting access to these medications can have serious consequences and can force individuals to seek out unsafe alternatives, putting them at risk of harm.
This dangerous trend puts individuals' rights at further risk, even in states where the right to an abortion is legal.
These restrictions disproportionately harm communities of color, which have fewer resources to overcome these restrictions.
We must speak out against these restrictive laws and defend the right to safe and legal abortion care, especially for those who already face barriers that limit their reproductive rights.
Sign the petition to the U.S. Department of Justice demanding all state abortion bans that violate federal law be challenged now.
Together, we can protect reproductive rights and ensure that all individuals can make their own healthcare decisions without the interference of extremist Republicans.
