John, after the Dobbs v. Jackson decision last summer, we knew
that the Republicans were just starting to play a dangerous game with the
lives and rights of Americans.
Now, we have learned that they are willing to up the wager and allow women
to die while waiting on lifesaving care. Last week, Republicans again
discussed banning interstate travel for women on the chance that they may
seek an abortion in states where it is still legal. This means that even
in the cases of rape, incest, or risk to the mother's life, hospitals and
doctors may have their hands tied.
As reported by the Hill and the NYT: "[A] New York Times investigation
found that very few of the promised exceptions have been granted. Doctors
and hospitals “are turning away patients,” the Times reported, “saying
that ambiguous laws and the threat of criminal penalties make them
unwilling to test the rules.”
Women are being asked to wait until they believe they are septic to seek
care at hospitals. They are being asked to consider birthing their
rapist's child - even if they are children themselves. Women are dying,
and the GOP will continue to bring forward more restrictive measures to
gain political points with the anti-choice voting bloc.
This is an urgent matter. We cannot allow the GOP to continue playing with
the lives of women to win over a voting base. We've got to put on the
pressure NOW and get the messaging out that they gamble with our rights
and our LIVES. [ [link removed] ]Can you pitch in today to ensure we can let voters know
the Republicans will do ANYTHING to get power?

John, we must take a stand against the callous and cruel nature
of the GOP. Our freedoms and our lives depend on the people knowing about
those in power who abuse that power and put us all at risk. Thank you for
standing with us.
