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. 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.
