Dear Friend,
The Republican's 6-week abortion ban just passed its second hurdle out of the Senate Health Policy Committee.
Friend, our worst fears are coming true. Florida Republicans are determined to strip us of our bodily autonomy with this dangerous and extreme abortion ban, and they have the votes to do it.
That’s why your support of Ruth’s List and our mission to elect Democratic pro-choice women to state and local office is so urgent. We are already recruiting and training women for the 2024 election cycle. Can you make a donation today to help us build the bench of women who will restore our rights in the long-term?
This attack on our freedom will not go down without a fight. We are grateful to our Democratic pro-choice women Senators on the committee — Senate Minority Leader Lauren Book, Senators Tracie Davis and Rosalind Osgood for their stalwart defense of our reproductive rights.
As Leader Book wrote in yesterday's Sun Sentinel,"On Monday in the Senate Health Policy Committee, I will lead Senate Democrats in fighting against the GOP’s latest assault on women’s health care and bodily autonomy, with threats to criminalize women and their doctors." She certainly delivered on her word, but we're greatly outnumbered and it's going to take everything we've got to stop this bill.
No matter what happens in this legislative session, Ruth’s List will never give up. If you’re able, will you make a donation today to help us elect more reproductive rights champions? We need you now more than ever.
Onward,
