Happy Thanksgiving from Reproaction

Reproaction Local Action Newsletter: November 2020

Hi John- Last week, the Senate confirmed Trump’s third Supreme Court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett. Her lifetime appointment cements an 6-3 conservative supermajority that puts abortion rights, marriage equality, and access to health care at risk. In addition to Barrett’s confirmati…

What Can We Do?

John, I’ll be honest, the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court last week was a tremendous blow. With her on the bench, we expect to see callous attempts to gut Roe, strip people of health insurance, and roll back rights for people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, i…

We have no choice but to win.

You and I still have a chance to win, John. And we have no choice but to try. Even with the sham hearings to ram through the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, and the devastation that will follow, we’re resolved to keep fighting for all our rights. I am fighti…

Brazen.

John, Reproaction launched in 2015 with a simple analysis: Abortion was losing. What the mainstream reproductive rights movement was doing wasn’t working. I’m happy to say our movements have grown bolder during that time. But, taking a longer view, last night’s confirmation of A…

This Is Not The End

John, These are dark days for our country, but this is not the end. From Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court to her confirmation in the middle of an election, what we have seen is a clear disregard for what the people wanted. [1] Don’t let this behavior stand. Giv…

A Vote on Amy Coney Barrett

They Really Do Want To Criminalize Abortion

“Always Immoral”

Big ‘Pro-Life’ is Wrong and Hypocritical
