Human rights are NOT up for debate

Johh, It's now been a few weeks since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and in that time, we have seen many states take action to protect reproductive rights. We have also seen many other states move to completely ban abortions, endangering their citizens and putting millions of lives a…

Thank you!

I wanted to take a moment tonight to say thank you for everything, Johh. These past few months our country has seen perhaps some of the worst attacks in decades on our fundamental rights. But in the midst of these bleak and devastating moments, this grassroots movement only worked harder than ev…

We can't stand idly by and let the courts strip our rights away

Johh, Yesterday, the Supreme Court officially overturned Roe v. Wade and left millions of women across our country without protections over their reproductive rights. This is outrageous and deeply saddening. Diana knows that we can't stand idly by and let the court strip away our rights like this…

Roe v. Wade has been overturned

Johh, Last month, Politico warned us that the Supreme Court had decided to overturn the precedent from Roe v. Wade, and today, we live in a country where reproductive choice is not protected. Though we knew that this was coming, this decision is devastating, and it is difficult to come to terms…
