Friend,
With a full week now behind us, we can say with certainty that one clear message came through on Election Day : When you come after our rights, we will show up to defend them at the ballot – that means our rights to abortion care, to the vote, and to all civil liberties under attack. But now what comes next? It's obvious, no matter the balance of our new Congress, anti-democratic politicians are going to continue going after the fundamental freedoms we believe in. That's why we brought in two of the top experts from our National Political Advocacy Department to go over exactly what the results of these midterms mean and how we can best use the momentum to win the fights we have ahead of us, especially for abortion access and voting rights. Please do not miss this vital post-midterms checkup – ready for you now from the ACLU At Liberty podcast.
Dear friend, in the immediate wake of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe and with a record number of measures on the ballot concerning reproductive freedom, the majority of Americans went to the polls to cast ballots in support of abortion rights. Full stop. And amidst ongoing attacks on democracy from election deniers who have spread the voter fraud myth, people in states across the nation demanded that exercising our right to vote was made easier and more accessible to all, not harder. These outcomes are the results of months and months of galvanizing and mobilizing across the nation by organizers and activists just like you. With new voters, young voters, and folks who maybe would have otherwise stayed home during a midterm election showing up and making an immense difference. All of this dedication to what we believe in truly showed the power of we, the people. And that power is exactly how we will fight back as a community for our rights in the months and years ahead in our critical work. So please get the full rundown on what comes next in this post-election recap – and thank you so much for all you do in this fight. Onward and always,
The ACLU Team.
