Dear friend, Sign the petition now pushing to protect legal, safe, and accessible abortions as this is essential health care! Health care is a human right. And yet, it’s under attack across the country. On Monday, news broke that the right wing-hijacked Supreme Court appears to be set on overturning Roe v. Wade, which would allow horrible abortion bans to go into effect in dozens of states across the country.1 The leaked draft of the decision shows right-wing justices intend to overturn all of the protections afforded by Roe and launch a full-on attack against reproductive rights. With the final Supreme Court decision expected in the next few weeks, now is the time for our elected officials at all levels, including President Biden, to use all their power to act before any services are cut off. Add your name to the petition now: Safe, legal and accessible abortion care is vital health care, and we need to ensure accessible, high-quality health care to everyone in America. Accessible and affordable quality health care is already limited in our country, and losing access to vital reproductive health care is just going to put more individuals and communities in danger. These bans impact marginalized communities the most,2 and we need public health officials to step in and take action to protect and expand access to abortion and broader reproductive health now. The Republican Party has long politicized abortion as a way to increase power for itself and dictate what a person can and cannot do with their body.3 But the right to an abortion shouldn’t be political because access to safe, legal abortion is access to vital health care, and we need to ensure accessible, high-quality health care to everyone in America. These right-wing Supreme Court justices are on the verge of reversing Roe. Yet these “pro-life” extremists are poised to curtail sensible gun restrictions. And according to the leaked opinion, it’s clear that after they strike down federal protections on abortion, the Supreme Court’s right-wing justices will be targeting federal protections on marriage equality for LGBTQ+ couples.4 We may very well be returning to a country that criminalizes marriage equality. And this is all by design. We have no time to lose—we must take urgent action to protect and expand abortion access now. Sign the petition now: Tell President Biden and the Department of Health and Human Services to take swift action to protect and expand abortion access now. Thanks for all you do. MoveOn.
P.S. Massive rallies to support abortion rights are being organized for this coming Saturday, May 14—pledge here to take to the streets and join masses of Americans demanding reproductive freedom, and share this with your friends and family. #BansOffOurBodies Sources :
