Dear John,
Today, NC Republicans filed a 12-week abortion ban in a closed-door process with no public comment. We're outraged and we know you are too. We knew this was coming. Republicans have made it clear they want to control our healthcare decisions and take away our freedom to make our own decisions about our bodies and lives.
It’s time to stop the attack on our rights and our lives. Contact your legislators today to tell them to vote NO on this abortion ban.
We need to make our voices heard and we ask you to reach out to Democratic legislators who have voted with Republicans in the past, like Reps. Michael Wray, Garland Pierce, and Cecil Brockman and Republicans in swing districts like Reps. Tricia Cotham, Ted Davis, Timothy Reeder, Stephen Ross and Sen. Michael Lee. Let them know we won't stand for these attacks on our rights!
The only way to ensure abortion remains accessible in North Carolina is to vote these anti-abortion extremists out of office. We are actively recruiting real pro-choice, progressive women to challenge anti-abortion legislators. You can help our recruitment and training efforts by making a contribution today.
All contributions will be matched up to $1,000 by our generous donors, Sara Smith & Peter Morris, MD.
We are in the fight of our lives to protect abortion access in NC and across the Southeast. Thank you for being a part of this fight!
In solidarity,
Sarah Preston
