John—
When the Supreme Court heard arguments in June Medical Services LLC v.
Russo earlier this month, anti-choice groups were out in force to push
appalling mistruths and disinformation.^1
The coronavirus pandemic has led to the postponement of oral arguments for
the rest of this month, and we could see a final decision in this case in
the early summer or even sooner. Win or lose, we have to be ready to fight
for abortion access for everyone, in every state in the country.
We can’t lose sight of the fact that there’s still real, urgent work to be
done right now to protect reproductive freedom and ensure that the
anti-choice majority on the Supreme Court doesn’t take us backward.

abortion rights?
The case before the Court, June Medical Services LLC v. Russo, will decide
whether Louisiana’s clinic shutdown law can go into effect. If the Supreme
Court upholds the law, it will pave the way for anti-choice politicians to
pass similar laws — effectively banning abortion by forcing providers out
of business.^2
This case shouldn’t even be in front of the Court; an identical law from
Texas was struck down just a few years ago when it was deemed
unconstitutional.
But this time, there’s one big difference: Brett Kavanaugh.
His confirmation secured an anti-choice majority on the bench, which means
the outcome of this case could be very different.^3
77% of Americans support the legal right to abortion. As the pro-choice
majority, we refuse to allow out-of-touch politicians to make women and
families pay the price for their extreme political agenda.
That’s why we’re preparing to fight for our reproductive freedom in every
state, no matter what happens at the Supreme Court. Will you chip in?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I’ll donate $15 to defend abortion rights.
Thank you for making reproductive freedom a reality for every body.
—Team NARAL
With the support of people like you, we can make sure that freedom is for
every body.
