John—
Anti-choice extremists have been exploiting the COVID-19 pandemic for months — ignoring medical experts, pushing disinformation, putting ideology over science, and harming public health by trying to ban abortion in states across the country.
Now, anti-choice members of Congress are trying to use the latest COVID-19 relief bill to push for unprecedented expansions of abortion coverage restrictions.1 This move is yet another example of how the anti-choice movement and its Republican allies in elected office are willing to jeopardize our health and well-being, even in the middle of a pandemic, to push their extreme and unpopular agenda.
We’re not going to sit silently while Republicans in Congress use relief bills to attack our rights. Donate $15 now to help fund our campaign to ensure COVID relief bills help Americans in desperate need of economic relief and expanded access to healthcare — not let them be hijacked to restrict reproductive freedom.
Politicizing a pandemic to deny women the critical and time-sensitive care they need — all to put politicians in the middle of people's personal decision-making — proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is no low anti-choice extremists won’t sink to in order to advance their dangerous agenda.
It's outrageous that, in 2020, politicians are still trying to take away our reproductive freedom. That's what we saw unfold from Ohio to Texas as mostly-male lawmakers used this pandemic to spread disinformation to try to ban abortion. These are cynical exploitation tactics and dirty tricks. Full stop.
We're fighting back with everything we've got, but we need your help, John. Make a donation of $15 now to show that the 77% of Americans who support legal abortion aren’t willing to let anti-choice Republicans use the COVID-19 pandemic as a smokescreen to decimate abortion access.
We count on people like you to step up in moments like this one — so thank you for always fighting with us.
Sincerely,
Ilyse Hogue
President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
With the support of people like you, we can make sure that freedom is for every body.
