Hi John,
Last Friday, we entered a new, terrifying reality — the fundamental right to decide whether or not to have a child, to decide our own futures, was stripped away.
But that same day, millions of people hit the streets with the fury and organization the moment demands. People are donating to abortion funds, circulating resources, and sharing their abortion stories.
The movement is not slowing down. And neither are we.
Over the last week, over 2,000 new people signed up to learn how to run for local office. Hundreds more donated to elect diverse young progressives who will fight locally and in states to defend abortion care.
There is hope, John. We must remember that change has never come from the top down. It comes from people just like you willing to lay it all on the line and fight hard for it.
So, thank you to everyone who took action. Your support means the world, and it inspires me to keep going and keep fighting.
We are not giving up, not now, not ever.
LFG,
Amanda Litman
Co-founder & Co-executive Director
