Just this morning → President Biden signed an executive order to expand reproductive care access through the Department of Health and Human Services.
The order includes protections for medication abortion, access to emergency medical care, and access to contraception. But team, we both know this isn’t enough. While we’re encouraged by the administration’s recognition of our dire post-Roe reality, we still urgently need comprehensive state-level action.
In Michigan and Vermont, our team is working with local organizations to win reproductive rights protections at the ballot box this year. And yes, these protections go far beyond the executive order issued just this morning. Not only do they codify a right to choice, they will be crucial in preventing extremist legislatures from attempting to enact future bans and restrictions.
Team, it’s clear we still need these campaigns more than ever before. Federal action is an important first step, but the Supreme Court made it clear: the states have the final say.
So, team, help us power this progress in Michigan and Vermont now and join this movement to enact reproductive rights protections with direct democracy! >>
This is no time to be complacent. We need every possible protection in place for patients and providers across the country. This is no time for half-measures. Millions of people rely on reproductive care. Gaps in care are dangerous. This is no time for slowing down, being polite, or beating around the bush. The time is now for a state-level movement for abortion rights!
Contribute now and power this fight in Michigan, Vermont, and across the country, team:
Thanks, team.
