The conservative Supreme Court just voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, a decision that will harm millions upon millions of women. Conservatives and Republicans have been scheming for this day to come for the past 50 years. They've stacked the courts, elected anti-choice candidates, signed "trigger bans", and written extremist provisions into their anti-abortion laws.
Every dollar you donate in an iteration of 73 (since Roe v Wade was established in 1973) directly funds our efforts to flip at least two Senate seats and defend our House majority this November so that we can abolish the filibuster and codify reproductive freedom.
The decision also makes it clear that the Court does not intend to stop at overturning Roe. In his opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas called for overturning precedents on contraceptives and LGBTQ+ rights.
If we hope to protect women's reproductive rights, voting rights, and LGBTQ rights, we will have to do so by passing legislation.聽And that can only happen if we expand our Senate majority in November and abolish the filibuster.
Seats to Defend:
Sen. Mark Kelley, Arizona
Sen. Raphael Warnock, Georgia
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, Nevada
Seats to Flip:
North Carolina, Judge Cheri Beasley
Pennsylvania, Lt Gov John Fetterman
Wisconsin, Democratic Candidate TBD
