Tomorrow, Planned Parenthood, Women's March and several other organizations are spearheading marches across the country to send the message to the Republican Supreme Court, Republican Federal and state legislators, and uterus- tracking Christofascists in general: "Bans Off Our Bodies!" Here's a PP link to go to sign up for events in your area. You can also sign their petition, which reads:
Our bodies are our own — if they are not, we cannot be truly free or equal. Across the country, some politicians are trying to make decisions about our bodies for us. We won't let the abortion bans sweeping the country put our lives and futures at risk, and we won't be silenced while our fundamental right to control our bodies is taken away.
Everyone deserves health care that's free of shame, stigma, or judgment. Together, we say: Get your bans off our bodies!
It should go without saying, but here it is anyway: Men, this is your fight, too! Get involved!
Dessicated Republican arsonist and SCOTUS destroyer Sen. "Moscow Mitch" McConnell said the quiet part loud recently when he signaled that the end of Roe v. Wade would allow Federal legislation to be passed banning abortions nationwide. As long as we have a Democratic President and, even better, control of at least one chamber of Congress, that won't happen. To do this, we need to mobilize not just this Saturday, but every day through the November midterms and beyond to make sure such a radical national policy is never passed, and that over the longer term we can have a SCOTUS that will represent American values and respect our privacy and freedoms.
