America, our freedoms are under attack
Today, it is abortion; tomorrow, it is an attack on birth control, interracial and LGBTQIA marriages, and more.
"White Christian nationalists believe the US was founded as a Christian nation, although the Constitution never mentions God and enshrines the separation of church and state. Its adherents twist biblical language to justify violence, sexism and hostility toward people of color.”1
White Christian Nationalists want to promote cruelty and

This past week, a new 6-week abortion ban has been implemented in Florida that has a significant impact on the Southeastern region of the United States.
More than 80,000 women get an abortion in Florida every year, which accounts for approximately 1 in 12 nationwide. Abortion care is safe and should be accessible to all who need it.
Friendly reminder that it was just two weeks ago that People Power United was at the Supreme Court to defend emergency abortion care without political interference. Abortion opponents want pregnant people to suffer or even die rather than allow doctors to provide the emergency abortion care they need.
This extreme abortion ban is an attack on families and everyone who calls America home.
We will continue to urge our members to advocate for Congress to pass the Women's Health Protection Act, which codifies into law the right to an abortion for any family seeking one. Additionally, we encourage everyone to bookmark and share these confidential and secure resources: ChatWithCharley.org and PlanCPills.org. We will organize and elect leaders who respect the people's will and our rights, freedoms, and democracy.
