Twenty something years ago I was able to control my fertility when I was not ready for a child. I had access to birth control, access to doctors, access to abortion.
I’m floored by the news that a woman, a girl can no longer control what she does with her body.
I’m going to chose to turn towards hope: what can be done?

Like those before us, this moment demands that we fight for a future where safe abortion care is available to everyone who needs it. We join

Wherever you live, we all need access to abortions in our communities. Laws like SB8 in Texas and bans in states like Oklahoma, Florida, and Idaho target communities that have survived systemic oppression. All people deserve access to the abortion care they need, when they need it, in the community they live in and trust.
If you’re looking for some actions to take, here’s where you can start:
— Mobilize and join a demonstration in your area. You can find local events using map.wewontgoback.com
— Contact your governor and state legislators to demand they protect and expand abortion rights
— Record and post a video of a call to your legislator to protect abortion
— Donate to
@abortionfunds
— Share why you fight for abortion access
#WhateverTheReason
— Contact your local
@plannedparenthood to join their local advocacy campaign efforts and community care work
