Today, the Supreme Court expressly took away a constitutional right from the American people.

We need to elect Democrats nationwide who will fight to defend our rights. [Democrats][Join us.] Today, the Supreme Court expressly took away a constitutional right from the American people. They didn't limit it, they simply took it away. It's a sad day for the court and for the country. Fifty years ago, Roe v. Wade was decided, and it has been the law of the land since then. This landmark case had protected women's right to choose. It reaffirmed basic principles of equality. And it reinforced a fundamental right of privacy, the right of each of us to choose how to live our lives. Now, with Roe gone, the health and lives of women in this nation are at risk. Let me be very clear and unambiguous. The only way we can secure the right to choose is for Congress to restore Roe v. Wade as federal law. No executive action from the president can do that. If Congress, as it appears, lacks the votes to do that now, voters need to make their voices heard this fall. This November, we must elect more senators and representatives who will fight back. We need to elect more state leaders to protect this right at the local level. We need to restore the protections of Roe as law of the land. [That can’t happen without your help, Meghan.
