It’s a dangerous time for reproductive rights

We must fight back to ensure that women maintain bodily autonomy [Recent attacks on reproductive rights are a terrifying reminder of the dangers of Republican control in the House – and in states around the country including here in Georgia. I’m fighting to build Democratic political power so we can enshrine our right to reproductive healthcare. Please donate today to help me build our grassroots movement in support of reproductive rights.]( [DONATE NOW]( {NAME}, When the SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, we feared that many American women would lose their right to an abortion. Now that the dust has settled, we’re able to see the repercussions playing out – and it’s a horrifying picture. Let’s break it down. A recent news story out of Tennessee details how a woman with a failed pregnancy was legally unable to get an abortion in the state. The fact that the fetus would be unable to survive was irrelevant to their recently-enacted abortion ban. In a post-Roe world, women are increasingly being put in these impossible situations, all because of Republican politicians’ disregard for their safety. I’ve been very open about my own experiences with failed pregnancies. I suffered through multiple miscarriages and a stillbirth, and they were some of the most difficult experiences of my life. My story is my own, but millions of other American women have faced similar struggles – and now Republicans are trying to outlaw some of the medications that helped ease my pain in those traumatic moments. If abortion is murder, is miscarriage manslaughter? No one should be prosecuted for a failed pregnancy. Period. To make matters worse, the pressure from Republicans is starting to carry over to major corporations around the country. Walgreens just announced that they won’t distribute abortion pills in states where Republicans have threatened legal action – even where abortion is still legal and available. It’s safe to say that we’re facing the most dangerous attacks on reproductive rights that we've seen in decades. The time is now to turn up the heat and build up our grassroots movement to fight back. We must win back Democratic control at all levels of government so we can pass laws that protect the right to an abortion, once and for all. [I’m doing the work to build this grassroots movement, and I’d love to have you fighting along with me. Can you show your support by chipping in a donation to my campaign today? It would mean the world to me and the countless women suffering under the GOP’s new draconian laws.]( [CHIP IN]( so much, Lucy McBath --------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent to {EMAIL}.
