hallo loves
quick one, if you're online RIGHT NOW....
.....tell the truth, tell the truth, tell the truth.
today @abortionfront have an all day fundraiser happening on their instagram live. i'll be appearing as one of their guests in a few minutes.
join us as we watch “Operation Save Abortion,” which will raise money for independent abortion clinics around the country who are in danger of closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
three out of five people who get an abortion in the US go through an independent provider and their needs within the coming weeks are extremely urgent.
we owe it to everyone faced with an unintended pregnancy to stand with them and support them, understanding they know what is best for their situation, ESPECIALLY during a pandemic.
things are dark.
join me.
(if you can't watch live you can also donate any time at KeepOurClinics.org or in the USA you can text “Give” to 612-315-1921)
some facts about what's happening:
- 12 states have tried to use COVID-19 as a way to halt procedures
- Abortion is essential, time-sensitive healthcare and can’t wait.
- Who decides what is best for you and your situation, especially in these very scary times?
- In the past 10 years, states have passed laws that have closed clinics and made access to abortion out of reach for the most vulnerable, poor people, and people of color.
- Courts keep striking these laws down, then states pass new laws. This puts clinics on a roller coaster of care, creating confusion. A lot of people don’t even understand that ABORTION IS STILL LEGAL IN ALL 50 STATES.
- The same people who fight against “Taxpayer funded abortion” are creating taxpayer funded lawsuits, which they end up losing because their every attempt at banning abortion is unconstitutional.
- WIth courts changing, we could start losing these challenges and we should all be very scared about that.
- We owe it to everyone faced with an unintended pregnancy to stand with them and support them, understanding they know what is best for their situation, ESPECIALLY during a pandemic.
