Undeterred

Today marks the second grim anniversary of Dobbs v. Jackson, the ruling in which right-wing extremists on the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and ripped reproductive health care and bodily autonomy away from millions of women across America.

Over the past two years, we've continually seen the true horror of the far-right's crusade on women and the constitutional right to privacy:

• Women denied the health care they need in emergency rooms, putting their lives in danger
• Doctors fearing being persecuted for doing their job
• Women forced to flee states to receive abortion care
• Efforts to ban IVF, mifepristone, and basic birth control

And the list goes on.

But as difficult as the last two years have been, they have also reaffirmed a fundamental truth: the American people don't sit quietly when their rights are taken away.

We've seen record turnout in down-ballot races against anti-choice extremists and their agenda that is wildly out of step with what the American people want. We've even seen voters in "red" states such as Montana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Kansas defeat abortion bans or pass abortion protections. History and public opinion are on our side – and if we elect a Democratic House, Senate, and President this November, I know that our first order of business will be legislatively codifying federal abortion protections.

While the fight ahead won't be easy, our cause is stronger than ever, and the path to victory is possible. So, I hope you'll join me in my efforts to elect more pro-choice Democrats to the Senate. Every bit of support helps!

Onward
