Supporting local abortion funds that help arrange and pay for abortion care for patients who need it is one of the most impactful actions you can take for reproductive justice today.
Team @AOC is splitting donations between 5 groups doing this work:

a majority of the court was nominated by presidents who lost the popular vote
Reporter: âIf all the polling is correct and abortion rights folks have public sentiment on their side, why have people continued to vote for a party that wants to do away with abortion rights?â
Press Sec. Psaki: âThat sounds like a question for those people who vote that way.â

We could protect Roe tomorrow, but Sinema refuses to act on the filibuster. Until that changes she can take a seat talking about âwomenâs access to health care.â
Hold everyone contributing to this disaster accountable, GOP & Dem obstructionists included. She should be primaried.
.@SenatorSinema on SCOTUS/Roe: âThroughout my time in Congress, Iâve always supported womenâs access to health care, Iâm a cosponsor of the Womenâs Health Protection Act, and Iâll continue working with anyone to protect womenâs ability to make decisions about their futures.â

Murkowski voted for Amy Coney Barrett when Trump himself proclaimed that he was appointing justices specifically to overturn Roe.
She and Collins betrayed the nationâs reproductive rights when they were singularly capable of stopping the slide. They donât get to play victim now
MURKOWKSI on if she felt that SCOTUS nominees misled her during the confirmation process: "My confidence in the court has been rocked. "

Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there arenât 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes.

People elected Democrats precisely so we could lead in perilous moments like these- to codify Roe, hold corruption accountable, & have a President who uses his legal authority to break through Congressional gridlock on items from student debt to climate.
Itâs high time we do it.

If we donât, what message does that send? We canât sit around, finger point, & hand wring as peopleâs futures + equality are on the line.
Itâs time to be decisive, lead with confidence, fight for a prosperous future for all and protect the vulnerable.
Leave it all on the field.

As weâve warned, SCOTUS isnât just coming for abortion - theyâre coming for the right to privacy Roe rests on, which includes gay marriage + civil rights.
Manchin is blocking Congress codifying Roe. House has seemingly forgotten about Clarence Thomas. These 2 points must change
Alito's draft opinion explicitly criticizes Lawrence v. Texas (legalizing sodomy) and Obergefell v. Hodges (legalizing same-sex marriage). He says that, like abortion, these decisions protect phony rights that are not "deeply rooted in history." politico.com/f/?id=00000180-âŠ

âBut the door has been open to possibly larger,â a source told The Hill. âLots of options on the table. They are doing a lot of listening right now.â
Now is the time to get REALLY LOUD. We need to go big and bold.

Tired of having to collectively stress about what explosion of hate crimes is happening bc some billionaire with an ego problem unilaterally controls a massive communication platform and skews it because Tucker Carlson or Peter Thiel took him to dinner and made him feel special

âThe extreme left is taking overâ WHERE. In Texas, Republicans passed a law allowing rapists to sue their victims for getting an abortion.
Can anyone name a âfar leftâ policy that extreme implemented anywhere? We canât even get our party to import cheaper RXs from Canada. foh
