Due to centuries of systemic discrimination, abortion bans fall hardest on Black, Latina, Indigenous, and other people of color. Together, we must all fight back. This election, we saw voters give elected officials a directive: protect and restore abortion rights and access.

Just now, I was on the Senate floor—AGAIN—to block a GOP bill that would make it harder for women to get abortion care. When I say Republicans are not done ripping away a woman's ability to make her own health care decisions, I mean it. I will not give up this fight.

We told you they wouldn’t stop at abortion. Now our right to birth control is under attack.

In retrospect, it was inevitable that this particular judge would come for contraception.

It's been 10 years since the tragedy at Sandy Hook. A million things run through my mind today, thinking back on that awful day. But mainly, I think about the things we take for granted. How it can all disappear. And the daily kindness and grace that Sandy Hook should inspire.

We didn't back down after the Supreme Court eliminated our constitutional right to abortion. We reclaimed our rights at the polls and delivered critical victories for abortion access in races across the country. And this is just the beginning. 💯

Don't forget → In EVERY state where abortion was on the ballot, voters chose to protect reproductive freedom: 5-0. When abortion is on the ballot, it wins.✌️

If it was up to Senator Lindsey Graham, the Senate would pass a nationwide abortion ban within the year 😤 But thanks to everyone who helped repro champions win, we have the tools we need to fight back — a Senate majority!

You helped protect abortion rights by electing sexual and reproductive health champions (HELLO,

Why having 51 vs. 50 senators matters way more for Democrats than you think

!) Expanded Senate majority = confirmation of more judges nominated by President Biden (this impacts you!)

Senate Democrats won an additional seat, and the new organizing rules for the chamber will give Democrats firm control over committee action.

Even Abortion Ban States Push for Further Restrictions on Reproductive Health

Anti-abortion politicians are gearing up to push more restrictions on reproductive health in 2023, even in states where abortion is already banned. Their next target? Birth control.

We need to reclaim our courts. We need to put pressure on our lawmakers to fill court vacancies with judges who share our values.

That’s why we are seeing so many lawsuits challenging policies that protect access to essential health care. Because without the public on their side, anti-abortion activists think the courts are their best bet.

Many cases about abortion could be decided by judges in the lower federal courts — not the Supreme Court. Guess what: Donald Trump appointed a TON of federal judges–more than 200, to be exact.

For decades, people hostile to our rights have been rigging the system, including filling our courts with judges who think like them. The courts are meant to protect our rights. But that can’t happen when vacancies are packed by anti-abortion extremists.

Okay, let’s talk about it. Why is this happening? How are anti-abortion activists using our courts to advance their agenda? Why do courts matter?
