An open letter to the President

President Biden, do MUCH more to support abortion rights, and do it now!

679 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

The right-wing dark-money donors have finally gotten what they wanted—a Supreme Court confident enough in their power to overrule almost 50 years of constitutional precedent and strip women of their bodily rights. Only 13 states and Washington DC have laws that explicitly protect access to abortion. Millions of women will be affected – they will be forced to give birth, defined by the U.N. as a war crime. Pregnant people will die. Mothers and children will suffer. It’s horrific. The Executive branch must do much more than it has thus far in response. First, now that the Court has officially overturned Roe v. Wade, please consider using the sovereign immunity of federal property as safe havens for women seeking reproductive care. Next, qualified immunity, the same shield that protects violent cops, should be extended to protect healthcare providers from private lawsuits arising out of the performance of their jobs. All actual abortion services, furthermore, should either be free of charge or supported by donations to fit within the Hyde Amendment rules. Something else to be explored: Tribal lands and land belonging to foreign nations are also locations with immunity from state governments. Finally, please continue to emphasize the need for our Senators to remove the filibuster, both for voting rights and the bodily sovereignty of women. And PLEASE, support court expansion. Your unwillingness to do so is a bitter blow to those of us who worked to elect you yet are now having our rights stripped away. Thanks.
