Roe v. Wade being eroded at the state level?


  Jim, Watch Cecile Richards talking about the things Republican governors are doing in their states
If this video doesn’t send chills down your spine, I’m not sure what will.
Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards was just on TV talking about some of the things Republican governors are doing in their states to restrict the rights of women and chip away at Roe v. Wade.
The list includes some really extreme measures, from preventing rape crisis centers from advising women about their legal rights to allowing doctors to lie to women about the results of an amniocentesis.
Watch the video, then make a contribution to help us stop these Republican governors from pushing right wing agendas that harm women.
House Republicans are voting today on what the New York Times called “the most restrictive abortion bill to come to a vote in either chamber in a decade.” But as outrageous as it is, the House bill stands little chance of becoming law so long as Democrats control the White House and the Senate.
The biggest threat right now is coming from states, and the DGA is the only organization out there solely focused on stopping radical Republican governors.
If you’re not absolutely convinced that Republican governors are setting women’s rights back several decades, watch this video and then consider making a contribution.
We’re hard at work on plans to replace these Republicans with Democrats who will protect women’s rights, but we need your help.
Thanks,
Mark Giangreco
Democratic Governors Association
