    Tell Your Governor: Protect Reproductive Rights NOW

    Brett Kavanaugh, a stand-out amongst even the most elite bigots, is Trump's Supreme Court nominee. Without direct intervention from state Governors right now, both the Supreme Court and the Trump Administration will do unimaginable harm against women and mothers for decades to come. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signed an executive order protecting the right to access contraceptives and the right of choice for women in the state. Clearly, Governors have the power to take action through legislation and we have the power to make them move on this right now. 

    Even before this new federal assault, reproductive rights have always been a matter of life and death for Black women in America. Black communities have fewer safe options when it comes to abortion and die disproportionately from maternal mortality. In fact, Black women are 243 times more likely to die during and after childbirth than white women. The current conditions are unacceptable as it is and this Administration is only seeking to make it worse. We must push Governors to action by forcing them to write reproductive rights into state legislation immediately. 

    This is not 1918, this is 2018 in America. Women are not second class citizens and we will not be cowed into compliance. We need force our state officials to take action against an Administration that is anti-choice and anti-woman. 

    Sign our petition to demand that your state Governor protect reproductive rights now!

    Here is the Petition:
    We are at a crisis point when to comes to reproductive and maternal rights in America. Women are under constant threats to their safety, and Black women are enduring life and death circumstances. With this latest attack on women through Trump's selection of Brett Kavanaugh, an anti-choice and extreme bigot that is anti-lgbt and anti-women, state Governors must be moved to action to codify legislation into state constitution that protects the autonomy of women. 

    Join us in demanding that state governors defend democracy and pass legislation that protects reproductive rights for women in their state. This isn't Gilead, this is America. Black women and women everywhere deserve better.

    Sign now and fight back!
