2024 was a rough year for women across our nation. Since the fall of Roe v. Wade in June of 2022, states are attacking abortion rights through various types of bans, including 13 total bans. Worse, states are looking for creative ways to restrict women's access to abortion services. 6 states introduced legistlation to criminalize abortion for women or providers. 15 bills were introduced across 8 states that targeted regulation of abortion providers. 13 bills have been enacted so far out of 54 bills introduced across 20 states to fund 'Crisis Pregnancy Centers.'
We know laws like this hurt pregnant patients, anyone who menstruates, and families. And we know that they disproportionately affect historically non-dominate communities and those in the global majority. These attacks and ongoing threats are why it's critical to have women - and diverse women - in public office. Our lived experiences, our knowledge, and our expertise are not only valuable but also necessary. And those pieces are still missing from the tables of decision-makers.
Through all of this, we have persisted. We kept going. We continued to build the pipeline for women candidates to run and WIN in the years to come! And nothing has deterred us from necessary work ahead, but we need YOUR support to do it!
Cheers to a women-powered '25!
