ACLU Supporter–
We have a concerning update: We were just blocked multiple times from displaying an abortion rights billboard in Times Square, New York.
With attacks on abortion and reproductive rights at an all-time high, we’re partnering with groups like the Don’t Ban Equality coalition to raise awareness about the widespread opposition to abortion restrictions. But the coalition’s billboard was repeatedly blocked for being too “political.”
At the ACLU, we know abortion is essential care that shouldn’t be politicized. It’s healthcare – a personal and important decision that every individual must make for themselves. That’s why the ACLU won’t stop fighting for our reproductive freedom – and why we’ll continue amplifying impacted people’s stories and fighting the anti-abortion movement in the months ahead. If you’re with us, will you donate now to help us keep showing up where it counts?
Across the country, anti-abortion politicians are attempting to censor vital information about reproductive health care, and now billboard companies in New York City are following suit. This isn’t just about taking away an individual’s ability to make personal medical decisions. It’s about erasing our stories, rolling back our rights, and preventing activists and doctors from sharing vital – and lifesaving – information.
But we won’t ever stop showing up for our rights – wherever our reproductive freedom is under attack.
We have big plans to take our message for reproductive freedom nationwide ahead of this year’s election – including community events in battleground states – but we need your help to get the word out and make these plans possible.
Thank you,
