Emerge alums are on the frontline in the fight to protect reproductive rights for millions of people in Arizona.

➡️ Governor Katie Hobbs signed a bill to repeal an 1864 Civil War-era abortion ban enforced by the Arizona Supreme Court earlier this year.

➡️ State Senator Eva Burch spoke about her intention to terminate her non-viable pregnancy. In a moving speech, she highlighted how the restrictive and dangerous laws passed over the years are impacting women like her across the state.

➡️ State Senator Priya Sundareshan is leading the effort to flip the Arizona State Legislature from red to blue to ensure they can protect the right to abortion.

Abortion is on the ballot in November and Emerge is committed to recruiting and training more Democratic women to join the frontline with Gov. Hobbs, Sen. Burch, and Sen. Sundareshan!

Will you contribute $10 or more to help recruit and train more Democratic women in Arizona to ensure we protect the right to abortion in November and beyond?

Let’s elect more Democratic women,

Team Emerge
