Dear Supreme Court,

Soon, the Supreme Court will be hearing oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, a case determining whether Mississippi and other states can ban abortion as early as 15 weeks. The outcome of this case could drastically change abortion laws across the country, unleashing even more restrictions than the thousands we’ve already faced over the past decade. 

We’ve had abortions—we know what it is to make decisions about growing our families. We deserve to be trusted and loved. We deserve equitable access to abortion care, no matter who we are, where we live, how much money we have, who we love, how old we are, or when we need care.

We already have to travel long distances for multiple appointments, endure unnecessary ultrasounds and sit through lies and misinformation about abortion, and figure out how to take time off, arrange childcare, and pay for our abortions because our insurance is barred from covering it, and even get permission from a judge. Navigating the current set of restrictions on abortion is already a challenge, especially for those of us who are Black and Brown, indigenous, queer and trans, young people, disabled, immigrants and refugees, incarcerated, rely on Medicaid insurance, and/or are paid low-wages.

Access to abortion is already too hard for too many.

Enough is enough!

The Supreme Court needs to hear our stories. We submitted an amicus brief to the Supreme Court written by people who’ve had abortions. This is our time to speak up and speak out.

We’re telling the Supreme Court:

• We deserve access to abortion care—free of shame, stigma, and misinformation.

• We deserve abortion experiences centered in love and support.

• We won’t remain silent as this Court guts abortion access.

It’s time to listen to people who have abortions!

Sign your name to support the Abortion Stories Brief and demand the Supreme Court protect abortion access in Mississippi and beyond!

We deserve Justices who respect our stories and Constitution.
