Happy Birthday to Roe…

Today marks the 32nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
Hopefully you have some kickass events planned for the day, however, if Thursday’s festivities left you feeling like you have little left to celebrate, then take a moment to reflect on what you’re willing to do to for the reproductive rights movement.
Whether it’s a commitment to start escorting at your local abortion clinic, writing a quick email to Congress, taking a pro-choice picture, making a donation, or posting on BushvChoice–just get busy.
Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, encourages that: “We need to talk to neighbors around the kitchen table about the values of freedom and privacy; we don’t run away from the arguments. Our movement is on stronger ground when we take seriously the moral dimensions of the issue.”
And keep faith–Vicki Saporta, president of the National Abortion Federation, explained to the NY Times that her fears about future judicial appointments “were tempered by polls indicating most Americans don’t want Roe v. Wade overturned.”
Regardless, we won’t go back–so right-wing America better get ready for a fight.
