We ALL have a right to abortion – without barriers, stigma, or government interference. As the U.S. Supreme Court and anti-abortion politicians move to strip millions of people of the fundamental right to abortion, New Jersey can and must meet this moment with action. Lawmakers must pass legislation expanding abortion access for all. Here are some ways you can join the fight for abortion access in New Jersey and beyond.

Ways to Take Action

Send a Message to Your Elected Officials

Tell your state leaders: We need abortion access for all, and we won’t accept anything less. Send a message.

Hi, my name is <YOUR NAME.> I am a New Jersey resident and I am calling to urge <Senate President Scutari/Assembly Speaker Coughlin> to expand abortion access for all. As the U.S. Supreme Court and anti-abortion politicians move to strip millions of people of the fundamental right to abortion, New Jersey can and must meet this moment with action. Here in New Jersey, the right to abortion is still a right in name only for far too many people, including low-income, undocumented, and under- and un-insured people. Please do everything in your power to remove financial barriers to abortion care and expand abortion access for all.
