Hi john,
Today would have been the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, and as we recognize that, we write today to let you know we are committed more than ever to do better for you than Roe.
The year 2024 means getting out there with our partners, getting into some good trouble, and expanding abortion access like never before!
Three photos from the March for Life, taken by Zach D. Roberts, photojournalist, made into a collage. Top Left: photo of a press conference outside, anti-abortion signs stuck in the ground surrounded by snow, with one speaker in front of a banner that reads, ''RESPECT EXISTENCE OR EXPECT RESISTENCE'', with two people holding the sides of the banner. Top Right: Photo of a white truck with a three-screen monitor mounted in the truck bed; the digital image on the right side screen says, ''VOTE PRO-LIFE FIRST!'' over an image of a newborn baby, left side screen with the text, ''MAKE AMERICA PRO-LIFE AGAIN''. Bottom image: photo of Patriot Front members, waving multiple flags and holding a banner with the PAtriot Front motto, ''STRONG FAMILIES MAKE STRONG NATIONS'', standing in the snow with th eWashington Monument in the background.

Anti-abortion extremists and grifters spent the weekend marching around Washington in a circle jerk of unearned celebration (play-by-play of their BS is covered on our latest episode of Feminist Buzzkills [[link removed]] ) , everyday, AAF keeps our ears to the ground so we can bring you the latest, greatest, and hatest in abortion news!
HIGHLIGHTS!
MAINE: WON’T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE MEN?!
Abortion Access Front would like to offer an official apology for not advocating for the truly oppressed people when it comes to reproductive access- THE MEN. Thank you to Sen. Lisa Keim for standing her ground and refusing to vote for a bill to add the right to an abortion to the Maine state constitution [[link removed]] because it doesn’t focus more on men ! What would we do without Lisa’s revolutionary perspective?
Square, black graphic with the text in red at the top, ''WHAT THE FUCK!'' Below text is a red square dialogue box with the words in white, ''A CHILD IN THE MOTHER'S WOMB ALSO BELONGS TO THE FATHER.'' Below dialogue box in white text, '' - Senator Lisa Kein R-Oxford'', next to a photo of Lisa Keim [[link removed]]
MINNESOTA: YOU DO YOU, CONSTITUTIONALLY
Life is about balance, so we want to bring you the bad AND the good, and we’re stanning our friends in Minnesota who are adding provisions to their equal rights amendment to protect people seeking abortions AND gender-affirming care [[link removed]] ! If the amendment is approved, voters could see it on their ballots as soon as this fall, and boy do we love seeing states proactively protect and expand abortion care.
Want to know what YOU can do to make your community more abortion-positive? Check out our Activist Calendar below and find an event today!
