WE DID A THING! Get your ear holes ready for our must-listen training sesh, Operation Save Abortion: Ballot Initiatives! November's election is creeping up, and we want to make sure YOU are geared up to protect abortion wherever you are. We’ve rallied together an all-star trifecta of folks who put in the WORK for pro-abortion ballot initiative campaigns from two of the TEN states that have abortion on their ballot, PLUS a guest from a state whose abortion amendment won last year! You're about to get ALLLLL the tea from ballot initiative experts and abobo-loving activists about how the process works, the challenges they face, and – most importantly – how YOU can plug in to help no matter where you live!
Who’s fighting the fight with us this week?
Chris Love, Spokesperson from Arizona for Abortion Access, leads the conversation on all things ballot initiative in The Grand Canyon State. Kellie Copeland, Executive Director of Abortion Forward, representing Ohio, chats with us on their AMAZING win earlier this year and delivers hope for all of the ten abobo amendments on the November ballot. AND, Karen Middleton, President of Cobalt Advocates, drops her knowledge on what’s next for Coloradans for Protecting Reproductive Freedom.
Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
