On point as usual! I am grateful that up in Canada, while we have our own issues, this isn't one of them of regressing women backwards.

So well said. Too many have fought and bled and died for us to go backwards. We cannot and will not go back! Thank you for writing about this.

We all work together to shine a light in whatever way we can to move forward, not back. I’ll see you at the polls and hopefully at the debate this week. Xo

This is such a well written piece. Thanks so much for highlighting how much is at stake now. I can’t believe we are still fighting for women’s rights in 2024.

Thank you for your support. It’s not a female issue. It’s a human issue. When women are treated equal and fairly, the tide rises for us all. Let’s not forget our daughters become the women facing these issues.

Into my adulthood I remember those back alley abortions that were preformed in secret and shame. My generation fought long and hard for the right to have an abortion. Unless we vote in favor of those who will protect individual rights I fear we will loose much more than our right to choose.

Our right to read banned books, our right not to be taught the Bible in schools, our right not to have the 10 commandments hung in our classrooms and the right of families to make decisions with their doctors how to treat young LGBTQ.

Your fight has just begun.

Yes we have so much at stake. So much worth fighting for. Thank you for your fight and for your perspective.
