| Click here to download your �Emergency Instructions for a Supreme Court Retirement� card. If there's going to be a Supreme Court retirement this year, we'll probably hear about it in the next few weeks. We need you to be prepared � and to make sure your pro-choice friends and family are, too. |
Chances are, you haven�t been thinking about a Supreme Court retirement lately. But of course, you know that the Supreme Court is closely divided over Roe v. Wade. If one of the Justices who support Roe retires, the anti-choice movement is ready to strike.
Consider this: when Michigan passed a complete ban on legal abortion just weeks ago, it set in motion a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade. We�ve seen this same strategy used by opponents of a woman�s right to choose in legislatures across the country. Even Congress passed � and President Bush signed � an unconstitutional abortion ban with the hope that it comes before a Supreme Court sympathetic to their cause. We can�t let this happen.
The Supreme Court will end its 2003-04 term within the next few weeks, so this is the time of year retirements are often announced. We need you � and all pro-choice Americans � to be prepared for immediate action the minute a Supreme Court Justice retires so that we can get the best possible jump on the far-right forces who will try to seize the opportunity.
We�ve got just the tool for you: our wallet-sized "Emergency Instructions for a Supreme Court Retirement" card. Simply print, cut and fold the card, and keep it in your wallet. The minute you hear that a Supreme Court Justice is retiring, you�ll be ready for action, wherever you are.
It�s really as simple as that. When the time comes, it will only take a few minutes to start the fight to protect the Supreme Court from President Bush and his allies in Congress. Print one for yourself. Forward this message. Print one for a friend. Click here to get started.
Thank you for all you do,
