Support the First State Abortion Fund

We all know that the sisters, wives, daughters and granddaughters of Supreme Court Justices and US Senators will always have all the access to abortions and whatever reproductive health care they need.  Row v. Wade was not overturned to stop wealthy people from getting abortions.  It was overturned to beat up on poor people. Full stop.

WILMINGTON — In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s devastating ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade and strip Americans of their fundamental right to abortion, reproductive rights advocates announced they have launched the First State Abortion Fund. The Fund, which operates under a reproductive justice framework, is the first abortion fund in Delaware and its mission will be to provide support for people who need access to abortion, including costs for the procedure, childcare, and transportation costs.

“Millions of people lost a fundamental human right when the U.S. Supreme Court issued its ruling,” said Sen. Kyle Evans Gay. “While Delaware has wisely protected abortion access in state law, lack of resources continues to be a barrier for far too many people seeking abortions. The First State Abortion Fund will bridge the gap for low-income people to ensure they are able to obtain the medical care they deserve.”
