I was born in '57 and I've worked for reproductive rights since I was 13-years-old. Even though I expected to lose Roe, I wasn't prepared. The other day, I remember thinking that I was simply too tired to keep fighting, but I actually feel energized tonight. I may even retire earlier than I'd planned to work on RR full-time. I'm not tired, I'm pissed. And I'm ready.

(10,120 posts)And keep arguing with idiots on FB which is the worst thing to do. Why are we less than human beings? Who are THEY to decide our lives? Ive already tried to talk my daughter into moving her family to Canada, shes a nurse, theyd welcome her. If not her, then my 2 little granddaughters when they get bigger. And I will always have $ set aside in case either of them need abortion care. My girls are no ones brood mares!!

(55,301 posts)such as Same Sex Marriage, more and more groups will get energized to GOTV in Nov. Everyone will soon realize that this may be the tip of the iceberg.
