I created a post after I got a text on Thursday.
Here's the text

It's official: We're marching to defend our abortion rights and reproductive freedom on October 2.

Pledge to March with us right now: bit.ly/3jH3OWQ

After the Supreme Court rejected an emergency request to block Texas' 6-week abortion ban and threatens Roe v. Wade, we must make it clear to anti-choice extremists that we will not stand by quietly as they attempt to control our bodies.

On October 2, Women's March and over 90 partner organizations are marching in every single state ahead of the Supreme Court reconvening on October 4.

This is your fight. This is our fight. Take the pledge to march with us on October 2: bit.ly/3jH3OWQ

From the Women's March, October 2nd Action, pledge to mobilize
Text “MARCH” to 44310 for urgent action alerts & updates from Women’s March.

PLEDGE TO MOBILIZE: DEFEND OUR REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS

On October 2, we're marching in every single state ahead of the Supreme Court reconvening on October 4. Women's March and more than 90 other organizations, including National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, Planned Parenthood, SHERO Mississippi, Mississippi in Action, Access Reproductive Care-Southeast, The Frontline, Working Families Party, and SisterSong, are organizing a national call to mobilize and defend our reproductive rights.

Abortion has never been fully accessible, but we are at the risk of losing our reproductive freedom completely. The call to action is clear, and urgent. The relentless attacks from Texas to Mississippi are ramping up quickly. Anti-choice extremists have a deep desire to return to a time when there was more clear and effective domination and control over queer and trans folks, women, and people of color; they want to revive those old values and societal norms to the point of re-acceptance. The authoritarian agenda of reproductive control is fueled by misogyny and racism - and we must challenge it, together.

On October 2, we’re going to send the Supreme Court and lawmakers across the country a clear, unified message. The attack on our reproductive rights will not be tolerated.

We have this opportunity to invite all the people that know us and love us into this important movement and work united as we build something better for our families and communities. As a small powerful group tries to come for our human rights over and over again, we’ll never let go of our vision of reproductive justice; for unfettered abortion access and everything we need to support and grow our families to thrive and live healthy lives.
