on this issue. In spite the packing of SCOTUS with extremist RW agents, this is ours to win.

None of the many rights groups have been able to draw us together a fraction as well as the religioius male-dominated Republican Party and its agents on the high court. Nothing like fear to make people finally pay attention.

But resistance has to be focused, against those actually trying to take away our rights. Many men are on our side in this, including many conservative men. They don't just support the rights of women they care about but also have reproductive rights of their own to protect.
