Over 500 people joined the #ROEAct coalition, @ewarren and @EdMarkey to fight back and demand progress for reproductive freedom in Massachusetts.
This is what democracy looks like.
It's almost as if thousands of people in Massachusetts care about equitable abortion access 🤔
We did not come to play.
Pass the #ROEAct.
500+ people made their voices heard at tonight’s rally with @EdMarkey and @ewarren. And they made it clear that we must pass the #ROEAct now.

We had a robust postcarding program to pass the Reproductive Privacy Act - more than 20,0000 cards. Great way to engage volunteers and generate calls. We also did a big GOTV voter ed push last month - more than 10k.
@KTravisBallie I am pretty sure @WomanProjectHQ did a lot of postcards in RI a few years back. We also have groups that have done postcards re: ROE Act.
