Collection: Abortion Access

France recently became the world's first country to enshrine abortion rights in its constitution.  In our country, on the other hand, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled in April that a near-total abortion ban from 1864 is enforceable. This law, which was approved before women had the right to vote, subjects anyone aiding in abortion to a two to five-year prison sentence, except if it's necessary to save the mother’s life — but not if the abortion is the result of rape or incest.  This law outlaws abortion from the moment of conception.

A woman’s right to choose is a critical issue for the November elections.  We all need to VOTE  to ensure that we elect a Democratic majority.

Let’s Create Protest together!

The assault on a woman’s right to choose continues. In the words of LA Times columnist Robin Abcarian, “Instead of cursing the coming darkness, those of us who value the equality of women have got to start building bonfires. Now.”

One way to light a fire is by speaking up with artist-designed messages. Wear Luz Rodriguez's merch messaging “defend reproductive rights,” “my body my choice, my rights,” “#MyRightMyDecision.” Teresa Villega's designs encourage us to speak out to protect abortion access.
