They’re like, “Oh yeah, an election is happening in five weeks!” . . . As far as opposition goes, I don’t have time to worry about them, because I have been singularly focused on one thing, and that is winning on Nov. 5."

Colonialism, federal policies, & social/economic inequities continue to rob Indigenous women & birthing people of their right to determine their reproductive health and futures. On Indigenous People's Day—and every day—we must center them in the fight for reproductive justice.
Abortion was never readily available to Native Americans, thanks to a federal law that has prohibited nearly all abortions at Indian Health Service clinics since 1976. That’s always meant traveling long distances for the procedure.
We're excited to share our endorsements for this November’s elections!
