Why Young Men Who Support Reproductive Justice Need to Get Out and Vote

Will men defy the polls and pundits, and vote as an act of solidarity with the women they love, respect and support?

This is for the men—of all ethnic, racial and religious identities—who say they support women’s rights and reproductive justice, and nod in agreement when women say “my body, my choice.”

This is not for the men who—based on whatever reasons of religious or secular morality—believe the state should use its coercive power to force women and girls to give birth against their will.

This is for the men who say it’s not right that politicians insert themselves into the most intimate decisions that should be left to a woman, her loved ones and her doctor.

This is for the men who were raised by mothers who faced the fear of having an unintended pregnancy before Roe v. Wade, and who vowed that their children and grandchildren would never be subjected to that dangerous and traumatic experience.

. . . . . . .
This is for the men who want to get this right and get to the polls.
