Help Protect the Last Abortion Clinic in Montgomery, Alabama!
Alabamas Reproductive Health Services clinic the only abortion clinic left in Montgomery, Alabama needs your help to pay for security improvements and additional security costs.
Right now, anti-abortion extremists from across the country are descending upon this vitally needed clinic. Operation Save America (OSA) is leading national demonstrations against this clinic. Our Clinic Defense Team is on the ground in Alabama as we write, providing assistance to the clinic the entire time OSA and their out of state extremists are there. We are working with law enforcement and community activists to make sure this clinic is protected and stays open.
. . . . .
This past Saturday night Alabamas State Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore spoke at OSAs opening rally. In a few days, Matthew Trewhella, an unapologetic advocate of justifiable homicide of abortion providers, will also speak at OSAs evening rally.
Can you imagine? The Chief Justice of Alabamas highest court also a virulent opponent of same-sex marriage is an OSA featured speaker, along with a man who signed the Defensive Action petition, which supported the use of lethal force, if necessary, to stop abortion.
. . . . .
In spite of repeated legislative attacks and anti-abortion extremist harassment and intimidation this Alabama clinic and its courageous staff are standing strong and maintaining safe abortion access for women. Without clinics, there is no choice.
