Our message to everyone who may need an abortion in Texas is this: Abortion funds are here to affirm that no matter what barriers you are facing, you have the right to access abortion and we will keep fighting for you. needabortion.org

Reminder that Texas is not in need of “underground” abortion networks. We have abortion funds and infrastructure in place to help Texans and they’re not underground. Please amplify the work Texans have already been doing. You can donate to our fund here: bit.ly/3mWpb8W
