ADVOCATE FOR ABORTION ACCESS IN NEBRASKA

Our freedoms are under attack.

Everyone deserves the right to decide if, when and how to become a parent. We cannot allow more restrictions to pass that stand in the way of pregnant people and the health care they need. While the Supreme Court’s decision in summer 2022 was an unprecedented stripping away of a fundamental right that has been in place for nearly five decades, abortion care remains available—although heavily restricted—in Nebraska. We will continue to do everything we can to advocate for barrier-free access to sexual and reproductive health care, including abortion access.

It’s time for bold action. It’s time for solidarity. Are you in?

HOW TO ADVOCATE

The Nebraska Legislative doesn’t get to decide our futures–we do. Use your voice to protect our freedoms and ability to control our own bodies! Now is the time to get loud. Share your perspective, expertise and experience on why making your own health care decisions without political interference is important to you. Advocate in the Nebraska Legislative, sign the petition to get the issue on the November 2024 ballot and join the movement to protect abortion access!

Email Your Senator

Email can be as simple or as detailed as you’d like. If your message includes a substantial amount of research or facts, you might consider putting your full message into a formal letter that you can attach to the email.

Write a Letter
to the Editor

Your voice matters. By writing a letter to the editor of your local newspaper, you’re helping others to relate to the issue and helping to shape public opinion. These letters can even reach elected officials!

Call Your Senator

When you call a senator’s office, you might speak with a staff member initially. It is important to share your perspective with the staff member, as they are responsible for briefing the state senator on legislative issues.

Join the
Movement

Join the collective movement, Nebraskans for Abortion Access, to protect and expand reproductive rights. The time is now to get loud and engage with local abortion rights advocacy organizations.

How to Talk about Abortion

  • Everyone has a right to decide if, when and how to become a parent.
  • Pregnant people should be able to access the health care they need without shame, unnecessary restrictions or political interference. 
  • Nebraskans don’t need more restrictions on health care. What is needed is barrier-free access to affordable health care, comprehensive sex education and access to birth control. 
  • A person’s health, not politics, should guide important medical decisions at every point in a pregnancy. 
  • We all have strongly held personal beliefs about abortion, but pregnant people should be trusted to make health care decisions on behalf of themselves and their families.
  • Nebraskans should not have to leave the state for the care they need, and politicians shouldn’t decide what is best for them.
