A Moment in Time: Access to Reproductive Care

Dear all,

I believe that all people should have access to reproductive care.

I believe that a person should have full autonomy over her or his body.

I believe that life begins as birth (a belief codified in Judaism).

I believe that a woman should not be forced to sit on trial to defend her reproductive needs.

I believe that all families (like mine) who are not able to have children in a conventional way should be afforded every possibility that medical science can allow.

Our Supreme Court challenged these core beliefs, and for the first time in our nation’s history, freedoms were taken away.

So when we read our Declaration of Independence this 4th of July, we stand firm with regard to self-evident truths: we all deserve equality, namely – Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

This is a pivotal moment in time for our country, and we are not spectators. This is about us. This is about you. This is about our core values and beliefs. This is about principles, not politics. This is about freedom. This is about liberty. This is about justice.

With love and Shalom,
