“Nourbese Flint is the president of All* Above All and former senior director of Black leadership and engagement at Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Under her leadership, the organization recently launched the All Action PAC, a political action committee led by women of color and focused on electing candidates who champion for abortion justice.”
“With abortion care increasingly out of reach, particularly for people working to make ends meet, this is a crucial step to ensuring that the amount of money someone has doesn’t determine their options for care. Just a few short months ago, Pennsylvania voters took to the polls to reject anti-abortion judges—this Supreme Court decision shows the power of those results,” said Nourbese Flint, president of All* Above All.
“Let’s be clear what this case is about – it’s about banning access to the most common method of abortion that people increasingly rely on for care,” said Nourbese Flint, President of All* Above All, a pro-abortion access organization, in a statement to Truthout. “For people working to make ends meet, young people, and people who live in rural areas, being able to get medication abortion via telehealth can be the difference between getting essential care or going without. As anti-abortion politicians and judges insert politics into people’s health and wellbeing, we’re committed to centering those who bear the brunt of their antics.”
“People have safely used mifepristone for early abortion care for more than 20 years—opposition to this essential medication is rooted in politics and taking away people’s freedom over their lives and futures.” –Morgan Hopkins, All* Above All president
“She did it in part because she was pressured by young, reproductive justice activists — All* Above All. A group that pressured her to take up the fight against Hyde again.” -Rebecca Traister
“[The ruling] would have a devastating impact and the harm will fall hardest on people working to make ends meet, especially people of color.” –Morgan Hopkins, president of All* Above All
“Last month marked the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe. We already see devastating consequences in its aftermath. Following decades of harmful restrictions, we are in an abortion care crisis like never before.” –Morgan Hopkins, president of All* Above All
Marking the tragic one-year anniversary of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization in which the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade, a group of progressive Democrats in the House of Representatives unveiled their latest attempt to protect abortion rights: the Abortion Justice Act.
“It really shows that the overturning of Roe [v. Wade] was not the last step in the agenda. This bill is one part of a broader agenda from anti-abortion politicians to really make care as inaccessible as possible.” –Morgan Hopkins, the president of All Above All
“We had listening sessions with our partner organizations and asked people to dream about what new, bold proactive policies would look like. What we heard became the Action Plan, and there was no one better positioned than Ayanna Pressley to turn it into federal legislation.” –Morgan Hopkins, president of All* Above All
