<div>Here in Savannah, Georgia, we stand at a crossroad between a future where every woman has the right to make decisions about her own body, or one where her body is controlled by extreme politicians and government officials.We know that abortion bans don’t stop abortions; they stop safe abortions. Without access, women in our community will die. Women in my own life—those I’ve hugged and shared meals with this year—could have faced tragic outcomes if they had been denied immediate emergency care like fellow Georgians Amber Nicole Thurman and Candi Miller, who lost their lives because of Trump’s overturn of Roe.And let’s be clear: abortion bans disproportionately hurt low-income women. In Savannah, the poverty rate for women is a staggering 22.1%, well above the state and national averages. Denying these women – our neighbors – access to safe abortion care only deepens their struggle, forcing them to choose between their health, their families, and their economic well-being. Trump’s and extreme MAGA Republicans’ extreme Project 2025 agenda for a second term includes a national abortion ban, criminalization of abortion care, and threatening access to contraception and IVF. This not only strips us of freedoms, and puts our health at risk, but it exacerbates existing economic inequalities right here in our town.Reproductive freedom isn’t just about politics; it’s about our lives. Electing Kamala Harris is a crucial step in protecting our collective and economic future. </div>
