Women’s Rights Are Human Rights
Despite the major leaps in civil and political rights, there is still more we as a nation can do. Today, gender equality and reproductive freedom are under siege from radical partisans who seek to strip women across this nation of their right to choose or their right to be free and gain economic opportunity. Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare. Freedom is a fundamental American value – a woman’s right to choose is sacred. Every American should be guaranteed the right to make their own choices about their bodies. The Equal Rights Amendment is long overdue. We need to ensure political, economic, and social equality for all women. That means:
- Codifying Roe v. Wade into law.
- Ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment.
- Making quality, affordable childcare a reality for working families.
- Ensuring that both men and women feel safe reporting cases of sexual harassment or assault and guaranteeing that all survivors of sexual assault regardless of gender have access to legal and mental health resources.
- Guaranteeing a woman’s right to privacy in a choice between only themselves, their partners, and their doctor.
- Improving the access to and quality of postpartum care.
- Guaranteeing the right to reproductive care while also enacting common-sense late-term abortion restrictions.
- Ensuring unrestricted access to contraception without the influence of clergy members, employers, or protestors.
- De-stigmatizing men’s health and sexual assault.
- Ending campus sexual assault.
- Enacting universal childcare & pre-K for all.
- Guaranteeing up to 12 weeks of paid leave for all.
- Becoming a leader in women’s rights around the globe.
