we have officially launched her bold move florida!!!!
Here’s why:
We are an official partner organization working with the Florida Women's Freedom Coalition. This committee has been raising the necessary dollars to (successfully!) fund the petition drive to get more than 891,000 valid signatures. Now they are working to fund voter outreach efforts and the legal fees associated with defending the amendment against the Florida GOP. Every dollar we raise for Her Bold Move Florida is sent directly to FWFC and is used to fund this fight.
While Her Bold Move is a national organization working to support pro-choice women candidates up and down the ballot (especially in states with abortion bans), we’ve been proud to extend support to ballot initiatives across the country. We’re excited to say that this is just the beginning.
According to our partners in Florida, here are the next steps:
Step 1: We will need to help raise funds for research, polling, and, importantly, legal fees, as the Florida GOP has assured us that they will wage a bitter legal war against this initiative. Your support today will help us defend against these attacks and map out the path to victory.
Step 2: Once the measure is on the ballot, it will require support from at least 60% of voters. Recent similar ballot measures have shown us that when abortion is on the ballot, voters show up to defend their rights. But turning out 60% of voters will be a challenge. We need to help launch a massive field program to ensure that voters are informed, engaged, and committed to casting their ballots in November.
We need all hands on deck to pull this off. Are you ready to help us make history?
