Dems campaign off Roe overturn, raise more than $80M

Over $80 million has been fundraised by Democrats and groups one week after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, an impressive fundraising haul that comes just ahead of the November midterms, The Associated Press reported.

That digital fundraising platform ActBlue recorded those numbers, which found that within the first 24 hours of the decision being announced, $20 million had been raised alone, the news outlet noted.

Last week, the Supreme Court eliminated the constitutional right to an abortion, a decision that was celebrated by conservatives while it was blasted by Democrats.

The ruling has led a patchwork of states to begin rolling back access to abortion – now requiring girls and women to cross state lines to receive the medical procedure.

Denying women healthcare for a medical procedure.

Keep it stirred up. I think there's a lot of appetite for it.

18 years, likely longer. I’m pretty sure anger over Dobbs can last 4 months.
