“Thank you for your hard work and for changing people’s lives with your compassion and dignity.”
“Thank you for risking your life for our freedom of choice.”
“Keep up the good work. As my very religious friend told me, I was against abortion until my own fifteen year old daughter became pregnant.”
“To all who work to allow me to keep that right to choose: What you do is important, empowering and fine. I chose to have an abortion because it was the right decision for me at the time. I have no regrets despite a society, which wants and expects me to hang my head with shame and question my decision. Thanks for being brave and allowing women like me to live the lives we do.”
“I am saying prayers for your safety and success.”
“My daughter is four years old. Thank you for keeping abortion legal for her when she grows up. Hopefully she will never need to choose – but if she does have an unintended pregnancy – she should have a choice.”
“Keep up the good work and don’t let them get you down. You are appreciated.”
“Thank you for your brave work for justice and freedom for women.”
“I am a recent new mom and our baby is such a joy to us. But, I would hate to see pregnancy as a jail sentence by those who do not want their babies and later see them mistreated. You have my support.”
“Every woman I know who has exercised her right to abortion made that decision with thoughtfulness, tortured consideration and integrity. All the recent talk of heroes comes into focus for me when I think of people like you who’ve been on the front line for so long. Please know you are supported not only with good thoughts and thanks but with resources, will and active determination.”
“I thank God I was given a choice in September 1973. Abortion was just legalized a few weeks earlier.”
“I wholeheartedly support all that you do.”
“I have cared for 53 foster teenagers, most of them born unwanted. I couldn’t appreciate what you are doing more!”
