As someone involved in getting abortion protections on the ballot in Arizona, it's absolute horseshit that no national org stepped up to help this movement in Arkansas because it's a 15-week law and not 24 weeks. This shit is hard, these organizers need a lot of help at every stage. 15 weeks is way better than what the people of Arkansas are going to get in the alternative.

Thank you for your work pushing democracy forward.

A lot of the volunteers that helped for the Arkansas initiative are understandably pissed... along with everyone who signed it. Particularly after our governor called 100,000+ voters "immoral and incompetent".
