Expressing support for Reproductive Justice on the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America.
This resolution expresses support for reproductive justice as the United States approaches its 250th anniversary. It defines reproductive justice as the right to have children, not have children, and raise them in safe communities, emphasizing that these rights should not depend on race, income, or location. The document calls for policies that ensure universal access to comprehensive healthcare, including abortion and contraception, while condemning the criminalization of pregnancy outcomes and forced sterilization. Additionally, it advocates for universal paid family leave, affordable childcare, and medically accurate sex education to support families. Ultimately, the resolution frames reproductive freedom as a fundamental human right and a cornerstone of democracy rather than a privilege.
