Support women’s rights
The Santa Fe Branch NAACP supports a woman’s right to make her own reproductive decisions. Abortions are now banned in more than a dozen states including some that make no exceptions for rape, incest, or fetal abnormalities. Abortion is protected in New Mexico; let’s keep it that way!
