Evergreen Statement on Dobbs v. Jackson Ruling

In response to the Supreme Court’s opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson, Evergreen Action Co-Founder and Senior Advisor Sam Ricketts released the following statement:

“This illegitimate Supreme Court has zero respect for legal precedent or the core rights that Americans hold dear. Whether it's the right to bodily autonomy, safety from gun violence, or clean air, the far-right extremist Supreme Court majority is handing down dangerous decisions that will irrevocably harm millions of Americans for years to come. 

“Evergreen Action is committed to supporting our allies in the reproductive justice movement in any way possible to ensure that every American can make their own decisions about their bodies and reproductive futures. There can be no climate justice without reproductive justice. Minority rule will not stop here; this Court will go to extreme lengths to strike down central rights that belong to every American. It’s time for Democrats in Congress to take action to protect Americans’ core rights and to abolish the filibuster, codify Roe, and expand the Supreme Court.”
