Voters statewide support access to abortion. This includes parts of Georgia that media don’t always show, like Athens, Macon, and Savannah. We must change the narrative through actively working to educate, inform, and make systemic change so that our laws accurately represent the needs and wants of ALL Georgians.
More polling info: tinyurl.com/GaReproPolling
Despite common assumptions due to the actions of our legislators, most Georgians view abortion as an important issue to protect. It is necessary that we make our voices heard at and outside the polls to ensure that our laws properly reflect our views.
More polling information available here : tinyurl.com/GaReproPolling
More than half of surveyed Georgians believe in access to safe abortion care. So why should our legislators have the right to infringe upon the autonomy of the majority?

Did you know the majority of surveyed Georgians support access to abortion AND trust that families should be in charge of their reproductive decisions, not the government?
Find more information from this polling here : tinyurl.com/GaReproPolling
Reminder: The US Supreme Court has yet to make an official decision in the much-anticipated case, Idaho and Moyle, et al. v. United States, which concerns pregnant people’s ability to get life-saving abortion care in medical emergencies. We need the court to firmly and permanently uphold EMTALA—but what if they don’t? Learn how the outcome may impact people in Georgia and nationwide. Given the circumstances, it’s essential to stay informed and engaged, to foster a community that upholds reproductive justice regardless of any court’s decisions! 💜
Seen the news? We recently put up reproductive freedom artwork around Georgia because a majority of Georgians agree: everyone should decide if, when, and how they grow their families. No one should face jail time for abortion care. And political interference in our reproductive healthcare is NOT welcome!
4 in 5 Georgia voters say the government shouldn't interfere in abortion decisions. Abortion bans simply aren't a Georgia value. Georgians of every color, creed and income level want reproductive freedom, but the powerful few try to divide us — a distraction while they underfund our hospitals, schools, and childcare for personal gain.
Support for reproductive freedom is stronger than ever across Georgia. Share this to enlighten others!
A Megaphone for YOUR Demands
Amplify GA is a campaign working to protect and expand abortion access in Georgia cities. By acting as a megaphone for your demands, we are building our political power.
Amplify is the collective effort of immigrants and refugees, people of faith, Black, Latinx and Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities, LGBTQ folks and more.
We believe everyone should have the ability to access safe, affordable and culturally sensitive reproductive care. People should have the autonomy and access to resources to plan and create the families they want free from over-policing and state violence.
