Happy Friday, supporters of NARAL Pro-Choice Washington!
Welcome to the Friday Femorandum, our weekly roundup of reproductive rights news, sent to your inbox every Friday morning from the communications staff at NARAL Pro-Choice Washington. You probably noticed that it’s not the morning, and for this the Femorandum apologizes. What a week we’ve had! Between #GiveBIG on Tuesday and our Power of Choice event last night, it’s been all systems go all the time at NARAL this week.
But although it might stop us from sending it on time, it won’t ever stop us from sending you the Femorandum! Reproductive health news still happens, and we still can’t resist reporting it to you. As we recover from our exhausting, exciting, magical week, here’s what’s on our radar.
At last night’s Power of Choice Awards, Dr. Caroline Heldman wowed us with an inspiring keynote speech on the growing anti-rape movement on college campuses and the importance of electing pro-choice leaders, and we celebrated longtime volunteer Lorie Lucky and pro-choice champions Rep. Eileen Cody & Sen. Steve Hobbs.
