Missourians for Constitutional Freedom, the PAC gathering signatures for an initiative to place women’s reproductive rights, women’s health care, and access to abortion on the ballot, and their allies held volunteer training, petition signings, and rallies across locations in Missouri Tuesday evening.
Hartzell Gray acted as the master of ceremonies for the Kansas City rally.
.
I believe that we will win.
Hartzell Gray’s introduction:
.
Listen. To. The. Whole. Thing.
At the conclusion of the rally:
.
Hartzell Gray: ….We realize that the task ahead may appear a bit daunting. However, this room has the most important role in this campaign. You are the hearts and the soul of this campaign. You represent the majority of us. Don’t get that twisted. When they say a bunch of nonsense, no, this is a majority of us. [applause] And by the way, a super majority of the state population that knows that abortion care is health care and health care is a human right. [applause] We know that we are stronger together. We are stronger than the anti-abortion politicians, the ghouls, in Jeff City. They fought us at every step. Because they’re scared. They don’t want this smoke. [voices: “um, hum.” “Right.”] Thay are scared of what the people in this room and of what the people at the ballot box are going to do. Not what we can do, what we are going to do. [applause] They are scared of our power….

abortion, Dr. Iman Alsaden, initiative, Kansas City, missouri, Missourians for Constitutional Freedom, Planned Parenthood Great Plains, pro-choice, rally, women's health care, women's reproductive health
Missourians for Constitutional Freedom, the PAC gathering signatures for an initiative to place women’s reproductive rights, women’s health care, and access to abortion on the ballot, and their allies held volunteer training, petition signings, and rallies across locations in Missouri Tuesday evening.
Dr. Iman Alsaden, Chief Medical Officer of Planned Parenthood – Great Plains, spoke at the evening rally in Kansas City.
Dr. Iman Alsaden: …I became an abortion provider to listen to and trust patients, to help ensure that they have the space to be held when the world has told them they are wrong, when the world has told them they are mad, and when they have limited options to receive excellent medical care.
[….]
…I have witnessed continued attacks on our rights, followed by the complete loss of abortion access here in Missouri. It’s devastating to see firsthand how abortion bans have gotten in the way of people’s ability to get the care that they need when they need it.
And now I watch every day as anti-abortion politicians and protesters try to tell patients what is right for them and what is good for them when in fact they are endangering the lives of these patients.
Because of Missouri’s abortion bans I often see patients in our Kansas health centers who have had to travel hours, take time of off work, find childcare to access the health care that should be available to them within their own communities, where they call home. And those people who can make it to a health center in a state like, and those are people who can actually make it to a health center in a state like Kansas. Because for every patient I do see I think of those who couldn’t overcome the physical or financial burden to reach the care that they need.
These are people who cannot get what they need at home, in their communities. People who can’t confide in a neighbor or a friend in a time of need due to the fear of prosecution or retribution. Now, it’s time to change that.
As a state we are living the reality of the ripple effect of abortion bans. We know that when abortion is inaccessible the health and well-being of all people suffers. Pregnant people get sicker when all health care options are not available to them. Our home here in Missouri has become a scary place, a dangerous place. Made so by politicians who think they know better than we do, who think their beliefs should control our futures.
In a country with expert comprehensive health care this devastating reality does not have to be our future.
Every person, everyone, deserves the freedom to make their own decisions, right here, at home. Where we live. Without the interference of politicians. And everyone has always deserved that.
[….]

Missourians for Constitutional Freedom, the PAC gathering signatures for an initiative to place women’s reproductive rights, women’s health care, and access to abortion on the ballot, and their allies held volunteer training, petition signings, and rallies across locations in Missouri yesterday evening.
Rabbi Doug Alpert, Congregation Kol Ami, spoke at the evening rally in Kansas City.
Rabbi Doug Alpert: ….Being in this space, being space with really good people is what keeps me sane during insane times. But most of all, being here tonight gives me hope. It is good to be, be together tonight, this evening, to work for justice, for abortion access, and freedom for patients to make their own decisions about health care, about pregnancy, abortion, birth control, and life-saving decisions around miscarriage care and pregnancy complications. [applause]

…I had the honor of speaking at the Kansas City version of the Women’s March back in twenty-seventeen, representing the Jewish community. I can’t believe since twenty-seventeen. It is a marathon and not a sprint, isn’t it? [voices: “Yeah.”] Isaid back then that it would be women, those that led us in the march, who are gonna lead us out of this mess we are in and lead us to a more just and free State of Missouri and a more just a free country. I haven’t changed my mind about that since then….
