Some of our elected official champions have docketed resolutions and actions that will continue to advance San Diego’s position as a safe and welcoming place for reproductive freedom. These actions will be up for vote this Tuesday, May 24th and we need to show our support.
Here’s how you can act:
If you live in San Diego County submit an e-comment in support of item 24 on the agenda. You can just state your support for the item, or you can go into detail about why you support the item.
Item 24 is a change letter that would direct the County to develop a comprehensive understanding of the scope of reproductive health care services offered by the County AND to advocate for regulatory, budgetary, and legislative efforts to support full access to reproductive health care.
If you live in San Diego County submit an e-comment in support of item 25 on the agenda. You can just state your support for the item, or you can go into detail about why you support the item.
Item 25 is a resolution that calls on the State of California to enshrine the right to choose into California’s Constitution.
If you live or work in either San Diego County District 2 or District 5, call your Supervisor and let them know you support Items 24 and 25 on Tuesday’s docket.
Script: “My name is _____ and I’m a constituent. I’m urging Supervisor Anderson/Desmond to support Items 24 & 25 on Tuesday’s docket because I support full access to sexual and reproductive healthcare and that includes abortion.”
District 2 – Supervisor Joel Anderson – 619-531-5522
District 5 – Supervisor Jim Desmond – 619-531-5555

If you live within the City of San Diego (any district) submit an e-comment in support of item S504 (the letter S, the number 504) on the agenda. You can just state your support for the item, or you can go into detail about why you support the item.
Item S504 is a resolution declaring San Diego a safe city for reproductive freedom and access to abortion.
Regardless of where you live, join us for a press conference at San Diego City Hall on Tuesday, May 24th at 9:00 a.m. to show your support for the City of San Diego’s resolution declaring San Diego a safe city for reproductive freedom and access to abortion.
While these actions alone are not enough to protect bodily autonomy for millions of Americans, it is an important step we can take today to stand up for abortion access here in San Diego County.
