Solidarity!

Our Body, Our Choice!
Do you want to support LGBTQ+ rights?

Do you want to support body integrity?

Our Body, Our Choice!

This is a boycott not of a company but of states.

It is simply this… all you college graduates, all you new doctors, all those looking for a new job just don’t look for jobs in states that deny body integrity. It is as simple as that.

Already without the boycott the states are feeling the pinch. The legislators don’t but the businesses do.
Texas Companies Say Republicans Are Ruining Their Business

A coalition of Texas businesses have said ambiguity over abortion bans in the Lone Star State is making recruitment harder, following the near all-out ban enacted by Republicans.

An amicus brief originally filed by law firm Reed Smith and signed by 40 Texas companies was filed in support of 22 women who are suing the state of Texas over its abortion laws. Numerous businesses have endorsed the letter. These include dating platforms such as Bumble and Match Group (owner of Match.com and Tinder); prominent advertising agencies Preacher and GSD&M; event organizers SXSW; and the United States Women's Chamber of Commerce, along with various Texas real-estate companies, law firms, and restaurant groups.

The companies say that Texas abortion laws render the state less appealing for families considering relocating to a place where they can comfortably start a family. The Texas Legislature, dominated by Republican representatives, passed a trigger law on abortion in 2021. It is currently illegal to have an abortion after a fetus has a heartbeat, which typically occurs around six weeks, often before the woman knows she is pregnant, unless there is a significant threat to the mother's life. The overturning of Roe vs. Wade by the Supreme Court in 2022 gave states the power to limit abortion access.
They are worried.

They already instructed their candidates not to talk about abortion… zip your lips.

Businesses are getting nervous, the best and brightest don’t want to go to those states. Medical students are thinking twice in going to states that want to control what they can say, what medical procedures they can learn, they want to tell you what books you can read, they want to tell you who you can love!

If you want to help us keep our freedom, do not apply to any company in those states. If you are a med student do n ot intern in those states, get a complete education and not one the states want to only learn. If you are going to be a student teacher don’t look in those states.

Our Body, Our Choice!

Vote Blue and save a life.
