Never again! Today, May 31, marks the second anniversary of the assassination of Dr. George Tiller in Wichita, KS.

More murderous harassment of abortion providers is on the way, so don't get complacent! Against the backdrop of a wave of anti-abortion legislative assaults, Operation Rescue has announced plans for a "Summer of Mercy 2.0" targeting the brave and outspoken abortion provider Dr. LeRoy Carhart in Germantown, MD July 30-August 7. This organization is the same group that hounded Dr. George Tiller in Wichita, KS, for years (until he was assassinated by one of their associates in May '09). Their original "Summer of Mercy" in 1991 shut down access to the Dr. Tiller's clinic for six weeks and resulted in 3,400 arrests, a very alarming history to invoke.

Join with others to mount a serious and determined showing of public support for Dr. Carhart and the Germantown, MD, clinic whose practice he has joined.

Only 40 minutes from Washington, Operation Rescue’s targeting of this clinic in Germantown is an important opportunity to dramatically shift the dialogue over abortion rights. Rather than accept compromises that leave us with less and less ground to stand on, let’s show the national media and politicians a strong pro-choice presence on the streets.

Defend abortion providers! without them there is NO reproductive freedom!
