Planned Parenthood launched a new campaign Thursday targeting voters before the midterm elections.

The enterprise, dubbed “Unstoppable,” includes a “manifesto” detailing a platform that includes a commitment to abortion access.

“We must have the freedom to decide for ourselves whether and when to have children. This includes access to abortion. It’s not up to politicians, corporations, pharmacists, college presidents, or insurers to decide,” the mission statement reads. “The Trump-Pence administration has worked to restrict access to abortion, undermined birth control access by allowing virtually any employer to refuse to provide coverage for birth control based on a religious or moral objection, and tried to block people from getting care at Planned Parenthood health centers.”


The manifesto also says health care is a “human right” and states its dedication to access to birth control, equal pay for women, paid family leave, and combating racism, sexism, sexual harassment, homophobia, and transphobia. Supporters are invited to sign it and share it on social media, as well as buy t-shirts and donate to Planned Parenthood.

In a video for the campaign, which boasted a soundtrack by Sia and a cameo by Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik, the nation’s largest abortion provider claimed that 71 percent of Americans support the Supreme Court’s 1973 ruling in Roe. v. Wade, which legalized abortion nationwide. But a May Gallup poll found that only six in ten Americans support the court’s decision, and a mere 28 percent support access to abortions in the second trimester of pregnancy.

Republicans in Congress have floated stripping Planned Parenthood of the approximately $500 million in taxpayer money it receives annually, but so far that threat has been toothless, as March’s omnibus spending bill continued to include the funding.
