You may know that January 22, 2008 is the 35th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, which gave women the right to control their own reproductive lives.

Every year, North Carolina NOW takes the centerfold of the Independent weekly newspaper. We print columns of names of people across NC who support women’s reproductive rights. This commemorates Roe v. Wade, and also raises money for our lobbyist here in North Carolina.

The signature ad is significant for many reasons.
 It shows that large numbers of people, across the state, support the issue.
 Copies of the ad are distributed each year to all legislators, so they do not forget that there is a large pro-choice contingent.
 It provides a simple way for large numbers of people to be involved and show their support.

Want to do one thing? Sign yourself up and/or make a donation. Want to do more? Share this information with friends and family that feel as you do. Explain how the ad benefits all women in North Carolina to those who may be hesitant to sign on if the publication does not appear in their local paper.

Thank you so much for supporting NC NOW and helping all pro-choice women retain their reproductive rights.
