Pro-Choice Signature Ad - Please Sign on!

Jan 22, 2013 marks the FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY of the Roe v. Wade decision, which gave women control over their reproductive health and lives.

Every year, NC NOW runs a pro-choice signature ad in the centerfold of the Independent (Triangle weekly periodical) to commemorate the anniversary. We list columns of names of people who live in NC and are proudly pro-choice. We deliver copies of the signature ad to all of our NC Senators and members in the NC House of Representatives. You can support this ad by including your name and with a donation. The ad serves many purposes - shows people proud of being pro-choice, shows legislators that there is a lot of support for Roe, and it is also NC NOW's main fundraiser. The more names we get, the better it is for all these reasons.

Please join us to celebrate and commemorate choice and the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Use the form at
