The 2024 election will be, yet again, the most consequential election of our lives.
Women’s health and voting rights are inextricably linked. Our votes can save lives, restore bodily autonomy, and transform the country into a place where women and people assigned female at birth are full citizens again. As part of our #4Her2024 Get Out the Vote campaign, the NWHN, Sarah Epperson, and NOISE FOR NOW bring you this exclusive T-shirt so that you can proudly identify as a women’s health voter. 90% of the proceeds go right back to the NWHN’s work.
