Donate to an Abortion Fund Right Now The Senate just confirmed Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. It is just one month after she was nominated by Donald Trump. The presidential election is in one week. By now, you’ve likely heard Democrats and reproductive-rights activists sound the alarm on Barrett’s  views on abortion .
