Frequently asked questions

What is the goal of Never and Now?

In 2022 North Carolina denied Republicans the supermajority. Then, Representative Tricia Cotham switched parties, granting the Republicans the supermajority. This means Governor Cooper was stripped of his veto power, which paved the way for the implementation of extreme anti-abortion legislation.

Today, if NC voters can flip ONE SEAT in the senate from red to blue we can break the supermajority and restore checks on outrageous attacks on the reproductive health and safety. The goal is to protect access to abortion by electing pro-choice legislators to the NC Senate. Every seat counts

How will you accomplish this?

By raising funds and awareness for 4 pro-choice candidates for North Carolina State Senate through person-to-person outreach and making political involvement approachable and fun. We know our networks - and their ripple effects - are eager to have a specific, tangible goal in the fight to defend reproductive rights.

What's with all the green?

Green is the internationally recognized color of the reproductive rights movement. Pro-abortion activists in Argentina originally wore green bandanas to protest anti-abortion laws, and when Argentina legalized abortion in December 2020, the symbol became known as the "marea verde" - the "green wave."

Activists in the United States have since adopted this symbol of resistance, and green hats, ribbons, bandanas, shirts, posters and more could be spotted at protests across the country in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs decision.

We proudly chose green for our Never & Now logo to honor the legacy of those who have fought before us and those who continue the fight here in our home country and home state.

We are NEVER going back. We must act NOW.
