Access MO is a state-wide political action committee formed in 2019, inspired by Jewish values, that provides education about and support to state and local candidates in Missouri that embrace and advocate for reproductive freedom and health care.
In post-Roe Missouri, Access MO is uniquely positioned to help fund and foster pro-reproductive health care and justice leaders across the state.
“We are so pleased to endorse so many candidates who can make a difference in our region and in our state,” said Dana Sandweiss, co-founder of Access MO. “Access to reproductive health care is a critical issue, and we thank these candidates for being there to support all of us.”
