SCARLETT JOHANSSON DESIGNS FOR PLANNED PARENTHOOD

Scarlett Johansson has teamed up with Planned Parenthood to advocate for women’s rights. In celebration of Women’s Equality Day, a limited edition t-shirt has been designed for the Women Are Watching campaign, with proceeds going toward educating young women about the importance of voting for candidates who support women’s rights.

“Women are watching, and we will fight for candidates who will ensure that birth control is affordable and who will protect access to safe and legal abortion,” Johansson said. “Women will be the key to the elections this November and it’s more important than ever that young women register to vote and vote for the candidate that will stand up and fight for them.”

A bright pink throwback to the 1950’s, the t-shirt was clearly designed to bring back certain feelings and memories. “When I heard that some politicians were cheering the Supreme Court’s decision to give bosses the right to interfere in our access to birth control, I thought I had woken up in another decade,” said the actress.

“Like many of my friends, I was appalled by the thought of men taking away women’s ability to make our own personal health care decisions. That’s when I knew I couldn’t sit on the sidelines and why I’m proud to support Planned Parenthood Action Fund’s Women are Watching campaign to ensure that young women know the high stakes for women’s health and rights this November.”

Shirts can be purchased at the Planned Parenthood website for just $25. Will you buy one?
