Texas has enacted the strictest abortion ban in the country. The new law essentially bans abortion after six weeks of pregnancy. Millions oppose this law and now want bold action to hold Texas lawmakers accountable. Petition starter Sue wants the NCAA to take a stand. The women’s basketball Final Four is slated to be held in Texas in 2023. Sue is asking the NCAA to relocate the Final Four to send a loud message that Texas’s law is unconstitutional. Add your name to pressure the NCAA to act. NCAA: relocate the women’s Final Four 2023 outside of Texas 1,846 have signed Sue Favor’s petition. Let’s get to 2,500!

A new Texas law has effectively banned abortions after six weeks of pregnancy - the most severe abortion limitations in the United States. The ban also may penalize women and/or those who try to help them get to another state to get an abortion. The NCAA awarded the 2023 women’s Final Four tournament to Dallas, Texas. Five years ago, the NCAA removed seven of its tournaments from North Carolina after that state passed an anti-LGBT law. We ask the NCAA to now extend that stand for human rights to women - half of the human race - and relocate the 2023 women’s Final Four tournament outside of Texas. It would be of paramount disrespect to the athletes, and all women, to hold this esteemed tournament in a state that has not only no regard for women’s rights, but has opened the door for these rights to be limited in other parts of the country. 2023 Final Four out of Dallas NOW.
