Stop the Ban (STB) is a statewide coalition of organizations and concerned citizens working to defeat a Constitutional Amendment that would overturn the reproductive freedom ballot measure passed in 2024. The proposed ban addresses multiple unrelated subjects, banning abortion and health care for transgender youth as well as changing court processes designed to make it harder to protect reproductive freedom.

The Political Director will report to the Campaign Manager. They will be responsible for building and maintaining relationships with key stakeholders, growing the campaign’s coalition, and leading political outreach efforts across the state.
