To mark one year since Roe was overturned, I wrote this important piece for @ELLEmagazine on why we need to leave Roe behind and reach for something better. #RoeVsWade#AbortionRights https://t.co/T9ll1OYcQT
Abortion pills belong everywhere, like any essential. We deserve them wherever and whenever we need them. No one should face jail time for taking care of ourselves or helping a friend. #SelfManagedAbortion#AbortionOnOurOwnTerms#AbortionPills
Self-managed abortion allows us to access care on our own terms, in our own hands, with the support we choose, and when the time is right for us. #SelfManagedAbortion#AbortionOnOurOwnTerms
For many, self-managed abortion (SMA) with pills is the most accessible and empowering option available. SMA allows us to access care on our own terms, in our own hands, with the support we choose, and when the time is right for us. #AbortionOnOurOwnTerms

✨ It is imperative that policies to increase LARC access include safeguards to protect against reproductive coercion✨
...because LARCs place some measure of control with the provider rather than the patient.
Repro healthcare must include protections against coercion.
True access to contraceptive care exists when:
anyone seeking contraception can get the full range of services, including comprehensive and culturally competent counseling, from an appropriately trained, accessible, affordable health care provider.
Reproductive health care is essential, and we look forward to seeing more local elected allies stepping up for #localreprofreedom.

Despite the abortion limitations of the county funds – a legacy of the Hyde amendment – the Reproductive Health Fund will continue to provide funding for abortion care and practical support. This is HUGE.
Abortion support paves the way for abortion access.
People have many reasons for getting an abortion and all of them are valid. Their reasons are also none of your business. No one who has had or will have an abortion owes anyone any explanation.
📢 Abortion access is an economic issue!
Bans and restrictions disproportionately affect low-income people, who have less access to funds needed to travel to access abortion care. Carrying an unwanted pregnancy to term can push people deeper into poverty.
