BREAKING — #SCOTUS has ruled to overturn Roe, bringing the decision back to the states. TX is one of many states that have a trigger ban to go into effect weeks after today’s ruling. Texans have been living in a post-Roe reality for nearly 10 months, and it’s about to get worse.
"...such a fund is beyond traditional purview of city government." You know what is also beyond traditional purview? The multiple abortion bans in place. A public health crisis requires non-traditional solutions. Local govts have been taking action since Dobbs, this is not new.
San Antonio can be the next TX city that steps up and funds reproductive care— including travel for out-of-state abortion care. We should all thank the city leaders working to get this done.

Our movements are only as strong as our relationships and strong relationships require trust, transparency and accountability. Avow Texas cannot continue a partnership where these values are not honored. Solidarity with @AllAboveAll laid off workers.

#TXLege Action Alert!
This is our last chance to stop #SB14, a bill that will ban all health care for trans youth in Texas, from becoming law! Take a moment to send Gov. Abbott a message about why he should VETO SB 14.

The tenants of reproductive justice are the right to have a child, the right to not have a child, and the right to raise a child in a safe and healthy environment –– that includes safety and access to life-saving care for trans youth.
One of the principles of reproductive justice is the right to parent children in safe and healthy environments. That includes freedom from gun violence. #txlege
Once again, we are heartbroken and angry that another Texas community has been ripped apart by a preventable mass shooting.
Rep. Guillen is standing in the way of even taking a vote on gun reform. Call Rep. Guillen's office at 512-463-0416 now!
