[Planned Parenthood Action @PPact]

BREAKING: A federal court just said it would block the Trump admin’s Title X gag rule, which would have banned providers in the program from referring for abortion—a victory for patients, including 1.5m Planned Parenthood patients who use Title X for care. https://t.co/sKyxNnqbzX

Yes! We will be voting you out for blocking the #ERA

[Pam Powers Hannley @P2Hannley]

I used parliamentary procedures to force a vote on the #ERA in the #AZ House. #Republicans used parliamentary procedures to stop the ERA... again. The women of AZ know who stands for #Equality & with the people. @AZHouseDems @erataskforceaz @ERAAction

Ending violence against women shouldn't be a political issue. But now that it is, take action to end the spread of injustice, pain, and suffering against women. #ViolenceAgainstWomen #equality #feminism #feminist #VAWA4All #VAWA19

Genital mutilation is most closely attributed to African countries but Americans are no stranger to it as well. More than half a million women are at risk or have already undergone the genital mutilation procedure in the U.S. alone.

Living "the American dream" is impossible when you're constantly discriminated against for something that was out of your control. Dreams need to be seen and their stories need to be heard.

#equality #Dreamers

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

I’ve met with countless DREAMers over the past few years who inspire me & I’m going to share a few of their stories with you today.

We're fighting to lift the ban on DREAMers working or getting paid internships in Congress & it's so important that they are seen and heard.

Women of color constantly face discrimination and the work place and the paycheck isn't any different.

[Planned Parenthood Action @PPact]

#EqualPayDay is the day women's pay catches up with men's from the previous year. But for women of color who already experience systemic barriers, it's a different story.

Truly heartbreaking

[America's Voice @AmericasVoice]

NYT: We Fled the Gangs in Honduras. Then the U.S. Government Took My Baby.

I still don’t know where or in whose care my daughter was when we were apart. She’s still traumatized.

During first and second trimester abortions the "baby" is a fetus. Why are states prioritizing a fetus over a young girl or woman?

[Planned Parenthood Action @PPact]

"The courts have made it clear that laws restricting abortion in the first and second trimesters are unconstitutional, but states keep passing pre-viability abortion bans anyway...And the costs are high." #StopTheBans https://t.co/cob1Oj6d6B

[Global Refuge @GlobalRefuge]

Through our video diary "Alone," we challenge you to consider the trauma and heartbreak that has been inflicted on countless children at our border.

In 2016, she received the Presidential Medal of Honor by Barack Obama. The highest award a civilian can receive in the United States. Hamilton not only broke the glass ceiling in the world of software engineering, she practically invented it. An inspiration for women worldwide.

There is no logical reason to prioritize an unborn embryo over the safety and life of a young girl or woman. #ProChoice #equality #abortionrights

[Reproductive Freedom for All @reproforall]

Anti-choice politicians in Alabama have filed a TOTAL abortion ban that entirely criminalizes the procedure. 63 of the 105 legislators in Alabama’s House of Representatives have already signed on. #ALPol https://t.co/SkiAlpJe5P
