This year, in NYC and Memphis, people from across the country will gather to share their stories of mistreatment and discrimination during the perinatal period and demand systemic change.
We want to hear from you.🧵
Nina Gurak, policy director for @HealthyFreeTN — which advocates for reproductive justice — pointed to the ongoing lack of action by state lawmakers to ensure prenatal care — including accessible labor and delivery services — is available to people throughout their pregnancies.
Some good news for a change: @HealthyFreeTN had a massive win last week when the state repealed an 1883 law that criminalized "procurement of a miscarriage" and has been used as recently as 2015 to prosecute a woman who tried to end her pregnancy. https://t.co/q0Vfuo3cMj
We’re celebrating the repeal of #ProcurementOfAMiscarriage with @HealthyFreeTN!
After 140 years on the books, the Governor of Tennessee signed a law repealing the crime of “procurement of a miscarriage,” meaning no longer will this law be used to criminalize Tennesseans.
We're thrilled to announce that a 140 year-old Tennessee law used to criminalize people who end their own pregnancies was repealed!! Swipe through to read more about this big win for #ReproJustice (1/2)
Hey Media folks! We're calling on you to #PublishTheProtocol for medication abortion with Misoprostol alone in your reporting on the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine vs. FDA case. Read more about why this is important here!
Everyone should have access to the contraception of their choosing, without force or coercion, and free of charge! That's why we're bringing SJR148 to reaffirm the legislature's intent to support contraception access for all Tennesseans!
