NEW: Multiple safety-net abortion clinics are weeks away from shuttering, with one telling me it could close by the end of the year. Even if Harris wins, more people could be denied abortions in short order.
“Roevember” won’t save these clinics

🎯 Leftists need to have a long term strategy.
🎯 Actual wins > symbolic losses
Also, “it doesn’t have to be genuine, it just has to get done”, is a bar, @msolurin
Listen friends - the more you center RJ, the more inconvenient you become to white feminists. The measure of allyship isn't always who loves you. It's sometimes measured by who hates you. ✊
Reminder: there’s no point in pregnancy that the government is better positioned to make decisions about your health and body than you are. #Debate2024#PresidentialDebate2024
"'Restore Roe' is a call to continue banning abortion and to continue criminalizing pregnant people" - @VillaviMD in a new piece from @chronic_jordan and the @theintercept about Abortion Justice Now.

1/7 The Abortion Justice Now (AJN) brief is a powerful call to rethink federal abortion policy, pushing for an expansive right to #abortion free from restrictive limitations.
@AlannaVagianos Combine this with providers, current and future, joining with later abortion patients to lay out a federal policy position to ensure the most socially & economically marginalized folks are not left out 💪💪💪

Roe is the past. Human rights at abortion justice are the future. https://t.co/LZFgjrbb06
Thank you @AliceOllstein for including https://t.co/sOQ0CfZE84 in this piece.
Roe was not only not enough, but it was harmful to the most marginalized among us. We demand expansive federal policy that leaves no one out, ever.

Any limits on abortion care, including viability lines, are harmful to the patients we take care of every, single day. They hurt the most marginalized among us. These limits have no place in state constitutions OR federal law.
Um no shade to the folks in Arizona, but the ballot initiative states that a right to abortion *with* a viability limit is "consistent with most major medical organizations and align with standard medical practices".
...That's...not true. Go to https://t.co/9a4rC1tRB9 for more.
My patients don’t need to explain why they need an abortion to me or anyone else. If you tell me you don’t want to be pregnant, I believe you. Let’s get you the care you need.
