Donald Trump’s second term as United States president poses a grave threat to human rights in the United States and the world.

Trump has made no secret of his intent to violate the human rights of millions of people in the United States. https://t.co/WrxwjNhCZp

Our new paper shows how restrictive abortion policies can increase infant mortality. Some— but not all— of the increase we found was likely due to forced continuation of pregnancies with known lethal congenital anomalies.

Absolutely heartbreaking study to work on.

[Susanne B. Park @SuzeBPark]

#SouthKorea continues to block the @WoWabortionpill website, hindering women from accessing info and abortion pills.

The govt's disregard for the right of women & girls to access abortion care is part of a broader picture of extreme gender discrimination. https://t.co/YvY2lcZLUa

France’s adoption of abortion in its national constitution sends a powerful message to the world. It’s a commitment to a vision for reproductive freedom, health & well-being. All people should be free to choose abortion as an essential health service.

All 13 hospitals in northern #Gaza face ongoing Israeli evacuation orders.

Thousands of patients, medical staff, and about 117,000 displaced people are sheltering in these facilities. There is nowhere safe for them to go.

"many respondents seemed unsure about how pregnancy works and how complications can unfold."

"Our biggest takeaway is that people do not hold a shared standard definition of what is & isn't an abortion...there's a lot of nuance & ambiguity in how people are thinking about these issues"—our expert Alicia VandeVusse on our new findings w/ @selenasd: https://t.co/pwY91wfb9j

@udeagha_maureen That was an amazing week! 🙌 Excited to see what's next @udeagha_maureen!!

[Doyeun Kim @_doyeun]

Tens of thousands of women & girls die from unsafe abortions each year. Nobody should have to risk their life to end a pregnancy.

Grateful to be part of a community that works hard to prevent preventable maternal deaths and morbidities + advance sexual & reproductive rights.

Let’s stop sleepwalking towards the destruction of our planet by climate change.

We know the harm will fall hardest on communities facing discriminatory barriers to care: Black, Indigenous & other people of color, people with disabilities, young people, undocumented people & people with low incomes. #AbortionJustice #LiberateAbortion

[Guttmacher Institute @Guttmacher]

BREAKING: #SCOTUS just ruled to overturn #RoeVWade. This decision has enormous consequences for pregnant people across the nation & will make it more difficult or impossible to access abortion care in many states. This is a massive blow to reproductive health, rights & justice.

[Jill Filipovic @JillFilipovic]

Cops freed from even the obligation of telling you your rights. Radically expanded access to guns in the wake of a massacre of children. Denial of a death penalty plaintiff's request to so much as decide how the state kills him.

Conservatism is a culture of nihilism and death.

[Doyeun Kim @_doyeun]

Another day, another story while SCOTUS decision looms. Abortion = essential healthcare that can be life-saving. No one should be denied this care based on where they happen to be.

[Doyeun Kim @_doyeun]

"She would say that history is repeating itself after learning little from its past." A deeply moving reflection on reproductive & bodily autonomy in the US.

Grateful for this powerful story from @AlethaAkers -

Tracing the harsh reality of my great aunt's history of childbirth & struggle for reproductive autonomy, I reflect in @MsMagzine how little has changed in how people in power regard Black women’s agency in reproductive choices. #RoeVWade https://t.co/sykyoxrKkj

Our analysis confirms that individuals seek abortion even in settings where it is legally restricted. Since the early 90’s the percent of #UnintendedPregnancies ending in abortion has increased from 36% to 50% in countries that restrict access to abortion. https://t.co/yxAtrsm26h

First ever country level estimates of unintended pregnancy & abortion from the @Guttmacher Institute & WHO indicate major inequities in access to sexual and reproductive health services, including contraceptive and abortion care https://t.co/PSGBOzfooU

Today is one of the most exciting days of my career because my team at @Guttmacher has finally published the first ever globally comparable estimates of unintended pregnancy and abortion for 150 countries! https://t.co/PSpXK4OYsY
