We’re an alliance of Southern orgs working to protect, expand and affirm abortion access and reproductive justice in Georgia cities! #AmpUp#AbortionIsOK
In case you missed it: Our very own @Crystal_Elyse published an op-ed on fake clinics. Give it a read and, if you're in Georgia, tap in on how to fight against these deceptive places -> #FakeClinicsSuck
We are proud to announce the launch of our first #PublicVoices Fellowship on Reproductive Justice—a partnership between @TheOpEdProject, @LatinaInstitute and the Every Page Foundation!
We’re also thrilled to share the first published op-ed from this powerful new cohort: Crystal Monds writes in @WomenseNews about how fake pregnancy clinics threaten real care.
Thanks to The OpEd Project Coach, @tcpuente, for the support!

Local governments need to:
🛑 Regulate fake clinics
🧸 Fund childcare
📚 Provide comprehensive sex ed
🚫 End reliance on policing & incarceration for “safety”
Cities & counties must:
🏳️🌈 Enact nondiscrimination protections
🍼 Provide paid family leave for gov workers
🩺 Expand health coverage, including repro care
🧵Our bodies are not political playgrounds. *Cue Samirah* When state and federal governments try to take ownership of our bodies, local leaders have the power to protect us. Our Local RJ Policy Agenda tells them how.
City councils & county commissions don’t need to wait on the state. They can & SHOULD act to protect and invest in our communities now.
Email your local electeds to let them know you expect them to support this agenda

💸 Abortion funding
