Does your institution have a public statement in support of access to abortion care? Share their name or handle in the thread below so we can make sure patients and clinicians know where evidence-based care is valued and supported. #ActForAccess
Providing the perspective of a recent examinee on this one, this is simply long overdue. Glad the petitioners could effect change here! The move to virtual needs to be permanent. #AbortionIsHealthcare
Today ACOG and the AMA were joined by more than 75 health care organizations in a statement condemning legislative interference in the patient–clinician relationship that restricts the full spectrum of care. Read the full statement: https://t.co/JI0Btx1tJK
Contact your senators and urge them to support #WHPA. This critical legislation will protect physicians and patients alike from unnecessary, ideological interference in patient care and enable physicians to provide safe, evidence-based abortion care. https://t.co/5QzdU9UqGt
As we face the potential overturn of Roe, it’s clear that protecting women’s health care is more critical now than ever. ACOG is pushing for Congress to pass the #WomensHealthProtectionAct, which puts evidence-based science first for patients. 1/2
“We are deeply concerned by the current reports and will continue our ongoing work to prepare for a new dynamic when it comes to needed abortion care." - ACOG President J. Martin Tucker, MD, and President-Elect Iffath Abbasi Hoskins, MD #DobbsvJackson
@CassandraKisby Yup. Kiddos 3 & 10 mos. 2 MD parents. 💯 feel totally abandoned by public policy, vax delays, etc. no good options, constant source of stress.
As we wrap up #WomenInMedicineMonth, let’s not forget:
👩🏿⚕️Despite efforts to advance #WomenInMedicine 📊
👩🏼⚕️ #COVID19 has set us back 🦠
👩🏽⚕️Women are leaving healthcare 🏥
👩🏻⚕️The pipeline is leaking 💧
👩🏾⚕️Let’s stop the loss 💦

Last night’s #SCOTUS decision on #SB8 strips pregnant people in TX, especially those from communities of color, those without abundant resources, and those who are young, of the ability to access needed abortions. This will profoundly impact people's lives, health and well-being.
ACOG is proud to support institution mandates for all health care workers. Now that ACOG has a strong recommendation for COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy, we feel confident in formally joining this powerful joint statement. https://t.co/lMCjvKsNG4

"The reason women are critiqued for being too loud or too meek, too big or too small, too smart to be attractive or too attractive to be smart, is to belittle women out of standing up publicly. The goal is to ‘critique’ into submission & applies to anyone challenging power." AOC
