I wish, when I was young, I had understood that my silence about my abortions would never protect me. I wish I had realized years ago that silence only nourishes the people who shame us & create cruel barriers to reproductive health care. #ShoutYourAbortion
Abortion providers work diligently & courageously every day to advance reproductive justice.
Today, @MazieHirono & I are leading a resolution to mark #AbortionProviderAppreciationDay and honor their humanity, labor, and endless contributions.
We love partnering with local abortion providers -- together we are rooted in our shared commitment to accessible, compassionate abortion care and building a world where all people have the ability to control their own bodies and shape their futures. #CelebrateAbortionProviders

For far too long, social media platforms have profited off harming BIPOC folks, LGBTQ+ folks, and disabled folks by targeting us with fear-based disinformation campaigns. Today is the day we declare: NO MORE. Join us in the #AbortionFacts movement to #LiberateAbortion.

A little thread, sent with love to all the people who do their best to prevent pregnancy, yet get pregnant anyway. Hoping for more messaging like this wonderful tweet that includes the truth about #contraceptive failures. #YouAreLoved@ContraceptionJL
