We knew this was coming, but it still hurts. Roe has never been enough. We deserve so much more. BAF and abortion funds across the country will always be here, supporting people with their abortions.
“We demand that decisions about Black women’s health be made by Black women — not by politicians, judges, or a racist system that inflicts harm upon us and our families at every turn.” — VP of Communications Racine Tucker-Hamilton #AbortionIsEssential
The first #Momnibus bill has been signed into law! @RepUnderwood and @SenDuckworth's Protecting Moms Who Served Act ensures veterans receive the world-class maternal health care they have earned. Thank you @POTUS for taking this historic step to save lives and honor our veterans.
“Bodily autonomy is not a debate. It’s non-negotiable. We cannot be afraid to name the connection between the anti-abortion movement and white supremacy.” — Erin Grant, @KeepOurClinics
“Casey & Roe were correct. For a state to take control of a woman’s body & demand that she go through pregnancy & childbirth with all of the physical risks + life altering consequences that brings is a fundamental deprivation of her liberty.”-Julie Rikelman, @ReproRights
Anti-abortion politicians claim that restricting abortion access will protect the health of women, but that is simply NOT TRUE.
U.S. states with more restrictive abortion laws tend to have FEWER policies that support families' overall health and well-being.
🚨 #TEXAS UPDATE: We just filed a lawsuit in defense of Dr. Alan Braid, the physician who provided abortion care to a Texas woman beyond the limit under the state’s abortion ban, #SB8.
This lawsuit also asks a federal court to strike down the unconstitutional ban.
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. While pregnancy loss is common, it can be traumatic. Having support can help. Here are some resources to assist: https://t.co/CKwRADqSmf
BREAKING: A federal court just temporarily blocked #SB8—for now. This is an important step in the fight for reproductive freedom, but the fight for abortion access in Texas is still far from over. #BansOffOurBodies

Texas abortion funds like @lilithfund are working overtime to serve people harmed by the #SB8 abortion ban. Your donations help provide abortion services and other resources patients need, like a ride to the health center. #BansOffOurBodies

Yesterday, Texas banned abortions after 6 weeks of pregnancy. Many women do not find out they are pregnant until after 6 weeks of pregnancy. This ban will be detrimental. #BansOffOurBodies#AbortionIsHealthcare
