1. DCAF is still here -- we’re not going anywhere.
2. You are always welcome to eat tacos and/or drink beer, fund abortion, and post on social media to encourage others to do the same :) (5/5)
Abortion IS healthcare.
Abortion IS essential.
But in TX, abortion is now virtually inaccessible. It’s time for Congress to #ActforAbortionAccess & pass the Women’s Health Protection Act. The U.S. House is expected to vote FRIDAY so act now.

We're offering online volunteer clinic escort trainings in January -- for volunteers in MD (Baltimore, Greenbelt, Hagerstown, Rockville) and on certain days of the week.
Please read through all the information on our Trainings page and RSVP: https://t.co/mmmB56wHAs
My first shift ever as a clinic escort with @wacdtf 🥰
I’m now on the Steering Committee and a shift supervisor. I’ve also used escorting to raise hundreds of dollars for abortion funds and clinics
@ravine68@penneysage ... so you’ll love this: our acronym stands for Washington Area Clinic Defense Task Force. Which is an interesting acronym.
We often get people searching for “escort dtf” and they become rather disappointed with what they find. 🙂
As a member of @wacdtf I must say not all clinics support engagement with anti's as to not escalate the situation for patients, but no patients are seen in this video.
As a person who has been tested by jerks like Jennifer I can only say GO TELL A BITCH ABOUT HER SKY DADDY!
@LouClinicEscort This isn't to say that ALL clinics oppose engagement with protesters. Some clinics have found that it's a great tactic to divert protesters' attention from preying on patients. However, it's not necessarily the case in all places. Best bet is to ask the clinic escorts onsite(2/2)
@LouClinicEscort THANK YOU. We, as a #clinicescort volunteer group, also do not engage with protestors.
Why not? Our goals & guidelines state that we're onsite at clinics' invitation, and they've determined that the least obtrusive access for patients is without engagement. (1/2)
… mind you it’s a lot better when we’re not in a pandemic and we can give head skritches to said puppies, but the visual is nice if that what we can get.
“That’s not going to help, sir,” he calls out while I wipe down the door handle. And continues with his conversation with the sign holder right next to him. Perhaps they’re family living in the same home, but I doubt it…
Being a #clinicescort today means increased measures. We’re spread out much further, we’re carrying signs helping patients know where to park, and we’re sanitizing the door handles regularly here at @fchc_online (1/2)
Also? MAJOR shout-out to @fchc_online for helping us out today with supplies — and for the staff who washed our orange identifiers (the shirts we wear) and wrapped them individually! Usually we return then after we use them; until further notice we’re taking home our own to wash.
