There is no such thing as a “post-birth abortion.” That’s it. That’s the tweet.

Welcome news, obviously but what a wild case to even remotely entertain as SCOTUS. There wasn’t a valid claim of standing for like 100000000000 miles let’s be fr right now

Our data scientist Isaac Maddow-Zimet testified before the US Senate on the sharp increase in out-of-state travel for abortion care.️ As our research shows, 1 in 5 abortion patients crossed state lines for care in 2023. This can't be the new norm. More: gu.tt/3VB7MDr

Our new op-ed in @TheHillOpinion exposes the anti-abortion movement for what it truly is, and spoiler, there's nothing "pro-life" about it. Our Acting Co-CEO Destiny Lopez and VP for Public Policy @KellyBaden break it down: thehill.com/opinion/judiciar…

absolutely devastating news out of FL for abortion access. while the approval of the ballot initiative was approved, the devastation of a 6 week ban that will be in effect in just 30 days will be felt through the entire region

Today in Washington DC, our Acting Co-CEO Destiny Lopez & staff join advocates from across the US to remind #SCOTUS that there's only one reasonable decision: honor the FDA’s evidence-based approval of mifepristone & preserve access without any new restrictions. #BansOffOurBodies

I spoke to the @newrepublic about the IVF ruling— all these issues— abortion, contraception, everything— are linked. And also as a very dedicated auntie to kids who wouldn’t be here without IVF— angry is an understatement newrepublic.com/post/179222/…

NEW op-ed: Our research & policy experts discuss how a recently retracted study has been used as part of a baseless court case to restrict access to the medication abortion drug mifepristone in the US—and why that retraction was justified. More @thehill: thehill.com/opinion/healthca…

We've long admired Cecile’s tireless work for bodily autonomy and reproductive rights for all. Her unwavering commitment is truly inspiring, persisting even in the face of grave illness. @CecileRichards you are a beacon of strength, sending you heartfelt support & gratitude🌟
The last six months have been wild - but thanks to incredible health care providers and the support of family and friends, I’m doing really well. I’ve felt lucky all my life, and I feel lucky now: to be here, doing this work, alongside all of you. thecut.com/article/cecile-ri…

I’m obviously very glad the charges were dropped, but, as this tweet says, it doesn’t undo the harm— the financial, emotional, and personal implications will continue to exist. There was just no reason to put Brittany Watts (or anyone) through this
🚨CHARGES DROPPED. An OH grand jury has declined to charge Brittany Watts with felony abuse of a corpse for having a miscarriage. Let's be clear that this doesn't undo the harm, and the case shouldn't have been pursued in the first place. mahoningmatters.com/news/loc…
