In a piece published in @MsMagazine, Erv Nevitt explores the critical role of pseudonyms in sexual abuse lawsuits. He highlights how defense teams exploit “transparency” arguments to pressure plaintiffs to reveal their identities publicly: bit.ly/4kiRhWT #SurvivorJustice

"I feel treated like a human, instead of looked down on. And not having to jump through all these hoops to get some help has been huge."
What a great story about the power of trusting and investing in families.

This is how Afghan women feel:
"In the past, you could escape from family tensions by turning to society. Now, both family and society have become prisons, leaving us trapped between the two."

🗣️#WPSWednesday: “Despite being trapped “between two prisons,” their homes & society, #Afghan women continue to fight back. This fight can't be won by women alone. The world must unite against gender oppression & apartheid in #Afghanistan.” @MsMagazine msmagazine.com/2025/02/25/af…

Age-verification laws are being weaponized to censor LGBTQ+ and abortion-related content online, restricting access to critical resources under the guise of protecting children, EFF’s Rin Alajaji and @CollingsPaige write for @MsMagazine. msmagazine.com/2025/02/25/lg…

The gender wage gap has widened to 75¢ on the dollar—and it’s even worse for women of color.
Even in women-dominated fields, women earn less than men. We won’t stop fighting until the gap is gone. #EqualPay

The New York Times has published an absolutely shameful takedown of Planned Parenthood. Here's my take @MsMagazine

Led by DWC Chair Emerita @RepLoisFrankel, the Global HER Act protects and expands access to reproductive health care for women worldwide by repealing the global gag rule.
We’ll always fight for the rights and health of women and girls.

The Global Gag Rule is a cruel attack on women’s health; it blocks U.S. global health funding to international organizations that use their own money to provide abortion services or even simply share reproductive health care information with their patients.
I introduced the Global HER Act with 100+ colleagues to permanently repeal this harmful policy and promote healthier, more prosperous communities worldwide.

"Ipas Bangladesh reported that due to USAID’s funding restrictions, abortion care services were not available for #Rohingya refugees, including sexual violence survivors."
The human impact of President Trump's foreign aid restrictions is staggering. msmagazine.com/2025/02/18/us…

Can it go that far? "Outsiders don’t appreciate just how extreme the patriarchy is on the right. I have attended conferences where speakers and participants actively promote a return to male-only voting..." @kathsstewart

🎉In a landmark victory, the UN Human Rights Committee has found Ecuador and Nicaragua RESPONSIBLE for violating the human rights of three girls—child survivors of rape—who were wrongly denied access to abortion care. msmagazine.com/2025/01/31/un…

Legal doesn't mean accessible.
In states like Missouri, voters have enshrined abortion rights into their state constitution—but anti-choice lawmakers are working overtime to silence voters and keep abortion out of reach.
