This fall, Pro Choice CT will officially be sunsetting its operations.
But this is not good bye. In fact, it's only the beginning.
Today, we're proud to introduce our friends @reproequity_now, who will be picking up the mantle and carrying on our legacy of bold repro advocacy.

Proud to join @AGWilliamTong for a Roundtable Discussion on the state of abortion care one year after the Dobbs Decision. I feel incredibly lucky to get to work alongside so many amazing champions for reproductive health and justice! @ProChoiceCT @PPSNE @acluct @Matt_Blumenthal

“We know that the harm of this crisis falls hardest on people working to make ends meet who are more likely to be people of color,” @theFword527 on why we need the #AbortionJustice Act. TY @RepPressley for blazing the trail in Congress with this new bill: thehill.com/homenews/house/4…

The fall of Roe was just the beginning.
Join me tomorrow for a panel discussion on what we have seen one year post Dobbs and how Connecticut is fighting back to protect access to safe, legal abortion.

1/Happy #Juneteenth! We are celebrating Black Liberation today & everyday! That means uplifting the ways Black people — esp queer, trans & gender expansive Black folks — have been driving the work to protect our right to bodily autonomy & how we build our families & our futures.

Juneteenth is a day of celebration & a call to action to unite, honor and continue the work of those who fought for Black lives & Black voices. The vote is still a powerful instrument of change to address systemic racism. Make a plan to vote in Hartford’s Mayoral race this year.

Honored to represent Connecticut @WhiteHouse to continue the fight for reproductive freedom w/ @Matt_Blumenthal As we approach 1 year since the overturning of Roe v. Wade CT continues to lead and pass laws to protect our rights and expand access to reproductive health care.

The CT General Assembly passed AAC State Voting Rights in Recognition of John R. Lewis (“CTVRA”) as part of the state budget. The bill now awaits a signature from Gov. Lamont.
Once signed into law, the CTVRA will be the most comprehensive state-level voting rights act.

Huge victory for the Reproductive Rights Caucus! SB 3 protects private health data — including location data related to reproductive healthcare — from disclosure, preventing legal risk and harassment. Amazing work from so many, especially @SenatorMaroney. On to the Governor!

Happy #pridemonth. We're celebrating all of the LGBTQ folks needing comprehensive repro health care. No matter your sexuality or gender you deserve dignity and compassion, and PRH is working to make that a reality.
To our queer staff and community members, thank you for you 🌈

14 years ago today, Dr. George Tiller was assassinated by anti-abortion extremist Scott Roeder while serving as an usher at his church. Prior to the murder, Tiller had been the target of harassment and violence for nearly two decades, including an earlier shooting he survived.

Early voting would be a step forward for racial justice in our state.

Thank you Senator Derek Slap for your leadership and Minority Leader Senator @21KevinKelly for the strong bipartisan support to ensure increased access to reproductive health care for students at CT public universities.

HB 6768 would also increase access by allowing for vending machines that dispense some approved drugs, including emergency contraception. Emergency contraception pills are safe, don’t cause any long-term side effects, and don’t affect the ability to get pregnant in the future.

HB 6768 has passed the house! Thank you to all our champions who voted YES to expand access to health care!
