AND JUST LIKE THAT The termination of Pregnancy Bill 2020 in it amended form from HOA passes on voices, quite anti climactic in the Leg Co however 6 years of work behind the scenes we are leaping form our seats in joy!
The front page of @theTiser has an inflammatory and stigmatising headline about abortions later in pregnancy and the Stillborn Baby Payment. Reminder that later gestation abortions are rare but essential health care accessed in complex circumstances.

it's insane that she keeps getting published in the tiser with absolute nonsense
nobody who has carried a baby for 28 weeks is ending a pregnancy simply for a $4k payment
Only 3 NSW public hospitals are “openly providing abortion outside of a medical emergency … Women elsewhere are left trying to access one of just 13 private providers, which cost a minimum of $775 if you have a Medicare card, and are not easy to find.”

There needs to be some sackings from hospital boards & LHDs. There should be none of these abortion deserts. Abortion is health care & ALL publicly funded hospitals MUST ensure that all women have easy access to health care.

Today the Greens have announced our plan to provide women with free access to contraceptives.
There are 4.8 million women in Australia using contraceptives.
Our policy would make sure they can access the contraception that works for them, regardless of their bank balance.

Inside the box it lists: Provide $250m per year to make TGA approved non-PBS contraceptives free, get modern contraceptive pills on the PBS and help cover the costs for non-hormonal copper IUDs, make contraceptive insertion and removal free, and introduce a new Medicare item for contraceptive counselling.

Abortion is ESSENTIAL healthcare. We must not standby & watch the erosion of #AbortionRights in Australia. Decisions about abortion are best made by the woman & her healthcare provider. Not politicians, not lawyers, not pretend-drs, not religious leaders
