Moving tribute @CATWIntl to the late Virginia Giuffre by Taina Bien-Aime. Giuffre was a fierce advocate who pursued justice against Epstein/Maxwell. May she rest in peace knowing she/other survivors have been heard/ validated. Read her book Nobody's Girl

Thank you Rep. Goldman. We need more voices like yours. NOW-NYC works to sound the alarm on the sex trade. That's why we are in our 3rd year of a campaign to end the statute of limitations on sex trafficking in NY. Call your state reps urge them to sign on to A.2575
To my GOP colleagues working to combat sex trafficking – the call is coming from inside your house. Trump just facilitated the return of charged rapist and sex trafficker @Cobratate to the U.S. It's an insult to survivors everywhere and discourages victims from coming forward.

Sounding the alarm on being bought for sex. Violence-trauma-dissociation-rape-death-PTSD-drug abuse-broken families @AnoraFilm illustrates the reality but wants to "destigmatize" sex work, instead of holding men accountable. Read what men do to Anoras

The uncompromising leadership and clarity of New York @GovKathyHochul.
Doctors take an oath to protect their patients. I took an oath to protect all New Yorkers. So let me be clear: I will not sign Louisiana’s extradition order — not now, not ever.

Attacks on reproductive rights this week. The Global Gag order reinstated. Pardons for 24 extreme anti-abortion protesters. Bill H.R.722 to force a federal abortion ban. DOJ to limit enforcement of Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act. Fight NOW!

In a disturbing escalation of attacks on repro healthcare, Louisiana prosecutors indicted NY physician Margaret Carpenter for prescribing abortion medication to a patient in LA. @GovKathyHochul refuses to comply with any extradition request. Steadfast in protecting NY doctors!

Thank you @GovKathyHochul for protecting Reproductive Rights, Freedom and Healthcare - and now working around the clock to enshrine abortion rights in our state constitution! Vote YES on Prop 1
New Yorkers, this November, we have the power to enshrine abortion rights in our state constitution. Voting YES on Prop 1 is a vote to ensure women, not politicians like myself, have the power to make decisions about their own bodies. https://t.co/L3dIIPOLaI
