We applaud today’s @US_FDA decision to approve over-the-counter birth control pills. Making them available over-the-counter will help reduce barriers and provide adolescents with another option for accessing contraception.

Today 43 Republicans voted to keep insulin at $1200/mo instead of $35. Tomorrow every Republican will ask you to be outraged that gas is $5 instead of $3. In the GOP world, $1200 for life saving insulin in fair play but $5 for gas is an outrage. Vote them all out.

The only reason not to cap insulin at $35 is if you’re capping it lower than that or making it free.

People should not need a traumatic event to access abortion; this idea leads to bans that only allow exceptions & deny everyone else. People should not need anyone’s sympathy, pity, or permission to get an abortion. Their reasons for accessing abortion are valid and their own.

Seeing a lot of articles and tweets about the need for abortion access by highlighting young children who are pregnant to garner sympathy and support. These cases are heartbreaking and absolutely matter, but we need abortion access because EVERYONE deserves bodily autonomy.

Breaking: A Louisiana judge has blocked enforcement of the state’s trigger ban, which banned abortion as soon as Roe was overturned. Abortions are expected to resume soon.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND that people’s “solutions” which cut out the entire populations of southern states from the economy or the conversation are NOT helping. You’re harming the people already most vulnerable to the poverty cycle and with least access to healthcare and abortion.

Please retweet if, like me, you would like the Presidents of SAG/AFTRA, the DGA, and the WGA - all women - to encourage membership to boycott film and television production in States that outlaw abortion.

We often don’t bring this up when speaking about abortion and pregnancy. A woman is most likely to be murdered during pregnancy than any other time in their life.

Elections have consequences. Elections matter. Human rights are always on the ballot. The future we give our children is always on the ballot. Every. Single. Time.
