We'll be honest: This FDA decision to delay the meeting of its advisory committee to discuss approving an over-the-counter birth control pill is OUTRAGEOUS. Birth control is an URGENT health care need for so many. It's hard to understand why the FDA would make this decision. 😡

Tell Congress: Support The EACH Act! - All* Above All

Due to systemic racism, economic insecurity, and immigration status, abortion coverage bans disproportionately impact BIPOC, folks working to make ends meet, and young people. It’s time for #AbortionJustice, #4EACHOfUs.

The EACH Act is bold legislation that ensures that each of us, however much money we make, however we get our health insurance, and wherever we live, has insurance for abortion care.

✅ Today, BOLD legislators in the U.S House introduced the EACH Act, the first federal legislation this year to ensure we can all access abortion care however much money we make and end the decades old Hyde Amendment. #4EACHOfUs #BeBoldEndHyde

👉Abortion has always existed and will continue to exist. It is pivotal healthcare that cannot be delayed. It is not in the shadows. Abortion care is healthcare that needs to be accessible, funded, and recognized. #LiberateAbortion

Today would be a great day to celebrate the 50th anniversary of #RoevsWade. . . but ya know ✨Dobbs Decision✨ If you're a young person looking to get involved in the fight for #AbortionJustice, join our Youth Abortion Support Collective (YouthASC) 📢 advocatesforyouth.org/abortion-out-l

🕒 It’s time for all of us to think bigger and bolder than restoring Roe v. Wade. #AbortionJustice means everyone who needs abortion care can access it without being shamed, punished, or going broke.

We know #AbortionJustice belongs HERE- in our communities, city hall, state legislatures, Congress, and the White House. We envision a world where each of us can live, work and make decisions about our health and future with dignity and respect.

GIF

Abortion liberation is more than keeping abortion legal; it’s about access, freedom, equality, and justice. We demand the future we know is possible: compassionate and affordable abortion care readily available in our communities, with love and support. #LiberateAbortion

While we would have LOVED to take today to celebrate the 50th anniversary of #RoevsWade, our besties at the Supreme Court had other plans. But let's be real: Roe was the floor. We need to protect, expand, and decolonize #AbortionAccess for all!

GIF

➡️ PART 2: Young people led the fight for #abortionaccess at every level in 2022. Here are some of the highlights as we acknowledge what would have been the 50th anniversary of #RoevsWade

Last year, we all felt a tremendous loss with the overturning of #RoevWade On what SHOULD be the 50th anniversary of #Roe, we want to highlight how our youth #activists are continuing the fight, despite many efforts to stop #abortionaccess.

When politicians restrict abortion care, they take away our ability to control our own lives, bodies, and futures with dignity. Our reproductive health care decisions shouldn’t be in the hands of politicians and courts #AbortionJustice #BeBoldEndHyde #MedAbortionIRL
