    As we commemorate today, lawmakers need to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to and ensure we can safely and freely cast our ballots. Because let’s be clear: Every voice must be heard and our elections must reflect the will of the people.

    COVID cases are rising, yet so many communities of color, LGBTQ+ people, and women continue to be denied the care they need. Congress could change that. It's time to increase equitable access to health care, including closing the Medicaid coverage gap.

    Gov. Abbott has called a second session to begin Saturday at noon. On the list of priorities? Attack medication abortion. This is a distraction, one with real consequences for Texans who need immediate COVID-19 relief and a stable power grid.

    ⚠️New analysis of TX’s by calculates how cruel the new abortion ban will be. It targets the most vulnerable, forcing Texans to drive on avg. 248 miles to get the care they need, something many can’t afford — & no one should have to do.

    will push abortion access even further out of reach for those who already have limited access to health care. Not only is this a financial and emotional burden on the pregnant person, it is also a serious public health concern as the delta variant runs rampant in Texas.

    🚨 New analysis of the Texas 6 wk abortion ban: A TWENTY-fold increase in driving distance to a clinic. Someone making min wage would have to put over 3.5 hours worth of $ towards gas ALONE if they need to travel the avg distance for care.

    A Supreme Court ruling against Roe v. Wade could mean even more patients seeking care in FL. The state’s laws protect the right to abortion — though access may not be a reality for many.

    Targeted legislation like will force Texans to leave the state in order to have their abortions if enacted on 9/1. This puts an undue burden on people who already have less access: People of color, low-income folks and rural communities.

    It’s not controversial: Abortion is safe, essential health care. 80% of Americans support the right to abortion. Don’t let certain politicians control the narrative.

    TX's new law is as harmful as it is shocking. It deputizes private citizens to sue anyone involved in an abortion. We’re fighting back against this cruel agenda.
