Daily reminder: if you've had an abortion, you don't need forgiveness from anyone unless you want it. You did nothing wrong. You are loved.

All that to say, Iowans, If you care about abortion access, caucus for

I am a huge supporter of
@JulianCastro too because he talked about reproductive justice, and the impact racism and classism has on abortion access. He's also talked about ensuring trans people have access to healthcare, including abortion. I'm glad they're working together.Show this threadThanks.

Lastly, I appreciate that
@ewarren understood that some people who want abortions won't be able to get them, thus, we need to upend our economic system to ensure they have the supports they need in our communities. She simply gets it and has a plan for that.Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
Politicians often frame "teen pregnancy" as a moral failure in society and place a disproportionate amount of shame on young people, but also refuse to support parenting young people in their communities and school. This is important to me for a candidate understand.

Additionally, she was able to give a clear answer that she does not support laws that require young people to notify or get consent from their parents when they want an abortion, and would ensure her Dept. of Education supports the needs of pregnant and parenting young people.

@ewarren's answer about criminalization was clear; not only did she understand that providers are being targeted for criminalization, but also that abortion patients are as well—particularly those who are self-managing their abortions.https://medium.com/@RBraceySherman/why-i-asked-about-abortion-for-playboy-88c175632cfa …Show this threadThanks.

Only four candidates replied to my multiple inquiries for the piece, and not all of the candidates replied to all of my questions on the first go around.
@ewarren did. In her answers, 2 things stuck out to me: her understanding criminalization & supporting pregnant young people.Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
For
@Playboy, I emailed all of the candidates to ask their stance on abortion access and reproductive justice; everything from self-managed abortion to supporting pregnant and parenting teens.

Of course I was really interested in
@ewarren with these plans, but I wanted to#AskAboutAbortion myself because as an expert in this field, I have different questions that I want answers to than the moderators will ask or campaigns generally talk about.

She's also given full throated support for the fight for reproductive justice and ensuring that Black and Brown folks are at the center of this work and creating the solutions.https://twitter.com/ewarren/status/1220103871017705473?s=21 …

@ewarren has also spoken about the actions we as a nation need to take to end clinic violence, which can harm patients seeking care, creates violent workplaces for clinic employees, and has led to the murder of so many by several anti-abortion activists.Show this threadThanks.

Financial and logistical barriers to abortion are some of the most difficult for abortion patients to overcome. This means people who have health insurance cannot use it when they're trying to get an abortion—but they can if they're continuing a pregnancy. It's discrimination.

Additionally,
@ewarren is pushing for a guarantee of reproductive health coverage as part of all health coverage and repealing the Hyde Amendment which makes it so those who are on Medicaid aren't able to use their insurance to pay for an abortion.Show this threadThanks.

Fun Fact: All of the restrictions on abortion that states have been passing over the past decade are medically unnecessary.

Recently,
@ewarren adopted@KamalaHarris' plan to require preclearance for states and local governments with a history of unconstitutional practices, which means if they want to restrict abortion, they'd have to prove the law is necessary before it can go into effect.Show this threadThanks.
