Abortion bans like the one passed in Alabama are a violation of human rights.
These bans will be deadly.
They will endanger pregnant people’s lives.
They will re-victimize survivors of rape and sexual violence by denying them their rights.
We must not go back.
The policies of fear and rhetoric of hate must end. We know where this road leads.
If you are an immigrant, you belong.
If you are seeking asylum, you belong.
If you are standing up for justice, you belong.
We will not stop fighting alongside you.
We're thrilled to present athlete and activist Colin Kaepernick—who refused to ignore or accept racial discrimination—with the #AmbassadorOfConscience award. Thank you for your courage to act against injustice!

We welcome the news that the US House of Representatives passed HR4270, PROTECT Hong Kong Act, which would ban US crowd control exports to Hong Kong. The US should not be complicit in police brutality happening on the streets of HK #StandWithHongKong

> 19 live amunition rounds
> 1,863 sponge bullets

Women’s rights means:
- The right to control your body.
- The right to health care, including abortion and birth control.
- The right to love whom you choose.
- The right to safety, no matter your body.
- The right of equal treatment under the law.
