While the courts try to figure out what to do about these dueling medication abortion cases, we know a few things:
1) Medication abortion is safe no matter what a judge decides.
2) Mifepristone is already in our communities.
3) Abortion is our human right. Any time. Any reason.
The laws and the courts don’t keep us safe; we do. No matter the ruling in this case, we will always support each other to have caring, supportive, and safe abortions. Mifepristone and misoprostol are here to stay.
ALT Mifepristone will always be in our communities. Access to abortion - no matter the method - is your right. We will continue to educate people on what their options and ensure people can safely access abortion pills in their communities.

Carol Foulke, 93, heard about the repeal of Roe at her assisted living home yesterday and told her daughter they needed to come into DC protest.
She was a family planning social worker for underserved communities before Roe and knows the impact this will have.

It's clear "learning to live with the virus" is the same paradigm thru which we will be conditioned to live with climate crisis—as the structural effects of capitalism are obscured by calls for individual resilience amidst a supposedly natural (and thus unresolvable) catastrophe

DC residents pay the highest per capita federal taxes in the country yet are denied voting representation in Congress, including members of MPD who helped save the Capitol and democracy itself that day, and full self-government. It’s long past time for #DCStatehood.

I am no longer interested in "what I accomplished in 2021" threads.
Tell me how many days you didn't get off the couch
Number of times you took a bath
Meals you ordered in
Shows that you binged in a day
Books you read halfway
It was an entire pandemic. Tell me you rested.

People have always and will continue to end pregnancies.
Having access to quality abortion care is a matter of safety and life for people who don't want to be pregnant.

I wrote this a couple of years ago but, like so much that so many people have been screaming for decades about the unrelentingly cruel and unjust erosion of abortion access, it unfortunately fucking holds up: How Extreme Abortion Bans Happened thecut.com/2019/05/how-extre…

I really do want to give a special shout out to all the men who have been telling me for a goddamn decade that Roe v. Wade is definitely safe don't worry your pretty little head about it.
May your socks always be wet and may you always feel like you're about to sneeze
LISTEN UP: This is not a drill.
Today the Supreme Court announced it's taking up a case that could completely upend abortion rights. What does this mean?

DC’s lack of statehood is a voting rights issue, a racial justice issue, and a public health and safety issue. Call your senators at (202) 224-3121 and encourage them to support #DCStatehood using the script below. #DCfor51”
