In Canada, an anti-choice disinformation campaign is targeting later abortions. Undercover videos at 4 clinics show staff handling an anti-choice fake patient with compassion and support. Abortion is healthcare, Canada has no laws or gestational limits, and patients' needs are respected.
It’s #SerotoninSunday!
👐Meet Lana’e Hernandez: she just opened the first All Options Pantry in St. Pete — a totally free, judgment-free supply hub for birth control, abortion care, and baby items. No front desk. No shame. Just actual care filling the gaps lawmakers keep creating.

"Young Texans may be more likely to not recognize pregnancy early, know where to obtain an abortion, have fear about disclosing their pregnancy to family members or to be unable to travel and pay for care, especially without adult help."

L'utilisation des échographies pratiquées dans les centres de grossesse inquiète des experts de la santé reproductive. La Coalition pour le droit à l'avortement du Canada croit que les échographies ont pour objectif de dissuader les femmes de se faire avorter.

Since Dobbs, abortion bans have cost folks' their lives, worsened the Black maternal health crisis & pushed essential care out of reach.
Now Republicans are gutting Medicaid, defunding Planned Parenthood & moving us closer to a nationwide abortion ban.
The cruelty is the point.

I see some people saying that we’ll be forced back into having unsafe abortions. And I get that everything is scary. But it’s important to understand that now we have abortion pills, and abortion pills are very medically safe.
The primary risk is a legal one, and we should be prepared for that.
Adoption isn’t an alternative to abortion, it’s an alternative to parenting.
The White House’s effort to redefine who is entitled to U.S. citizenship also sent a strong signal about the administration’s narrow view of family — one that excludes LGBTQ+ couples.
Thank you for tuning in for an important discussion, “New Strategies for Fighting Anti-Abortion Pregnancy Centers” Check out a recording when it drops:

Alt Text: A two-panel meme from the movie Easy A. In the top panel, a blonde character (played by Amanda Bynes) says, "We’re stripping protections from abortion clinics and handing them to anti-abortion centers instead." In the bottom panel, a red-haired character (played by Emma Stone) looks shocked and says, "WTF?!!"
HORRIBLE TREND ALERT! Propping up Fake Clinics is happening on a state and Federal level. This week Wyoming introduced a bill letting fake clinics operate with ZERO restrictions and imposing unlimited penalties on anyone attempting to expose their Cirque du soLies. https://buff.ly/4jD8ji9
Illustration of a packet of pills with the word 'mifekit'. Text: Abortion pills are safer than Viagra, penicillin, giving birth.
🚨 Important reminder! 🚨
Abortion medication is safer than Viagra, penicillin, and giving birth.
Spread the good word.

RFK Jr's promise to "study the safety of mifepristone" — which research shows is safe and effective — suggests openness to using HHS to impose national restrictions on a major method of abortion.
It would reverse Trump's campaign promise to leave abortion up to states. w/ @bcrodriguez.bsky.social
Abortion Care Canada - formerly NAF-Canada - may have to shut down! The government has denied its recent funding proposal to help Canadians access abortion. Other groups also had funding denied or cut back. This is devastating for repro rights and access in Canada!
What do Trump's actions mean for Canada? Leading up to our own federal election where a Conservative leader seems the likely outcome, Rabble Radio asks: what is the state of reproductive rights in Canada – and what’s at stake in the upcoming election? (30 minute podcast, with Joyce Arthur)

It's #Caturday & these cats ain't messing around 🐾
Abortion is an essential part of a comprehensive system of healthcare. Abortion should never really be put to a vote because it is an essential human right. The cats know this. Be more cat 😸

You are not irresponsible for needing an abortion 🩷
