As rigorous science faces the escalating threats of misinformation & false narratives, evidence-based research remains crucial to protecting & advancing bodily autonomy. Explore our latest findings on #ReproHealth in the US: https://gu.tt/48VEnJP

Literally by definition "viability" limits ARE gestational limits, as in they limit your ability to get an abortion if you are past a certain gestational duration.

"...a person’s right to bodily autonomy should never be dependent on their economic or insurance status.” @megankavanaugh.bsky.social

Beloved Wisconsinites: I am so sorry. If you cannot get to Milwaukee for care, shield law providers can help you. If you need in-clinic care, Minnesota and Illinois have got you. I know this makes things so much worse, but I promise, we WILL help you exercise your options.

This is so shameful.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

i just sent this email to @ezraklein.bsky.social

"In short, attacks on shield law provision lay bare the anti-abortion movement’s goal of weaponizing the criminal legal system—often by investigating, arresting, or prosecuting patients and providers—to eliminate abortion access nationwide."

Are we doomed to a demographic destiny of decline because ladies aren't having babies? No. We've been here before. It turns out that population projections only describe one of many possible futures. Our actual future is still to be written.

But we also captured big changes, particularly in the Southeast, where Florida's six week ban led to many more people traveling out of state for care.

Everyone deserves access to abortion care in their communities via their preferred method, whether that is an in clinic procedure, via telemedicine, or abortion pills sourced form a community network. Any restrictions that limit people's choices are unjust. Full stop.

Mass deportations is a reproductive justice issue. Bodily autonomy is impossible if you are afraid to leave your house, afraid to pick your kids up from school, afraid to see your doctor.

Pro tip: If you ever see inflammatory doomsday-style headlines about the "dangers" of abortion pills, don't believe it. It's ALWAYS the forced birth faux-cicians manipulating data to demonize and ban abortion. buff.ly/MSpELSP

“It’s not just the cost of travel itself or the cost of the procedure. It’s also the support of trying to figure out how to navigate a patchwork of laws, find a clinic with appt availability, get child care — most abortion patients have children — find accommodation.” @imaddowzimet.bsky.social

New data from our Monthly #Abortion Provision Study show that 155,000 US abortion patients crossed state lines for care in 2024. Guttmacher Data Scientist @imaddowzimet.bsky.social spoke with @chantellelee.bsky.social about the harmful impact of bans & restrictions on abortion access. gu.tt/3RltzMC

With science under attack, rigorous and ethically conducted research is more vital -- and more under threat than ever. We must continue to stand up for scientific research, like this incredibly important new study on the impact of post-Dobbs #abortion bans.

Protecting abortion patients and providers must always be our north star ✨

Abortion access should be safe, legal, and available to everyone—no matter the state. 💜    #HealthPolicyValentine @kffhealthnews.org
