Thank you @reprosfightback.bsky.social for featuring Samira Damavandi, Guttmacher’s Senior Policy Associate for Federal Issues, in your impactful series on #SRHR heroes!

ICE raids, forced family separation, surveillance, and other racist, xenophobic policies violate the core tenets of reproductive justice. This week, Lupe Rodriguez, ED of the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice, talks the intersections of #ImmigrantJustice and #ReproductiveJustice:

🚨 New Episode 🚨 This week on @reprosfightback.bsky.social I talk to the wonderful Lupe Rodriguez w/ the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice about the intersection of immigrant justice & reproductive justice. It was a great conversation that you should definitely check out. #podcast

While I was off for the holidays & taking a bit of a break from social, we released a fun episode of @reprosfightback.bsky.social that y'all should check out. We had amazing advocates ( Lupe Rodriguez, @mclemoremr.bsky.social, Samira Damavandi, and me) share their repro hero origin story. #podcast

This means the VA won't cover abortions EVEN in the case of rape, incest, or serious threat to the health of the patient. The DOJ memo was authored by Josh Craddock, one of the chief legal advocates for fetal personhood, i.e. imposing a nationwide abortion ban through the courts.

8 years ago today we launched the @reprosfightback.bsky.social podcast. If you had told me then that I would be doing this 8 years & almost 300 episodes later I would not have believed you. But here we are a multi-award winning podcast. I am so proud of what we built and I feel so lucky 🍀

Because we apparently need the reminder today. 🎨 by @liberaljane.bsky.social

Another disaster. This one has actual harmful consequences for trans kids and their families.

This week on rePROs Fight Back, Jill Montilla and Spogmay Ahmed of the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative talk with @jennieindc.bsky.social about building a feminist foreign policy that disrupts colonial, racist, patriarchal, male-dominated power structures. #podcast

🚨 New Episode 🚨 This week on @reprosfightback.bsky.social I talk to Jill Montilla & Spogmay Ahmed w/ the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative about what a feminist foreign policy looks like and building a world that disrupts colonial, racist, patriarchal, male-dominated power structures. #podcast

This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral. (From the VF story on Susan Wiles.) www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

Medicaid is a lifeline for rural maternal care, covering nearly half of births. Yet the GOP budget bill is designed to widen "maternity care deserts," forcing rural hospitals, clinics, and L&D units to close. Women and birthing people in rural communities need access to care close to home.

🚨 New Episode 🚨 This week on @reprosfightback.bsky.social I talk to Ashley Kurzweil and Sarah Coombs at the @npwf.bsky.social on the threats facing rural hospitals especially their Labor & Delivery units & what these threats will mean to the patients who rely on rural hospitals. #podcast

Hey rePROs, Please bear with us as we deal with technical issues that have delayed this week's episode of @reprosfightback.bsky.social. We will get it posted as soon as we can.

The Supreme Court is hearing oral argument tomorrow to decide whether a crisis pregnancy center's lawsuit belongs in state court or federal court so naturally Republican Attorneys General spent their whole brief talking shit about Planned Parenthood ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/first...

🎗️ It's #WorldAIDSDay, a time to show support for people living with #HIV & those who lost their lives to AIDS. ❤️ It’s important to know that today, people with HIV live long & happy lives thanks to access to ART. ❤️ People living with HIV deserve care not punishment.

🚨 This week’s episode title has been updated to clarify the law's scope. An unprecedented Texas law, taking effect in early December, allows private citizens to sue companies or medical professionals who mail abortion pills to Texans, even if those providers are in states where abortion is legal.

I just feel so lucky to get to host this podcast. I put my heart and soul into @reprosfightback.bsky.social and to see it get recognized with a Gold Anthem Award means so much to me. I'm feeling just so grateful and overwhelmed today. Thank you. 💜

And thank you to all of you for your support. We have such a wonderful audience and I'm so grateful you tune in to @reprosfightback.bsky.social every week to learn more about sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice and how you can fight back.

Also an enormous thank you to all of our fabulous guests. Without them we wouldn't have a podcast. They each bring something special including their incredible voices to educating us about issues relating to sexual and reproductive health and rights. Thank you!

I am so proud of our small but mighty rePROs Fight Back team, Rachel Marchand and Elena Yeatts-Lonske, for all of their work during this challenging time. Our podcast would not be what it is without them on my team. Rachel and Elena thank you for all you do.
