The GOP budget targets abortion providers like Planned Parenthood by cutting off all federal funding—including Medicaid. “All they needed to add was ‘if your organization rhymes with wood,’” said Fabiola De Liban of NHeLP. “States can’t fill that gap long-term.” www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

“The game is rigged.” One of the powerful sentences in today’s @nytimes.com opinion essays co-authored by my spouse @kevindeliban.bsky.social about the work requirements requirement currently proposed by Congress. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/o.... He knows this because he has seen this before.

Buenas noticias!

I'm thrilled that many repro orgs are paying more attention to Medicaid. I've also noticed that some don't have the most up-to-date information or misunderstand the program. Please check out @nhelp.bsky.social's Medicaid Defense Webpage, incl. various SRH sources: healthlaw.org/medicaid-def...

🚨Anyone interest in repro and Medicaid should pay attention. 2.0 freezes federal funds, which might include Medicaid.

Very proud of @kevindeliban.bsky.social for this piece featuring his new organization.

As the new administration will likely reinstitute the global gag rule, let's call it that. No need to say, "Mexico City policy." Mexico City was the precursor for the country's decriminalization of abortion. Let's not taint it for things that foreigners did in the city 40 years ago.

#SCOTUS will soon decide whether Medicaid law gives beneficiaries the right to choose a specific health care provider. Check out @nhelp.bsky.social's most recent explainer on Medina (formerly Kerr) v. Planned Parenthood of South Atlantic: healthlaw.org/resource/cas...
