A beautiful thing to behold today in Boise! The city has once again thwarted efforts by state politicians to block the display of pride flags. 🌈

Nearly a quarter of pregnant women aren’t getting prenatal care in the early stages of pregnancy, according to a new analysis from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Louisiana’s request to restrict access to abortion medication has no basis in law or science, and it would cause irreparable harm to survivors of intimate partner violence.

We're challenging Trump administration proposals to ban gender-affirming care for youth.

CASE UPDATE: A court has dismissed our challenge to Initiative 2081: a deceptive and harmful law that threatened 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, homeless youth, youth of color, and students from other marginalized backgrounds — as well as their access to confidential health care and inclusive education.

Meet our new executive director, Tiffani Lennon!

Legal Voice joined Interfaith Community of Idaho, Planned Parenthood, the ACLU of Idaho, and 75 other advocates to rally for free speech and 2SLGBTQ+ rights in the Idaho statehouse today. The rally was held in response to HB 561, a bill banning pride flags on government property.

Today, Idaho lawmakers introduced RS 32985, a ban on local nondiscrimination ordinances (NDOs). #IDLeg (1/6)

A WA appeals court has dismissed a retaliatory defamation lawsuit that targeted a survivor of sexual violence. This ruling sets a powerful precedent that will protect survivors who speak out about their experiences.

Excellent explainer from @kelciemmorris.bsky.social:

Washington state's use of technology should not be a threat to accessing essential health care, as Alizeh Bhojani of @legalvoice.org says. However, our latest report highlights the danger of WA's use of Flock surveillance systems. Learn more: jsis.washington.edu/humanrights/...

In 2023, Washington bought a $1.3 million stockpile of abortion medication to safeguard access. But two years later, the medications still haven’t been distributed. With a looming expiration date, the state has shared no plans for distributing the drugs to the people who need it most.

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court decided to hear our challenge to HB 500, an Idaho law that bars transgender women and girls from participating in sports at school. We’re proud to be collaborating with the ACLU, ACLU of Idaho, and Cooley, LLP on the case.

Major Supreme Court decisions are coming — and we’re hosting two free webinars to break down what they mean for our communities: 📅 June 27: Focus on Washington state (with NOHLA + @acluwa.bsky.social) 📅 June 30: Focus on the broader Northwest Learn more and RSVP at legalvoice.org/events

In the coming days, the U.S. Supreme Court will make high-stakes rulings on reproductive health care, trans rights, and immigration justice.

The Montana Supreme Court has permanently blocked THREE anti-abortion laws! This ruling is a huge win for Planned Parenthood of Montana and everyone who supported the organization’s challenge to these laws. Together, we protected essential health care.

Our advocacy staff showed up big time in ID, MT, and WA this legislative session — facing down anti-trans and anti-abortion attacks, navigating budget constraints, and even scoring some major wins. Thank you to everyone who took action with us!

Yesterday, we joined around 4,000 people to celebrate at Canyon County Pride! 🌈 Despite intense heat and an unsettling gathering of protesters, turnout was steady throughout the day. #CanyonCountyPride #NampaPride

GOOD NEWS: Today, Gov. Ferguson signed into law the Dignity in Pregnancy Loss Act (SSB 5093). This bill will ensure Washingtonians are not investigated or criminalized for their pregnancy losses. Kudos to Pro Choice Washington, @legalvoice.org, and everyone who advocated to pass this policy.

Today, a Montana court paused one of the most extreme anti-trans bathroom bans in the country in response to our lawsuit! Because of this ruling, Montanans can use public facilities that align with their gender identity while our case proceeds. Learn more: legalvoice.org/perkins-v-st...

Today, HB 475 passed the Montana Senate with bipartisan support! Most states already restrict the use of leg and waist restraints on local inmates who are giving birth. With the passage of this bill, Montanans will finally be protected as well.

We’re relieved to share some good news happening in Idaho: a federal court has made an encouraging ruling in our lawsuit challenging the state’s abortion bans. #ReproductiveRights #AbortionIsHealthCare

Together with the ALCU and ACLU of Montana, we filed a lawsuit last Thursday that challenges Montana’s anti-trans bathroom ban. Today, a state court issued an emergency order that temporarily blocks the state from enforcing the law.

We have been deeply disturbed to witness the federal government’s ongoing attacks on trans people. To help our community understand the impact of these attacks, we’ve updated our resource library with a guide to trans rights in Washington: legalvoice.org/trans-rights-WA
