A new study from @pewresearch.org found that the MAJORITY of U.S. adults support abortion access. It’s time for policies to reflect what the people ACTUALLY want 📣

A woman in Georgia was charged with murder last week after she attempted to have an abortion nearly three months ago.

Clara Bingham recommends books on reproductive rights by Irin Carmon, Muriel Fox, Stephanie Gorton and more.

On May 9, Instagram will remove end-to-end encryption from its chats. While Meta claims this is due to “very few people using it,” we see it for what it is. A dangerous step backwards in data privacy. www.ndtvprofit.com/technology/i...

(1/4 ) This latest attack by the Trump Administration is yet another attempt to distract from the real barriers to health care people face every day — particularly cost, which, for too many, remains the greatest barrier to accessing care, including abortion. buff.ly/quBTcZ8

At NIRH, we believe that your health care access should never be determined by where you live, your income, or your insurance status.

For centuries, midwives and doulas have provided reproductive health care in their communities, informed by ancestral expertise and cultural knowledge. NIRH works with our partners towards policy solutions that increase access to midwifery care and improve pregnancy outcomes. 🎥: @reshmasaujani.com

ICE has long had guidelines for detained immigrant parents. However, a new report reveals that agents are blatantly disregarding these rules, not asking parents if they have children or ensuring the kids have someone to care for them.

"No patient in America should have to go back and forth with their providers…and for damn sure not with no politicians about what medical care they are allowed to have." - Lauren, a combat medic with the national guard. msmagazine.com/2026/03/15/w...

We’ve always known that medication abortion is safe and should be legal. And the MAJORITY of U.S. adults agree! 💗 www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...

You might know May Mailman as the woman who took on Harvard on behalf of the Trump administration. But Mailman, a Stephen Miller ally, is also the mastermind of Trump’s most sweeping anti-trans orders— an extraordinary effort to reshape our ideas about who and what men and women are.

Reproductive freedom all the time. Disco occasionally. #harrystyles gets it — the only person who should be making decisions about your body is YOU!

Today is #Oscars Sunday! We know who we’re putting on our ballot: our longtime partner, Feminist Center for Reproductive Liberation. They are featured in a powerful documentary nominated for Best Documentary Short Film, "The Devil Is Busy.” NIRH is cheering them on 🎉

For generations, Black midwives have nurtured their communities, offering care that is rooted in deep cultural connection. This type of support improves health outcomes throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Today and everyday, we celebrate Black midwives! #BlackMidwivesDay buff.ly/H88H23G

"Midwifery is not a new thing. From the beginning of time, midwives have been out here." - Taiwo Adeloye Ajao, ARISE Black Midwife. NIRH applauds the advocates in Maryland that have been upholding this community-based care that is needed nationwide. www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...

The criminalization of pregnancy outcomes must stop.

This Friday the 13th, remember to stay away from black cats, broken mirrors, and anyone who wants to police your sex life 🐈‍⬛🪜🪞

Trans rights 🤝 abortion access We’re in this fight for bodily autonomy together 🧡

The Oregon legislature is protecting the providers who protect us by passing their own shield law 🎉 It’s now up to @tinakotek.bsky.social to sign HB 4088 into law to help protect providers and defend abortion access. Read more about this bill below: buff.ly/KQ1SsEa

The Trump Administration continues its political attack on abortion access. Mass pardons of anti-abortion activists have caused an increase in threats and harassment at clinics. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

While there was a 2% decline in brick-and-mortar abortion clinics in the U.S. between 2024 and 2025, Ohio is actually one of four states that saw an increase in such clinics, with three opening during that same time period. tinyurl.com/59bpm8a4

Pregnancy loss is normal. Pregnancy loss is not your fault. Pregnancy loss should never be criminalized.

Reminder: medication abortion is safe, effective, and backed by decades of medical evidence. Let’s keep talking about it!

Abortion bans affect the economy. People are choosing to leave states with strict abortion bans — resulting in higher housing vacancies, increased levels of poverty, and less accessible health care. States should be caring for their constituents, not driving them away. 19thnews.org/2026/03/abor...

The “uNfOrTuNaTe fLaW” he's referring to is that the state's abortion ban has no rape or incest exception. 🤬 But this is no accident; these policies are DESIGNED to violate our basic human rights. For the extremists who champion these violent laws, this is a feature, not a bug.

About half a dozen states have introduced legislation that would charge women who end their pregnancies with homicide—in some of those states, that could mean the death penalty.

Even the strongest anti-abortion advocates don't want to punish people for pregnancy loss. Police and prosecutors are finding ways to do it anyway. www.huffpost.com/entry/miscar...

There have always been abortion providers, and there will always be abortion providers. Today, we celebrate everyone who makes abortion care possible. #CelebrateAbortionProviders @abortioncare.bsky.social @keepourclinics.bsky.social

Flock’s automatic license plate reader (ALPR) cameras are being used by state and local law enforcement to escalate reproductive health and immigrant violence across the country.

Holding our mission close like it is our emotional support stuffed monkey 🐒🫂 #PunchTheMonkey

A narrow but important win in Indiana. Cracks in abortion bans start small, then they grow.

The political attacks on mifepristone do not disprove the SCIENCE. Medication abortion is safe, effective, and important for patient-centered abortion care. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

TW: SA ICE is purposefully sending pregnant children to a Texas facility, where they cannot access health care they need, including abortion care. This choice by the Trump administration to is just another attack on reproductive freedom. Read more below: bit.ly/407EkXk 🎥 Gen Z X El Cambio

Our favorite dynamic duo! The combination mifepristone and misoprostol is a safe and effective medication regimen for ending a pregnancy. It’s a widely used, FDA-approved method that has been a standard of care for over two decades. 💊✨

Sex work 🤝 Reproductive Justice For true reproductive freedom to exist, all sex workers must have equitable access to affordable health care, freedom from violence, and the right to make decision about their own body without fear or coercion. #SexWorkersRightsDay

"Midwifery includes the menopausal experience…I listen, gather precious information, hear their concerns, hopes and expectations, so that I can offer care that’s specifically designed for their journey." - Racha Tahani Lawler, a fourth-generation midwife msmagazine.com/2026/02/10/m...

Abortion pills are still widely available in the US. For more info about their safe use visit us (link in bio)

Many abortion seekers rely on abortion doulas or support companions to support their self-managed abortions, many of whom are connected through local doula collectives or mutual aid networks. reproaction.org/self-managed...

Oral contraceptives should be made free and over-the-counter to help eliminate both cost and structural barriers created by discrimination. Reducing barriers to contraceptives is shown to have measurable benefits.

Unsurprising that the lawyer behind Texas's abortion bans works closely with lifelong abusers, and unsurprising that men who have spent decades assaulting women think they should have the right to control our bodies and our lives. But we'll fight them with everything we've got. bit.ly/40BQ8kH

Congratulations Wisconsin on this loooong overdue victory 🥳 New moms will now get extended postpartum Medicaid coverage, a step that 48 other states have already taken. The legislation now goes to Gov. Tony Evers, who is expected to sign it into law. pbswisconsin.org/news-item/wi...

🧵 1/6 ICYMI, here is some of the progress that was made in state legislative sessions last month! From contraception to EMTALA to abortion access, reproductive rights and justice advocates are working hard to expand care across the country.

Black midwives have long been the heart of maternal care, guiding generations of birthing people with ancestral wisdom and sacred, hands-on skill. 🎥 via @yourchoicesclinics.bsky.social and Dr. Akaninyene Ruffin

The Trump Administration's cruel policies aim to erase 1.6 million transgender Americans from public life. Republicans are stripping Title IX protections from students and denying gender-affirming care in federal facilities. We need to call it what it is: discrimination. @civilrightsorg.bsky.social

Dr. Oz thinks replacing OB-GYN's with robots is cool. We think it's a sign of policy failure.

"When this assistance relies on inconsistent large-scale private donations, as well as the almost-supernatural work of abortion providers and supporters, it’s no wonder that some people are slipping through the cracks, even while abortion numbers are rising."  msmagazine.com/2026/01/21/a...

This grant will help fill a huge need by supporting the opening of the first nonprofit birthing center in South Florida. Founded by Southern Birth Justice Network and Magnolia Birth House, this center will be a beacon in an area where many maternity units have closed. www.wlrn.org/health/2026-...
