No more ‘pro-choice’ vs ‘pro-life’ — we need more nuance.

NARAL Pro-Choice America is Now Reproductive Freedom for All - Reproductive Freedom for All

“The fight for abortion rights and access is at a critical moment. With the coalition of Americans who support reproductive freedom growing by the day, our leadership identified a clearer and more inclusive path forward to mobilize this new and expanded base of support.”

Abortion Defense Network | Everyone deserves access to safe and affordable abortion care

The Abortion Defense Network connects abortion providers and supporters with values-aligned attorneys and legal defense funds. Its goal is to help these individuals and organizations—who are providing a vital service to their communities—understand their rights and fight back against unjust legal proceedings designed to harass and intimidate them.

Defending Democracy - The Right Wing’s Latest Legal Theory

Civil and voting rights groups have long challenged voter suppression laws and unfair maps in court using federal voting rights protections. But the conservative legal movement is now arguing that individuals and groups cannot bring these lawsuits — only the U.S. Department of Justice can — proposing that there is no private right of action in crucial federal voting laws. If courts endorse this concept, laws like the Voting Rights Act would be severely undermined and become largely unenforceable. Marc and Paige discuss where this surge of private right of action lawsuits came from, the current cases pushing this theory and what could potentially happen.

And why is #Walgreens supporting this gang?

"During the last election cycle, Walgreens also donated $123,500 to 39 members of Congress who received a failing grade (25% or lower) in the latest scorecard from #NARAL #ProChoiceAmerica. This group includes 12 co-sponsors of the "HeartbeatProtectionAct of 2021, a bill that would ban #abortion nationwide after 6 weeks — before many women know they are pregnant."

What a pregnancy actually looks like before 10 weeks – in pictures

In 13 US states, abortion is banned even in the earliest stages of pregnancy. But we rarely see what such tissue really looks like

The Guardian
Chuck DarwinFeb 25, 2023

Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach (R), a hard-line social conservative, said this week that he had received a commitment from Walgreens pharmacy chain not to mail abortion pills into the state.

A senior #Walgreens official said in a letter released by #Kobach that it “does not intend to dispense #Mifepristone within your state and does not intend to ship Mifepristone into your state from any of our pharmacies.”

Antiabortion groups also filed a lawsuit against the FDA in November, in an attempt to force the agency to rescind its approval of mifepristone. They claim the FDA ignored side effects of the drug, and argue that pregnancy is not an “illness” and “abortion chemicals” do not provide a “therapeutic benefit.”

Legal experts have called the suit, filed in a U.S. court in Texas, baseless.

However it has come under the purview of District Court Judge Matthew #Kacsmaryk, a Trump nominee known for his socially conservative views.

If he rules in the plaintiffs’ favor, “64.5 million women of reproductive age” nationwide risk losing access to medication abortion, according to #NARAL Pro-Choice America.

12 states sue FDA to make abortion pill more accessible

There are tight FDA restrictions on the distribution of mifepristone, an abortion pill at the center of the reproductive rights debate.
