On this anniversary of the Dobbs decision, look to the helpers.
This episode of our podcast is about Upper Midwest abortion funds doing what they can to ferry people to Minnesota (and within Minnesota) to get abortions—it's a great episode! genderjustice.us/podcast/roe…

New today: @powertodecide reports that the @Abortion_Finder website has seen more than eight million visits since Roe was overturned nearly two years ago.

The only way to ban abortion in the US is to sidestep democracy.
The majority of the public is against bans. theintercept.com/2023/08/24/…

Black mothers are often forgotten in conversations about mental health. The Maternal Mental Health Alliance reports: "Almost 40% of Black mothers and birthing people experience maternal mental health (MMH) conditions." Read More Here: mmhla.org/articles/black-mat…

To reporters wanting to cover how abusers & their anti-abortion activist lawyers use baseless lawsuits to harass people who have abortions, this @newrepublic article is an example of how to do it. You don’t need to trot out someone’s case increasing the reach of their abuser.
Post-Dobbs, abusers have new tools to wield against their intimate partners.

And this is why there is no such thing as a “reasonable” abortion restriction. They are all extreme. They all cause harm. The law cannot purport to know the ins and outs of every pregnancy and home, nor should it attempt to. Abortion saves lives.
A new study shows that anti-abortion laws are linked to an increase in domestic violence deaths.
Enforcement of just one TRAP law is associated with a 3.4% increase in the rate of intimate partner violence-related homicides.

"We have a good deal of evidence that shows us that self-managed abortion with medications, with mifepristone and misoprostol or misoprostol only, is quite safe and effective." - Dr. Lauren Ralph in @Salon.

It can be scary to hear that Texans are being harassed because they traveled out of state for an abortion. *No one should have to worry about this or any harassment because they had abortions.*
To be clear: It is legal to travel to get an abortion.

We’re at the Bell Museum, celebrating @OurJusticeRJ — Minnesota’s original abortion fund, going strong and addressing injustice for over five decades.
Abortion funds are a lifeline. May they one day no longer need to exist.

Our new @PSRHjournal article led by Dr. @jess_dozier is out!
Though patients felt abortion was the right decision, some would've chosen to parent if they could afford it. As RJ makes clear—BOTH abortion access & parenting support are crucial for autonomy: doi.org/10.1111/psrh.12265

Minnesota's "crisis pregnancy centers" provide medical services without regulatory oversight.
Worse, they are not required to protect client data.
We call on Attorney General Keith Ellison to take immediate action. #DesignedToDeceive nbcnews.com/health/health-ne…

the amount of legal abortion access that’s been decimated in the last two weeks alone is just staggering

“IVF is legal in Minnesota, and Alabama’s ruling does not extend beyond Alabama,” says @Jess_Braverman.
“If we want to keep it that way, then we can and should pass an Equal Rights Amendment in this state, inclusive of reproductive freedom." #Yes4ERA minnlawyer.com/2024/03/01/mi…
