Yesterday's PA Supreme Court ruling was a great first step towards more equitable access to reproductive healthcare.
Let's keep this energy going.
#PAWHC #AbortionIsHealthcare
Great reporting by Stephania Taladrid tells the tragic story of one Texas woman, @jennlewey and I have shown this is just the beginning of a health crisis on the doorstep of all states with abortion bans

This is Texas AG Ken Paxton saying he’ll throw a woman’s doctors in prison for life if they perform a *court-granted* abortion on a *nonviable* pregnancy that risks causing her permanent infertility and death.
Still think the GOP is pro-life?

Important #CardioObstetrics @JACCJournals article by @jennlewey showing higher HDP rates in abortion restricted states jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacad…

Over the counter #narcan and #contraception have a lot in common! I talk with @PennLDI @shoshiaronowitz about making @opill_otc available where and when people need it

44M+ women of repro age live in states where abortion is banned or severely restricted & 19M+ live in contraceptive deserts. The gaps are significant & yet only 21% of women of repro age who seek care at FQHCs receive any contraceptive counseling or services. 😤
Sometimes one really has to ask oneself… what would you do without your fav citation manager? Like maybe quit… @mendeley_com I <3 you

🧵 thread:
This #LatinxHeritageMonth, we honor the history and legacy of Latina/x resistance for abortion rights. The Marea Verde or Green Wave is a global movement for abortion rights started by feminists in Latin America.
Thank you @RepHarris for meeting with these OB/GYNs and @acog to discuss the harm #SB106 will do to our patients and the people of Pennsylvania!
Proud of Philadelphia today! Thank you @HelenGymAtLarge @KendraPHL @JamieGauthier1 for introducing this critical legislative package! And look at this boss @afrarey go!!! 👏🏻
“Abortion providers in Philadelphia are continuing to work to provide our community with the care it needs and deserves, free from punishment, shame or stigma… this legislation is an important step to defend abortion rights.”
— @afrarey, OBGYN and abortion provider

Standing up for abortion rights and reproductive justice has never been more important. That's why I'm proud to introduce the Reproductive Freedom Platform for Philadelphia with @HelenGymAtLarge and @CouncilmemberJG today. Here's what our legislation will do ⬇️
🚨Very helpful guidance from @HHSGov about HIPAA and reporting patients for #abortion including these examples:

👉 pregnant pt in a state that bans abortion tells provider that they intend to seek an abortion in a state where abortion is legal, provider CANNOT report the statement to law enforcement
👉If you believe your privacy or someone else's has been violated 🚨REPORT IT🚨

I’m seeing a lot of posts saying people will die because Roe has been overturned. That is definitely true. But perhaps not for the reasons you think.
Abortion is still legal in Pennsylvania—but it’s hanging by a thread. @AastaMD and I explain the precarious state of abortion access in PA - spoiler alert - y’all better be ready to vote
