Abortion Access Can’t Depend on Rage Donations Post-Dobbs abortion access has been propped up by donor outrage and heroic work—but that fragile system is already leaving people behind.

Terrific piece on the current state of abortion access by @dsc250.bsky.social & @carolejoffe.bsky.social - there is a lot to rage about these days but we still need those rage donations for abortion care: msmagazine.com/2026/01/21/a...

Abortion Access Can’t Depend on Rage Donations Post-Dobbs abortion access has been propped up by donor outrage and heroic work—but that fragile system is already leaving people behind.

"Everyone deserves reproductive freedom—not just those who are lucky enough to more easily access it."

@carolejoffe.bsky.social and @dsc250.bsky.social write in @msmagazine.com that despite heroic efforts of providers and volunteers, we need more to get abortion access for everyone who needs it

Donate to Please Help Keep Dr. Remy Coeytaux Safe, organized by Jodi Jacobson Remy Coeytaux, MD, a family doctor in California, is being targeted by Liz Murri… Jodi Jacobson needs your support for Please Help Keep Dr. Remy Coeytaux Safe

Friends, as most of you know, abortion providers are one of the far right's main targets. Dr. Remy Coeytaux, is now being sued by the Louisiana AG, as well as a man in Texas. The subsequent doxxing of Dr. Coeytaux's address by right-wingers has left him very vulnerable.

How One Clinic Saved Abortion Access in a Deep-Red State Julie’s involvement with abortion care began in 2001, when she began work with Dr. George Tiller.

In a small Wyoming college town, 12 individuals began planning to open a new clinic in anticipation of the overturning of #RoeVWade. Their long-shot gamble paid off! @dsc250.bsky.social @carolejoffe.bsky.social

An honor to be on the Outlaws podcast

There are many ways people help those who need abortion care across the country, despite growing restrictions.

Case of brain-dead pregnant woman kept on life support in Georgia raises tricky questions The case of a pregnant woman in Georgia who was declared brain dead and has been on life support for three months has given rise to complicated questions about abortion law and whether a fetus is a pe...

AP's reporting on GA may confuse readers. It says pro-lifers are divided on personhood bills. That's true of bills authorizing punishment of women but NOT of the idea of personhood, which is what is driving events in Georgia. This isn't an outlier.
