H.4760 is meant to stop access to abortion pills in SC.

Under this bill, anyone who helps a patient get abortion pills could face up to 50 years in prison and $100k in fines.

It aims to criminalize the people that care for abortion seekers and through that isolate and trap people who need care.

ATTN: A bill to criminalize access to abortion pills is moving swiftly to the SC House floor for a vote.

Horrific.

Cecil Elvir-Quinonez is a human being and a mother. Denying her the care that she needs is cruel and it's dangerous. Cecil—and every other pregnant woman, whether detained or not—deserves access to essential reproductive care.

No one should be punished for their abortion, miscarriage, or stillbirth All pregnant people should be treated with dignity. Sign up to be part of the fight to change the law in your state.

We refuse to settle for state violence-lite.

Anti-abortion advocates are turning to sexist, 200-year-old laws that made it a crime to “conceal a birth” to investigate, arrest, and separate families.

Even before Roe fell, we’ve been defending people criminalized for how their pregnancies ended.

Now, without Roe, policing of pregnancy loss is rising, including states that have enshrined abortion rights in their constitution.

Amazing moment in Dr. Nisha Verma of @prh.org's testimony:

She discloses that she herself took these medications after suffering a "devastating pregnancy loss" a few months ago.

Third and final witness is Dr. Nisha Verma, an OB-GYN who provides care in Georgia & Massachusetts and is a fellow with @prh.org.

There are a bunch of fake pictures of protests among my friend networks on other sites. They are really, obviously AI, but I understand how in all the pressures at the moment you can see it, have a feeling, and hit share.

Instead: go to local news. Here’s my outlet I write for. There are others.
