Make no mistake — while we hope this is a temporary setback to abortion access in Missouri, anti-abortion politicians are celebrating this ruling as a win in their larger coordinated effort to overturn the will of the voters and strip us of our ability to plan our lives, our families, & our futures.
As of 5/27, MO’s abortion ban is back in place, so Missourians *once again* have to cross state lines for care.
@moabortionfund.bsky.social makes sure cost isn’t a barrier for any Missourian who needs an abortion!
Plz donate $10, $20, $50 — whatever’s right for you :)

Today the MO Supreme Court made a decision that effectively reinstates an abortion ban in Missouri.
Missouri patients can still access abortion in nearby states, including Illinois and Kansas. Call us at 1-800-230-PLAN or search abortionfinder.org to find the abortion care provider nearest to you.
It gets worse: then these anti-abortion, anti-democracy, & anti-worker #MoLeg Republicans voted to halt the increases to the minimum wage & *taking away* paid sick time that Missourians voted for when we passed Prop A.
We won’t back down. Take the pledge to defend our Right to Reproductive Freedom & to defeat another abortion ban 👇

Complete & utter disregard for Missourians. MoLeg Republicans shut down debate to shove through another abortion ban that will be on the ballot, with shady AF language that *doesn’t even mention it’s an abortion ban* because they know Missourians just voted to REPEAL the abortion ban in November.

The MO Senate is debating an abortion ban *right now*
Take action with @ppgraction.bsky.social & demand your state senator defend the will of the people & vote NO on HJR 73’s abortion ban! www.weareplannedparenthoodaction.org/a/moleg-2025... #MoLeg

Let's be very clear: The Trump administration is not "defending" mifepristone against a legal challenge. They're pulling a calculated move that will allow them to restrict or ban abortion medication without pushback

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid
Really great thread here about the definition of abortion under state bans, how midwives treat with miscarriages, and what Texas stands to gain with this arrest
Recall sitting in the room through this man’s confirmation hearing and hearing an awful lot about raising military standards, standards that had been brought down by DEI.
99-0. Every single senator voted to confirm this ghoul.
There are a bunch of articles like this, which argue that Trump is going after institutions because of their failures.
The reality is Trump is going after institutions - bureaucracy, military, judges, lawyers, media - because he is an authoritarian who wants control.

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

Thank you to everyone who has helped me get here, & to those who are helping (sometimes pushing) me to grow my in my role as policy & advocacy director 💕
Yesterday marked 9 years @ PP in MO. It’s still tough, it’s still worth it, I still feel grateful, & I still have some optimism for the future.
It’s a good time to take a step back & recognize that my younger self is marveling at the opportunities I have to do work that means so much to me.
Friendly Reminder: People don’t have to be pregnant to order ab0rt!on p!lls! 💊
A person in ANY state in the U.S. could hypothetically order them today on a sliding scale of $0 - $150 to have in their medicine cabinet just in case someone needed them at some point over their ~2 year shelf life.
Buried lede: could end HIV if they charged $50 per dose and not $42,000
NEW: Trans people centered themselves in a trans case before a very not trans court. Not only was Chase Strangio arguing Wednesday, but a trans plaintiff was in the courtroom, as were many other trans lawyers, journalists, and observers.
"Trans people were not hidden Wednesday, and that matters."
1. Today at the Supreme Court, Amy Coney Barrett emerged as a potential wild card, with at least one attorney in other LGBTQ+ cases expressing her questioning was curious.
In particular, she seemed surprised to learn about the history of anti-crossdressing laws.

70% of those killed in the genocide in Gaza are women & children. Health care & humanitarian workers say conditions for pregnant women/newborns in particular are only worsening: “Previously Gaza was an open prison, but now it’s fully closed. It’s a cage.” via @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social
