As the U.S. federal government continues its unprecedented attack on Americans' basic health care, states have an opportunity—and an imperative—to step in and protect their residents, says @ReproRights' chief U.S. program officer, Rachana Desai Martin.

I wrote about Emerging Voices, a selection of short stories, novel excerpts, and poems by members of the @MarylandWriters teen writers’ clubs. It's a great way to read pieces by tomorrow's bestsellers, today.

Hope you'll check out my piece with @RepoRights @RachuDM on @KatieCouric Media about the reproductive health and resulting economic impacts of the GOP Medicaid cuts, and how states can fight back. @NewDEALLeaders
*NEW* from our CEO @debbiecoxbultan and @ReproRights Chief Program Officer @RachuDM:
"With Congress stripping Medicaid funding for reproductive health care, states must act now to protect abortion access and stem the deepening post-Roe crisis."

New research shows abortion bans are a workforce crisis. 1 in 5 people planning families have left restrictive states or know someone who has. At #SXSW2025, I’m discussing what companies can do with @DawnLaguens & @DuffStewart

🚨As HHS Secretary, RFK Jr. would directly impact pregnant people's access to essential health care, including maternal heath and miscarriage care. We can't allow an extremist like him in this role. Tell your senators to vote NO on his confirmation: bit.ly/4glbWql

🚨🚨🚨 President Donald Trump has reinstated the Global Gag Rule, a policy that will decrease abortion access WORLDWIDE by blocking U.S. funding to foreign organizations that provide, promote, or discuss abortion care—even for victims of sexual assault.

🚨SOUND THE ALARMS: President-elect Donald Trump has selected Matt Gaetz–who pushed for a nationwide abortion ban–for Attorney General.
But that’s not all he’s done…

Marylanders have shown us tonight: they want their reproductive rights RESTORED AND PROTECTED! We ALL deserve access to basic health care, and we refuse to sit idly by as extremists try to take our reproductive freedom away. 👏
Marylanders overwhelmingly voted in favor of enshrining access to reproductive rights, including abortion, in the state Constitution on Tuesday. According to @AP, about 75% of Maryland voters cast their ballot in favor of Question 1.

More heartbreak.
Today would have been Nevaeh Crain's 20th birthday. She should be here, alive and celebrating with her family, boyfriend, and loved ones. Texas's cruel abortion ban is the reason she isn't, and that cannot be overstated.
New: It took three ER visits and 20 hours before a hospital admitted Nevaeh Crain, 18, as her condition worsened. Doctors insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm “fetal demise.” She's one of at least two Texas women who died under the state's abortion ban. propub.li/40rAXvw
