Act Now

The Trump administration has proposed a rule that would attempt to
roll back the Health Care Rights Law's protections, which
prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex in health care settings.
If the administration succeeds in rolling back the Health Care Rights
Law...
* A provider could refuse to treat an unmarried pregnant person
because of their marital status.
* A transgender person could be turned away because of their
gender identity.
* A patient could be denied treatment because a provider objects
to whom they love or how they present themselves.
The public comment period on the proposed rule is now open, and we
have until midnight on August 13th to submit as many comments as
possible opposing it. The clock is ticking.
Submit an official comment to help prevent discrimination in health
care.

On Our Docket
*
After a four-year-long
fight, the High Court of Kenya issued a groundbreaking ruling
declaring that the constitutional rights of Kenyan women and
girls were blatantly violated by the unlawful withdrawal of the
Standards and Guidelines on safe abortion.
*
We filed two new cases last
week: one challenging Georgia's 6-week abortion ban and
another challenging a North Dakota law that would force
physicians to lie to their patients by telling them that
medication abortion can be "reversed."
*
We filed a case challenging
the discriminatory practice of forced pregnancy testing and
expulsion of schoolgirls in Tanzania.
