Hi john,

The sun is shining, and we’re basking in the sunlight AND all of the pro-abortion badassery we get to be a part of! In the last two weeks, we hosted THE incredible Elie Mystal for a very special conversation about abortion, connected with Philly at the ’No One Asked You’ screening at the Philadelphia Independent Film Fest, and our founder Lizz Winstead and Board Member Joyelle Johnson emceed the Champions for Choice Luncheon for one of our favorite impactful orgs, National Institute for Reproductive Health Action Fund (NIRHAction)! Tired? Nah…we’re ENERGIZED! This is the best community.

Collage of three photos from a community event. The top photo shows a woman laughing joyfully at a podium, with books and a floral decoration in the foreground, next to another woman laughing, looking at the man seated next to her. The bottom right photo captures a presentation in a hall, where two women, one with short hair and one with long hair, are seated in front of an audience, engaging in discussion. The bottom left photo shows a table with Abortion AF stickers, lit, and a QR code for the doc 'No One Asked You'.

Collage from an award ceremony. The top left photo features a graphic of Andrea Miller, displayed on a large screen ini the front of an audience. The top right photo show Joyelle Johnson and Lizz Winstead on stage behind a podium, underneath a screen with their names and photos on it. The bottom photo shows a group of nine people posing together, smiling at the camera, with a lush green backdrop featuring the text 'Abortion Access for All'.

MISSOURI: MORE LIKE MISERY, AMIRITE?
You’d think that, having banned all abortions already, Missouri electeds would, idk, find a better hobby than blocking Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthoods, yet here we are! Y’all- THEY AREN’T EVEN DOING ABORTIONS ANYMORE, they’re literally just removing necessary healthcare options to be even more evil? Is this not obvious to anyone else??

[Illustration from a cartoon showing two characters holding books. The character on the left, with wild black hair, holds a book labeled 'MISSOURI FACTS' and grins mischievously. The character on the right, wearing glasses and a black shirt, holds a sign that reads, 'IF YOU TAKE AWAY MEDICAID FROM ABORTION PROVIDERS YOU'RE ONLY STOPPING ACCESS TO CANCER SCREENINGS AND STI TESTING, NOT ABORTIONS.' The background suggests a wooden interior.

KANSAS POLITICIANS: VOTERS SAID WHAT NOW?
ABORTION IS A WINNING ISSUE- have we said that enough yet? Clearly not in Kansas, where lawmakers recently passed several anti-abortion measures, despite Kansans overwhelmingly rejecting a proposed constitutional amendment that would have enabled lawmakers to ban abortion in 2022. It’s almost like…they don’t actually care what their citizens want, and are going to push their own extremist agenda no matter what. Imagine that.

Are you mad now? GOOD! Take that righteous anger and do some good with it! Check out our Activist Calendar below, and our urgent calls to action!

A promotional image advocating for access to safe and free abortion for European women. The top section has a green background with text in white reading, 'EU, ensure access to safe and free abortion for millions of European women now.' There is an illustration of a hand with a pink sleeve and a red heart above it. To the right, there is a black box with white text that says, 'My Voice My Choice.' Below, the yellow text on a black background reads, 'myvoice-mychoice.org.' The bottom half shows a close-up of a person with curly blonde hair, wearing large black-framed glasses, and speaking directly to the camera. Text on the image reads, 'and they need a million signatures by June 9th.'

We can’t stress enough how important it is to show up for everyone living without abortion access- our collective solidarity goes beyond mere borders.
