Hi John,

This month, we have been grappling with the devastating impacts that abortion bans have had on beloved members of our communities. As we mourn these losses, our resolve must deepen every day to end abortion stigma and its deadly consequences. We remain unwavering in our fight to protect and expand access to essential health care, and for that care to be prompt, compassionate, effective, and shame-free.

Learn more about what we are doing to protect access to medication abortion here.
