Hi john,
We know these past two weeks have been a shit sundae with a Matt Gaetz cherry on top for all of us. But our only option is to lace up our ass-kicking boots and get to work. It will take a lot of commitment to create the world we all deserve… so get ready! Whatever fuckery comes at us, we’ve got your back. Knowledge is power, so we’ve gotta stay one step ahead of their evil plans. First, let’s check out some incredible badasses who refuse to be silent!
Kentucky: Fifth in Goat Farming, First in FAFO
In the hard times, take heart from the people changing the landscape – like this currently pregnant Kentucky plaintiff who is suing [[link removed]] over the state’s near-total abortion ban AND six-week ban. Forced to begin planning for out-of-state abortion care, the plaintiff’s lawsuit is also seeking class-action status for all people who cannot access abortion care in Kentucky! Suing the state AND bringing everyone with her? We stan.
IdaHOPE YOU’RE READY FOR THIS LAWSUIT
We are in awe of the bravery of Idaho plaintiffs suing the state [[link removed]] who say Idaho’s abortion ban directly harmed them. While it pisses us off that these folks are forced to tell their heartbreaking stories in the public eye (why are we only allowed autonomy when there’s trauma?), we can only hope that the court listens and truly understands that abortion bans only cause harm wherever they’re enacted!
An image of a courtroom scene. The wooden doors to the courtroom are open, revealing the inside, which features wooden benches and a judge's bench. In the foreground is the back of a character in a white tank top, depicted in a 3D animated style, standing in the doorway. Above them is bold yellow text with a black outline that reads, ''PEOPLE DENIED ABORTIONS HEADING BACK INTO COURT TO RELIVE THEIR TRAUMA JUST SO THEY CAN HAVE BASIC HEALTHCARE.'' Below the character, in white text, it says, ''Ah shit, here we go again.'' In the bottom right corner is a red square with ''AF'' in black text. [[link removed]]
Well, It Can’t All Be Arya Stark Slaying White Walkers, and This Bit of News Will Make Your Head Explode
Buckle up. A newly published study [[link removed]] shows us that not only do fake clinics outnumber real clinics at least 3-to-1, but that more than a quarter of women ages 15 to 49 live within fifteen miles of only a fake clinic and no actual abortion clinics! How many of those people only live near an abortion clinic and not a fake clinic? 0.8%. Not only that, but the average distance between fake clinics and abortion clinics is only A LITTLE OVER FIVE MILES. We’ve known all along that fake clinics specifically open near actual clinics to better trick and mislead abortion seekers, and it’s about time more people called them out on it!!
NOW, SOME WAYS YOU CAN FIGHT BACK!
Yeah, that pisses us off, too, friends – so check out our Activist Calendar below to turn that outrage into action!
