** CfA's August 28, 2020 Newsletter
------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your continued support of CfA. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are still working to hold the powerful accountable.


**
Our Latest Efforts:
------------------------------------------------------------
* #BadFaithMedicine: This week CfA joined Reproaction and other reproductive health advocates in calling out the deceitful practices of anti-abortion fake clinics. These clinics not only refuse to offer comprehensive reproductive health services, but also recommend dangerous and unproven treatments like the "abortion reversal pill."
+ In May, CfA called on the FDA ([link removed]) to stop anti-choice websites from promoting these pills.


* Demand Fake Clinics Return PPP Loans: We also joined Abortion Access Front and Daily Kos in demanding that these fake clinics return their COVID-19 PPP loans. Fake clinic networks Heartbeat International and Obria were both recipients of this aid, while actual healthcare provider Planned Parenthood was forced to give back $60 million because of the Title X “gag rule” implemented in 2019.
+ Sign the Petition! ([link removed])


-----------------------------------------------
To keep these projects going, we rely on grassroots supporters like you. Every donation — no matter how small — allows us to keep the work going.

** What We're Reading:
------------------------------------------------------------
* Facebook Employees Are Outraged At Mark Zuckerberg's Explanations Of How It Handled The Kenosha Violence: “Following days of violence and civil unrest, Facebook employees wonder if their company is doing enough to stifle militia and QAnon groups stoking violence on the social network.” (BuzzFeed News ([link removed]) , August 28)
* USPS delays threaten women’s access to birth control: "Changes in U.S. Postal Service operations have disrupted everything from baby chicks on their way to farmers to prescriptions sent via the Veterans Administration. For some who rely on the postal service, the delays have interfered with an equally important delivery: birth control. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 12.6% of American women between the ages of 15 and 49 take an oral contraceptive; thousands of those women receive their pills by mail." (Fortune ([link removed]) , August 27)
* Apple rejects Facebook app that tells users that Apple takes 30% cut of in-app purchases: "Apple rejected one of Facebook’s new app updates, Facebook confirmed to CNBC on Friday. The app tried to inform users that Apple collects 30% of in-app purchases from a new online events feature." (CNBC ([link removed]) , August 28)
