Dear John,

I'm writing to let you know that our efforts calling for the Biden-Harris administration to take immediate action expanding access to reproductive health care are already paying off.

Today, the Administration issued their first executive orders and presidential memorandums addressing access to health care, including reproductive health care. This is just the beginning.

Rescinding the global gag rule and the important first step of undoing the harmful domestic gag rule are critical for patients accessing health care in the U.S. and around the world. Pregnant people need accurate information about their options and referrals right away. No one should be denied information, no matter where they’re receiving care, their source of insurance, their income, or the health care services needed–especially time sensitive care like pregnancy care.

This is an important first step but we need more. We call on the administration to: omit harmful coverage bans on abortion care like the Hyde Amendment in the Presidential budget, remove medically unnecessary restrictions on medication abortion, continue to restore the Affordable Care Act and expand its reach to provide communities equitable, fair health care coverage, and act swiftly to get communities the COVID-19 relief they need.

The last four years have been incredibly harmful when it comes to health care, racial justice, immigrant rights, LGBTQ rights, and many other issues. It will take time and work to reverse the damage and improve outcomes for all people.

As physician advocates, we are excited to partner with supporters like you and the Biden-Harris administration to achieve our vision of a world where people can access care they need regardless of their zip code, income level, or source of insurance.
