Y'all, the shit is hitting the fan.

On Wednesday, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals became the first ever US federal court to uphold a ban on D&E (dilation and evacuation), the standard method of abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. This unprecedented move by a federal court means that doctors in Texas who provide abortion care after 15 weeks could go to PRISON.

Read the Center for Reproductive Rights' full statement of WTF happened right here.
 

This decision comes on top of an already looming SIX-week ban set to go into effect in Texas on September 1st.

Abortion conspiracy theories like "abortion reversal," breast cancer links, and these latest bans are nothing more than medical quackery designed to end abortion and worse, make it a crime for a doctor to provide the best care they can for their patients.

Today I took to Instagram Live with my conspirators Moji Alawode-El and Marie Khan to break down what's happening and what's at stake.

Check it out and please follow and DONATE to Texas abortion providers, funds, and legal supports as they navigate this shitstorm over the next few weeks. 

In solidarity,
Lizz
