I'm LIVID....

A Florida judge ruled that a sixteen-year-old child isn't "sufficiently mature" for an abortion, but she IS sufficiently mature to carry a pregnancy to term and give birth. I want to scream: MAKE THIS MAKE SENSE, but that's the thing — you can't. It's nonsensical. The only way to justify …

You won't believe Abigail Spanberger's opponent said this...

  John, Abigail Spanberger is one of our great frontline Congresswomen running in a really tough seat in Virginia. As if the stakes weren't high enough, Abigail's opponent was recently caught on tape AGREEING with the claim that women can't get pregnant from rape. Newsflash: that's a l…

Tell Congress: keep 👏 up 👏 the 👏 energy

Congress accomplished a lot of amazing things over the summer. These bills will make a huge difference for folks across the country. BUT, none of them address the fact that in June, women lost a fundamental right to make decisions about their own bodies.  That's why we put on together a l…

soooooooo....

We knew Congressional Republicans were majorly problematic. But they have been ESPECIALLY unhinged in the last couple of months. This year, Republican's greatest hits include: ✅ Blocking a bill that would cap life-saving insulin at $35 ✅ Blocking a bill that would allow women to…

This Congresswoman is coming off a BIG win

  John, Meet Mikie Sherrill. She's a former Navy Pilot, a mom of four, and an incredible Congresswoman for New Jersey. She's also coming off of a series of huge legislative accomplishments — all of which Republicans repeatedly tried to block. The GOP is targeting Mikie's seat, but we n…

FROM: John

After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, President Joe Biden signed an executive order to protect reproductive health care providers, ensure patient privacy, and create an interagency task force. It was a great start, but it wasn't enough.  We've put together a list of eight concre…

✏️ SIGN ON:✏️ Tell Biden to take action to protect abortion rights

As part of HER Time's Guide to a Post-Roe World, we created petitions as a way to demand short-term political action from our leaders. Women's lives are on the line now, which means we cannot wait until November to protect abortion rights. The Executive Order passed by President Biden in …

Our fall fashion predictions...

  Here's the thing: People like being able to choose what they do with their own bodies — whether that's what they wear or if they reproduce. So, this fall we're predicting the biggest fashion trend will be *~reproductive freedom~*. If you're looking to get in ahead of the curve, want t…

Our most helpful to-do list

Seriously. When Roe v. Wade was officially overturned by the Supreme Court, it was really hard to know how to fight back — and how to make a real impact. So here at HER Time HQ, we started with the basics: making a list. And thus, HER Time's Guide to a Post-Roe World was created! …

Why we love Sharice Davids SO much

  In case you haven't heard of her yet, John, Sharice Davids is an INCREDIBLE Congresswoman from Kansas. And she's coming off a big win in her state. On Tuesday, Kansas resoundingly rejected a ballot measure that would've outlawed abortion statewide. This is a big win for abortion right…

John — We wanted to make sure you had a chance to read Katie's new op-ed, where she describes how HER Time is planning to respond to this new, post-Roe world. Helping elect pro-choice candidates in the midterms isn't enough. We need to be taking action NOW to protect our reproductive freedom. Yo…

My new op-ed

  When Donald Trump was elected, we feared it would be the end of Roe v Wade. When Brett Kavanaugh was appointed, we knew conservatives would have enough votes to get their way. And when the Dobbs opinion leaked in May, our worst fears were confirmed. But NONE of that compared to how i…

IT'S NOT ABOUT ABORTIONS

  Last week, the House of Representatives passed a bill that would enshrine the right to contraception in federal law. We can't emphasize this enough: this is an INCREDIBLY basic bill. All it does is protect access to birth control while still leaving abortion access up to the states. A…

Great, more bad news for women 🙄

This is hard to write

The consequences of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade have been immediate and awful. Take the case of a TEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL in Ohio who was forced to travel out of state for an abortion after she was raped — because she was just three days over the six-week abortion ban. …

"Independence Day" 😒

It’s the Fourth of July, John, and I’ll be honest. I don't feel like celebrating. Calling today “Independence Day” when millions of women are being denied their own bodily autonomy across the country is a joke — and I’m not laughing. Instead, I’m taking a different lesson from our Founde…
