In Jan 2020, 5 months in to my PhD program, I had an abortion. I lucked out that there weren’t protesters at planned parenthood that day. I cried myself to sleep that night and took a cume the following morning. I didn’t pass it. 1/7
It was a tough decision for me. I’d been married almost 8 y at the time & have the most wonderful daughter. But I was less than 8 weeks along and already vomiting everyday. I was already struggling to afford daycare costs. I didn’t see a way forward. 2/7
Maybe I could have made it work, but I know I couldn’t have preformed at the level I’ve preformed my PhD thus far. Not to mention the challenge of child care in a COVID world. And what about my other child? The opportunities I could give her would be markedly less. 3/7
We've learned deeply disturbing information: Randall Williams, the director of @GovParsonMO’s Dept. of Health & Senior Services, "kept a spreadsheet to track the menstrual periods of women who visited Planned Parenthood.” kansascity.com/news/politics-… #ShowMeAccess #StandWithPP #MoLeg
@GovParsonMO Missouri politicians have gone too far. Tracking patients' periods is government overreach at its worst and a major violation of privacy.

@GovParsonMO This is more evidence of how @GovParsonMO & his health department have weaponized the licensing process to attack Planned Parenthood & end abortion access in Missouri.

Thank you, @PPFA Seattle for joining me today to speak out against the Trump Administration's dangerous #TitleX gag rule and the ongoing attacks on women’s access to the health care they need. #ProtectX #StandWithPP 
Our fight now isn’t about whether Republicans realize the health care of millions of patients is at stake because of the #TitleX gag rule—they do.
It's about whether they're going to side with President Trump & VP Pence or the women & patients in their own states. #ProtectX

I’ve been fighting back against President Trump’s harmful agenda since the first day of his Administration—and I’ve been fighting for women’s health a lot longer than that. I’m not about to stop any time soon.
For the first time in nearly 50 years, Planned Parenthood is being forced out of the Title X program, meaning people across the country who are already struggling to make ends meet might not be able to access the care they need.
Absolutely devastating.

It’s not just Planned Parenthood. Seven states and the only Title X grantee in Maine have also made clear they CANNOT stay in the program under the gag rule — together with Planned Parenthood, they serve nearly HALF the patients in the program. #ProtectX
Trump’s gag rule is destroying the nation’s decades-old program for affordable birth control and reproductive health care. While the Trump administration may have given up on you, we NEVER will — we’re doing everything we can to make sure patients don’t lose care. #IStandWithPP
Today, the Trump admin is forcing us out of the Title X program — our nation's program focused on family planning, of which we serve 40% of patients. This is a *direct attack* on Planned Parenthood and on our health and rights, and we will not stand for it. #StandWithPP #ProtectX
We’re working to make sure that all patients can still get the health care they need. Contact your local health center to find out how much a service costs and ask if there are other ways to get your care covered: p.ppfa.org/2KSy5j7
We aren’t throwing in the towel & we won’t give up on our patients. Being forced out of Title X won't stop us from referring for or performing abortions, prescribing birth control, or any of our other services. Our doors are open and we are fighting against the gag rule.
The president’s decision endangers tens of thousands of Washingtonians and millions of Americans. This is a radical change to #TitleX, a program with four decades of success providing affordable birth control and reproductive healthcare to patients.

By denying access to Planned Parenthood and other family planning clinics, more than 80,000 people in Washington could lose access to their current doctor. The president is directly interfering in the doctor-patient relationship. #StandWithPP #TitleX #NoGagRule
Trump is forcing doctors, nurses and community health centers to deny treatment referrals and fully legal medical services to their patients, whom they took an oath to serve. This is unacceptable and wrong. #NoGagRule #TitleX #StandWithPP
Title X provides birth control, cancer screenings & HIV tests to over 4M Americans. It doesn’t fund abortions & never has. But today, @realdonaldtrump will issue a “gag” rule that will stop Title X doctors from even talking to their patients about abortion-related services.
.@realdonaldtrump's gag rule is designed to kick providers like Planned Parenthood out of Title X & hold women hostage to the GOP's agenda. Title X patients won't be able to learn about all their reproductive options – worsening health care disparities & reducing access to care.
We're going to keep fighting back against @realdonaldtrump, @VP Pence, and right-wing politicians who want to regulate women's bodies and shut down Planned Parenthood. Women's reproductive health care is health care. Period. #StandwithPP bustle.com/p/the-abortion…
