Your reproductive freedom = your ability to pay your bills.

When you’re DENIED the freedom to access abortion or birth control, you are denied the freedom to decide your own future — and the financial consequences can be devastating. ⬇️
💰 When making the decision to carry a pregnancy and to parent, you consider the added expenses (formula, child care, clothes, etc).

When that choice is taken away from you, it can jeopardize your ability to make ends meet.

📈 The #TurnawayStudy found that women who were denied an abortion & forced to carry a pregnancy have 4x greater odds of living below the Federal Poverty Level.

Years later, these women were more likely to struggle covering BASIC LIVING EXPENSES.

Unable to pay for basic needs = jeopardizing your ability to care for children you may already have.

📊 The study’s data shows that when a parent is denied an abortion, their existing children show worse child development compared to the children of a parent who received one.
Y’all, we don’t live single-issue lives.

By November 8, it is critical that we vote for leaders who are committed to protecting BOTH our reproductive + financial freedom.

How each sign handles election day (spoiler: they all vote)! Send to your friends that need a little inspo 🧵💫
♈ As the first sign, Aries are always prepared. They request their mail-in ballot early, and send it back with weeks to spare.
♉ Taureans enjoy taking things a little slower. They’re ready to vote early in person, finding peace in the scenery as they wait in line.

WE PROMISE GOOD THINGS HAPPENED THIS YEAR.

Really.

Our opponents want us to succumb to despair. But once you know all the good we've done this year — it becomes unimaginable to give up now.

So here are some reasons to be defiantly joyful, if you needed it today.
KS voters came out LOUDLY against abortion bans! When it was directly on the ballot, reproductive freedom won by double digits. This was the first vote on abortion after the fall of Roe — and anti-abortion extremists have good reason to be afraid.

Facing the possibility of a future without Roe v. Wade, states across the country did everything they could to resist: by working to limit the threats to patients and providers of out-of-state prosecution.

Planned Parenthood Votes has the receipts 🧾💅 Want to know the politicians running for office who have *mysteriously* changed their stance on abortion rights since they realized voters are NOT on their side?

Let’s take a walk down memory lane… ➡️
Blake Masters, running for U.S. Senate in Arizona, wiped his website clean of any mention of his support for a national abortion ban.

Funny thing: his website said he supported a national abortion ban just two weeks ago ❗️❗️

Barbara Kirkmeyer, who is running for Congress in Colorado, also removed her extremist abortion views from her campaign website.

Interesting how these candidates changed their views on abortion AFTER the primary, hm?

It's been nearly a month since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, opening the floodgates for states across the country to ban abortion. So, what's changed and how does it impact you?

Here's your post-Roe recap ​​🧵
Right now ➡️ there is a total ban on abortion in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas.

Florida, Kentucky, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah & now Georgia have bans in place at various points of pregnancy.
As people are forced to travel hundreds, even thousands, of miles to access abortion care — providers are being harassed and threatened with criminal charges for providing abortion, even in states like Indiana where abortion is STILL LEGAL.

Why are we on the road for Roe?

B/c a lot of people don't know that we could lose the basic right to legal abortions in just a few months.

After all: SCOTUS solidified the constitutional right to abortion in the Roe v. Wade case nearly 50yrs ago.🧵 ppact.io/3gxYAL1
Our message is simple: our bodies, our futures, our abortions.

We need to expand access to abortion. And that means we have to start by defending the right to abortion, period. #BansOffOurBodies
Millions of people in 26 states could lose the right to legal abortion if Roe is overturned. Stay tuned the next few weeks to hear from some of the people working fearlessly to get you the health care you deserve ❤️

Today, @GovAbbott signed #SB8, a dangerous law that would ban abortion before most people even know they are pregnant.

The majority of Texans support access to safe and legal abortion—but politicians are *still* attacking abortion access.
#SB8’s signing comes two days after the Supreme Court’s announcement that it will consider a Mississippi case challenging a ban on abortion after 15 weeks — putting Roe v. Wade in danger and 25 million people at risk of losing abortion access.
In 2021, legislators obsessed with attacking and undermining abortion access & reproductive freedom introduced more than 500 anti-abortion bills.

We will *never* stop fighting back against this cruel extremism and will do everything we can to ensure access to reproductive care.
