LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.

When pregnancy outcomes and miscarriage care become criminalized and surveilled, Black & Brown people are forced to bear the brunt of the burden. @abortionforward.org @abortionfundofohio.bsky.social

In 2018, Gloria Steinem joined the effort to prevent Toledo’s last abortion clinic from closing. She publicly urged a local hospital to approve the patient-transfer agreement Capital Care Network needed under state regulations to continue operating.

There was no one like her. Dolly Pardon has died. She was 80. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/25/a...

In Part Two of our Ohio Repro Says #FlockNo series, we explore the very real risks AI-powered surveillance poses to the folks helping abortion seekers get the care they need. @abortionforward.org @abortionfundofohio.bsky.social

Crisis pregnancy centers often present themselves as medical clinics, but most aren't licensed medical facilities and most don't employ licensed medical staff. Before you go, know what kind of care you're actually getting.

Reporting from Statehouse News Bureau's @joingles1.bsky.social: Abortion rights advocates fear Flock cameras could track women seeking abortions in Ohio

Protect our privacy. End warrantless spying. m.youtube.com/watch?v=pkM_...

For the ACLU of Ohio, there is only one true solution to properly solving problems and addressing concerns. That is, ending the use of, and banning, ALPRs by the City of Columbus.

Witness @gdanielsohio.bsky.social from @acluohio.bsky.social explains to Columbus City Council the myriad reasons that Flock and other automated license plate readers are entirely inappropriate in our communities.

Tonight I will speak at the Columbus Flock hearing to make 4 basic points - 1) The best & requested outcome is an ALPR ban, 2) This is not just a Flock problem, 3) This is not just an ALPR problem, 4) If no ban, then (finally) super tight regulation. www.wosu.org/politics-gov...

No matter where we are on the political spectrum, we should all be able to agree: Our privacy should never be traded for profit.

The hearing has begun! Tune in and watch the live stream here: www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

🛑Tell @cbuscitycouncil.bsky.social -- no more Flock cameras! A special public hearing begins at 4pm. Tell our elected officials to protect our privacy rights and get rid of this shadowy surveillance technology: action.aclu.org/send-message...

Hanging out in City Hall for a change… testifying on how dangerous Flock cameras and other automated license plate readers (ALPRs) are for reproductive health privacy and are an invasion of our privacy.

Happening now: Columbus residents on our @abortionforward.org are joining hundreds our friends and neighbors to oppose the use of Flock during a special hearing of Columbus City Council:

Each year, IVF helps thousands of Ohioans have the families they deserve. However, Republicans in Congress want to limit access to the treatment. I'm fighting to pass the Right to IVF Act and guarantee that protection under the law.

Birthright citizenship is safe. Roberts with the opinion in Trump v. Barbara. Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch dissenting. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled that states can ban transgender girls from school sports. This is a devastating ruling for trans students across the country who simply want the freedom to play with their friends.

Here is the court's opinion: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p... Barrett and the liberals join Roberts in full. Kavanaugh concurs in the judgment because he finds that a federal statute bars Trump's executive order.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court holds that the Fourteenth Amendment protects birthright citizenship, blocking Donald Trump's executive order to end it. Roberts has the opinion for the court, which is 5-4 on the constitutional question and 6-3 on whether federal law protects birthright citizenship.
