For 50 years, the Hyde Amendment has restricted abortion coverage for people who rely on Medicaid. When care is unaffordable, reproductive choices become limited. Abortion access should never depend on how much money you have! #EndHyde

We celebrated Mife's birthday early this year for #SMAWeekofAction! We also spotted more MIFE & MISO posters around the city! On Sept 28th, 2000, the FDA approved mifepristone for medication abortion. 26 years later, it is still a safe & effective part of the 2-medication regimen for abortion care.

This #InternationalSafeAbortionDay, we continue the work to: 1. Decriminalize abortion - Tap in with our Decrim Action Team to get active 2. Repeal ALL abortion bans & stop the Pregnancy-to-Prison pipeline #GeorgiaRFA #StopPolicingPregnancy 3. Fight financial barriers - Donate to arc-southeast.org

Majority of Georgians want reproductive freedom. 4 in 5 believe politicians shouldn't interfere in our abortion decisions. That's not a fringe position. That's Georgia. Today we continue organizing Beyond Roe: we're not looking back at what Roe promised. We're building what comes next. #BeyondRoe

Four years after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Georgia's six-week abortion ban is still harming pregnant people—even when the law says they qualify for an “exception” to get legal care. We don't need better exceptions to a dangerous ban. We need the Reproductive Freedom Act. Link in Bio!

Join us for our twice-monthly Decrim Action Team meeting on Tuesday, July 7th at 6PM! This is a space for us to learn about pregnancy criminalization, privacy, and surveillance, and how we can fight back. Invite others who want to learn more about RJ and surveillance! *RSVP Link in bio!

Juneteenth marks the day freedom was finally communicated to enslaved Black people in Texas, more than two years after the end of slavery was declared on paper. The gap between what the law says and what people actually experience is one we know well. It's why we do this work.

Georgia, we're in a General Primary Runoff right now, and there are key races on the ballot that will shape who's on the ticket this fall. If you’re a registered voter in GA, there are runoff elections that need your attention! Find your ballots and polling location at https:/:mvp.sos.ga.gov.

Join us with #SisterSong, #SisterLove, and other community organizers & orgs working to expand healthcare TOMORROW, Friday, June 5th at 7PM at Oak Hill in Piedmont Park (off of 10th St NE) for a vigil to remember all that we’ve lost due to attacks on healthcare.

Last year, Congress passed $1 trillion in healthcare cuts. 15 million people are losing coverage. 446 hospitals are at risk of closing. And we're looking at 51,000 preventable deaths every year. We deserve so much more. HealthIsPrimary #SevenDaysInJune #HealthCutsKill
