As Rachael Lorenzo, the @iwrising.bsky.social Co-Executive Director, shares, in many Indigenous communities abortion & repro health are not just protected – they're sacred. But systemic inequities, forced assimilation, & racism threaten the repro autonomy of Indigenous people. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
Bodily autonomy doesn’t exist if your reproductive health care data is being shared without your consent! The fight for #dataprivacy is a vital component in the fight for reproductive freedom.
This is why NIRH is working to advance local legislation to protect health data and curb surveillance 💪
Independent clinics are the backbone of the reproductive freedom movement. They keep their communities safe and thriving by continuing to provide health care, even in the face of political attacks.
NIRH applauds the South Carolinians that used their voices to speak out against what could become the nation’s most restrictive anti-abortion legislation. If passed, SB323 will have devastating consequences.
Newsflash, RFK Jr 📢: The “safety studies” for medication abortion that you’re asking for ALREADY EXIST! There are over a hundred peer-reviewed studies that show abortion pills are unequivocally safe to use.
The attack on repro health care runs so deep that rightwing politicians are willing to shut down the government and let subsidies expire just to avoid providing affordable health care
The federal government made it clear that they won’t protect people’s access to care, so now it’s up to the states.
Today marks 49 years since the Hyde Amendment was enacted – a law that prohibits federal funds like Medicaid from being used to cover nearly all abortions.
NIRH is proud to partner with orgs like Whole Woman's Health Alliance who are working in their state to change the public insurance landscape.👏
We aim to create a world where everyone can safely share their reproductive health care journey without fear of judgment or criminalization. Thank you @margaret_cho for continuing to talk about abortion care 🧡
This #WorldContraceptionDay, let’s remember that birth control isn't just about preventing pregnancy, it's about personal freedom and taking control of our reproductive health!
Let’s spread awareness: share in the comments below why you love your contraception 🧡
As the Trump administration strips away health care, Washington will replace Planned Parenthood’s lost Medicaid funding w state $, helping patients access abortion care, cancer screenings, contraception + STI treatments!
This is the kind of state intervention needed as health care attacks continue.
In this latest effort to control pregnant people, the Trump administration aims to stir confusion and spread health misinformation. This is not the first time and won’t be the last.
The evidence is clear: #tylenol is safe and effective during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Every day is the perfect day to uplift our providers, midwives, doulas, and everyone else who provides reproductive health care! We rely on them and the work they do, and they need our appreciation and gratitude now more than ever. We love ya!
There is not just ONE reproductive journey, which is why we need ALL options! Reproductive freedom is about giving people the opportunity to live the life they deserve. Thank you to @mellyfumero.bsky.social for sharing her family's story 🧡
Health-tracking tech has become a part of our everyday lives – and protecting our personal data collected by these tools has never been more critical. Sensitive health information, including reproductive health data, are being collected, shared, and sold to third parties, including the government.
Fact: The majority of people who have abortions already are or go on to become parents. Thank you #halsey for reminding us that abortions save lives and everyone needs access to abortion care. 🧡
NIRH has created the Repro and Data Privacy Policy Lab - a cross-movement collaboration, bringing together repro orgs and data privacy orgs to address the growing threat of repro health data misuse.
NIRH applauds the hard work of Amplify Georgia, Feminist Center for Reproductive Liberation, and ARC Southeast, for helping DeKalb County become the FIRST county in Georgia to fund reproductive health care. 🥳
State-level policy WINS that expand abortion access are 🔑 to building a future where repro autonomy is a reality for all. NIRH has created the Abortion Coverage Policy Lab to curb attacks and expand access!
