Abortion access is healthcare. Anyone who believes otherwise is choosing to be willfully ignorant about the realities of pregnancy, birth, & raising children. Or hateful. Or both! I don’t love speaking in absolutes but lives are on the line in Texas and anywhere else that follows

as a lawyer, my deepest desire is that people do not wait for lawyers to litigate abortion rights. for those who can, we need people to join organizations that engage in creative direct actions to put pressure on courts, congress, and whomever else threatens our freedoms
