We have a win to celebrate! This week we saw a big win in Kansas to protect abortion rights because everyday people like you stood up, voted, and made their voices heard! Now – in no small part due to your efforts – we have an opportunity to help move another wave of progress forward with the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes health care, climate change, prescription drug pricing reductions, and more (Scroll down to see the actions you can take on this). Protecting the health of our families and communities, as well as the climate are key. Everyone gets sick, and everyone should have a...

As summer days heat up, we remain fired up to campaign for policies that lift hard-working families, not undermine us: Access to comprehensive paid family/medical leave must be in addition to making abortion care available, not instead of it. Access to the healthcare we need must remain affordable and our right to abortion care must be restored because all medical care is healthcare and no one should be denied it. This is why right now it is necessary for us to raise our collective voices and be heard; to compel Congress to take action, as well as the President and his Administration to...

Summer is in full swing – and the fight for our rights is still very much on. So while you soak in some sun, we ask that you take these quick health and justice related actions: We must ensure everyone who needs abortion care has access to this care, that healthcare remains affordable and prices don’t rise to levels that the average family can’t afford, and that maternal mental health services and research is funded and accessible in an equitable way. (Historically, women’s health research has been underfunded resulting in major disparities especially in Maternal Mental Health.) Lastly,...

Our response was straightforward and affirming, "Okay, thanks for letting us know." We worked out the details of pronouns and names and that was that. Emails were sent to school and extended family, there was a Facebook post. We sought trans affirming medical care. Life went forward.

It was July 21, 2021, and my son, Brandon, had just turned fifteen two weeks before. As I sat in the pediatric therapy office and listened to what I already knew, what I had been fighting for with doctors and insurance red tape for what seemed like forever, I was in anger and disbelief at just how badly the entire system had failed my child.

It’s been hard. While field days and graduations both signal the end of the school year and the transition into summer camps and backyard BBQs, the pandemic remains a constant force in our lives and we need to keep the pressure on Congress to address the emergency that so many of us continue to live in.
