🧵In the 1970s, at least a quarter of Native women of childbearing age were sterilized without their consent–many without their knowledge.
Most of the procedures happened thru Indian Health Service–the federal program that is supposed to deliver health care to tribal citizens.

Today marks Trans Day of Remembrance. This day is an opportunity to remember and mourn our trans siblings who have been lost to hate and violence.

As we honor their legacy and remember the past, we can seize their courage and use it to create a brighter and safer future for all of us.

Despite what lawmakers in your states say about abortion or their efforts to block abortion access, you DO have rights!

The defeat of S. 323 is worth celebrating. But no victory is permanent. When the full legislature returns in January, we'll be ready to show up, speak out, and fight back as lawmakers continue launching new attacks on our bodily autonomy, privacy, and free speech. Stay with us.

The total abortion ban bill is dead. The struggle for our reproductive freedom continues.

Senate Bill 323, which equated abortion with homicide, was rejected by a Senate subcommittee on Nov. 18 after thousands of South Carolinians spoke out against its dangerous and unconstitutional provisions.
