As @prh.org fellow, Dr. Verma, said “ we should not pretend that this is an issue of the science.”
@acog.org: “complication or death risk from an abortion procedure “is less than the same risk from common procedures like wisdom tooth removal, cancer-screening colonoscopy, and plastic surgery.”

Anyway, in conclusion, at this very moment, someone in red America is taking abortion medications out of a bulk supply in their closet and putting it in a nondescript envelope to mail.
This will continue to happen regardless of what the Senate does or doesn't do next.

Amazing moment in Dr. Nisha Verma of @prh.org's testimony:
She discloses that she herself took these medications after suffering a "devastating pregnancy loss" a few months ago.

Louisiana AG Liz Murrill bemoans that telemedicine Rx plus shield laws allowing Rx across state lines lead to 900 abortions a month in LA; some folks later go to emergency room.

Folks, it’s high time we cleared something up: abortion pills and “morning after” pills are two different things.
You take the morning after pill when you have the ingredients for tacos.
You take abortion pills when you have an existing taco you don’t want to or can’t have.

if you are “pro-choice” and also transphobic, you are not serious about undoing the control, white supremacy, and patriarchy that make abortion bans possible and you are certainly no ally to bodily autonomy or self-determination

Abortion is health care, but it can also be an act of hope or a prayer or a wish or a Hail Mary for the lives patients want to protect or build or keep imagining. Some people don’t want to be pregnant, they have an abortion, they go on to lead the lives they imagined. Abortion is worth celebrating.

I hate the Hyde Amendment and you should too! It prohibits federal funds, like Medicaid, from being used to pay for abortion care. It sucks soooo bad.

Science, not politics, should guide medical care. Yet the Trump administration and RFK Jr. are spreading false claims about Tylenol that create fear and confusion for pregnant patients. Know this: The science is settled. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy.

The same bs they're spewing about autism and tylenol is the same bs they're spewing about trans people's healthcare. It's the exact same playbook and the fact that the media can see through one and not the other is a damning indictment of how complicit they are in the attack on trans lives.

Our patients trust us to protect their health and dignity. Political assaults like those from RFK Jr. and the Trump administration only heighten obstetric pain and violence and endanger lives. As physicians, we stand by the evidence: Tylenol is safe. @prh.org
Trump, citing no evidence at all, suggests Tylenol during pregnancy is linked to autism
He says the FDA will recommend pregnant women avoid using the painkiller unless “medically necessary"

Abortion rights shouldn’t be a bargaining chip lawmakers use to negotiate what they consider to be “legitimate” political issues. Abortion is inextricably linked with economic, climate, and health care policy. It is a legitimate political issue. You bend on abortion, you’ll bend on anything.
