"It’s no coincidence this uptick in violence is happening alongside a rise in extremist policy attempts to strip women and LGBTQIA+ people of the fundamental rights that allow them to occupy an equal place in society, like access to abortion care or affordable child care."
The Rise in Political Violence Against Women is No Coincidence—These Threats Are Meant to Remove Power from Women
The past few years have seen a troubling rise in political violence toward women in the United States, targeting their participation in civic life. Whether they are legislators, judges, candidates, or election officials, women in the political sphere have experienced increased and frightening levels of threats and violence.

Excellent tips
Reminder when donating to food banks:
Look for -
Vegetarian
Gluten free
Ethnic
Diabetic friendly
etc
Try to get stuff that *doesn't* need to be mixed with something (like milk, butter, etc) in case they don't have that.
Donate spices!!
Lots of folks donate beans, pasta, etc. A variety is good.

When you triage as many cases as as we & @projectex.me do through our joint Community Care initiative, you understand how many lives are saved & helped through simple access to reproductive healthcare like this. This helps communities and reduces trauma for DV survivors. Forced labor has a name. 💁🏾
I made a promise to the women of Illinois — as governor, I will ensure your medical decisions will be your own.
Now, we continue fulfilling that promise.
Public colleges will now provide contraception and medication abortion at on-campus pharmacies and student health centers.
