Americans are already struggling with rising costs. We need Republicans to get back to DC and work with us to get critical services up and running while stopping healthcare premiums from doubling.

Republicans are pushing debunked anti-abortion propaganda as an excuse to rip mifepristone off the shelves and block women from getting abortion care.

100+ studies prove mifepristone is safe and effective.

SPEAK UP, we can't let them get away with this.

Nearly All GOP Senators Urge the FDA to Restrict Abortion Pills

The senators are asking the FDA to suspend its approval of generic mifepristone, which would heavily restrict access to abortion pills nationwide.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.
