Every person deserves the freedom to decide if, when, and how to become a parent. As a gay man who's the parent of two amazing young women, I feel this personally.

That’s why I’ll never stop fighting to protect access to birth control and abortion care.

The facts are clear: Mifepristone is safe and effective.

The infamous EPPC report, which is not peer-reviewed, manipulates data to call mifepristone’s safety into question. It is a political document, not a scientific one.

The Heritage Foundation is calling on HHS head Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to commission a safety study on oral contraception. It’s another political stunt.

Oral contraceptives are one of the best-studied and safest medications on the market today.

The science is abundantly clear: Mifepristone is very safe and effective, whether provided in clinic, via telehealth and mailed, or by filling a prescription at a local pharmacy.

Any attempts to roll back access have nothing to do with safety. It’s about control.

Laws that restrict abortion care put physicians under increasing stress and surveillance, complicating the standard medical treatments for miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, preterm rupture of membranes, and other pregnancy problems.
Iowa doesn't have enough OB-GYNs. Is the state's abortion ban part of the problem?
Iowa ranks last among states for the number of OB-GYNS per capita. State legislators are trying to recruit more, but some doctors say the state's strict abortion ban is partially to blame.

The FDA is conducting a senseless inquiry into the safety of mifepristone, the abortion medication first approved in the U.S. 25 years ago.

The science is clear: Mifepristone is extremely safe and effective. Let’s talk about it ⬇️#AbortionAccurate
