The way pregnant people, especially Black pregnant people, are treated is atrocious. How do you send someone home from a C section aka intense abdominal surgery with just Tylenol and ibuprofen?!?

NEW: ProPublica has found multiple cases of women with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

Tierra Walker, a 37-year-old mother, was told by doctors there was no emergency before preeclampsia killed her.

@nytimes.com—women didn't ruin the workplace, but sexual harassment, lack of equal pay, pregnancy discrimination, gender bias, lack of advancement and leadership opportunities, double standards, microaggressions, unaffordable child care, & the glass ceiling certainly did

LOCAL ELECTION RESULT:

Let me congratulate @zysaidso.bsky.social for her election to the Charlottesville School Board.

For those wondering: Zyahna Bryant was a student organizer who led the successful fight in removing two confederate statues from downtown Charlottesville.

Medicaid is the largest payer of reproductive health care services, but it’s under attack.

Gov. Abbott just signed HB7, set to take effect Dec 4, 2025. It targets medication abortion, encourages lawsuits against helpers, and chills and confuses providers. But Texans support Texans—our doors stay open. Care is not a crime.

Alarmingly, Black student enrollment is decreasing in the University of Michigan's psychology doctoral program. In my year (last year), there were 5 of us. This year, there is 1 student, representing 2% of the entire cohort.

Let's be clear: our collective failure to normalize abortion as vital healthcare (including among liberals) leaves abortion providers and pro-abortion legislators uniquely vulnerable.

Texas Republicans are advancing an anti-trans bill that they're calling the "Women's Bill of Rights."

I'm not from Texas, but I'm willing to bet the women there are more interested in not dying from a septic miscarriage than being 'protected' from trans women in bathrooms
