Contraception is a fundamental part of reproductive healthcare — yet my opponent voted against protecting the right to birth control.
Virginia — as Governor, I will sign the Right to Contraception Act into law.

Before Obamacare, being a woman was a pre-existing condition, including coverage denial for domestic violence, contraception, pregnancy, and certain cancers. You could be charged more for insurance premiums just for being female. It was called a 'gender rating'.

Heritage is coming for the pill.
The co-authors are both employed by that organization.
Here, they throw everything at hormonal contraception: it makes you depressed, makes you gain weight, makes you less attractive to men, and (without evidence) maybe it harms boys.

Politics is getting hairy so ... A thread of amazing Scottish foremothers who knew being divisive is the path to change. 1st, Rose Klasko Kerrigan, sacked at 14 for speaking against WWI. She scandalized Glasgow’s only birth control clinic by seeking contraception before she had kids. /1

Trump locked everyone who works in the country’s family planning program out of their office and gov emails last week. This program provides contraception, testing for diseases and basic infertility care. He’s taking away essential health care from millions of women.

Giving people gift bags of emergency contraception, condoms, pregnancy tests after their breakups, divorces, has truly brought so much light to my life. The recipient is always so surprised and over the moon. Be happy and well!

The Title X Family Planning Program cannot cover abortions due to the Hyde Amendment.
But it does cover contraception and family counseling.
There's plenty of money allocated for IVF and pregnancy services elsewhere, but nothing is mentioned about contraception in the entire document.

Yeah, this has long been one of their strategies to go after medication abortion and contraception. It’s easy to laugh at water-abortion until you realize they’re actually making policy off of it.

He's already trying to push placebo trials for vaccines/treatments that are established to be effective (not dissimilar to the logic behind the Tuskegee "trial"). I can absolutely see a push to do the same with oral contraception.

After making tax breaks for billionaires permanent, Republicans shut down the government rather than make tax credits for health insurance premiums permanent.

Another program purged by Trump during the GOP government shutdown.
Now, they’ve ended an initiative that provides contraception for millions of low-income women.
Because of Trump, millions of Americans will be deprived of critical healthcare.

National bans on abortion & contraception incoming. If that doesn’t get it done, excluding women from the workplace. If that doesn’t get it done? Handmaiden time! All that aside, people CAN NO LONGER AFFORD TO HAVE CHILDREN YOU A-HOLES. Address that & things would probably change almost immediately.
