If passed into law, SB 72 would allow individuals in any role within a health care setting (including pharmacists, technicians, ambulance drivers, and hospital receptionists) to deny care without consequence. (2/4)

When Planned Parenthood health centers are forced to close, patients don’t magically get care elsewhere. They lose access – full stop. Patients deserve better than deception – they deserve Planned Parenthood.

Let us be clear – when Planned Parenthood health centers close, patients lose access to real, comprehensive health care – including contraception and cancer screenings.

Most CPCs aren’t legitimate medical clinics, and use lies, shame and fear to manipulate patients at their most vulnerable moments.

Yesterday, HHS announced TWO proposed rules that aim to severely restrict access to best-practice health care for trans youth. Starting today, the public has 60 DAYS to comment on the rules.

NEW: The Trump administration announced a harmful new proposal that would block access to essential gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth across the country.

If this discriminatory regulation moves forward, we will see this administration in court.

Gender-affirming care for young people is based on decades of clinical research and backed by the leading U.S. medical associations.

This is cruelty, plain and simple. We’re holding our trans and nonbinary communities extra close today. 🩡🩷🀍🩷🩡

This is a direct attack on expert providers who deliver medically necessary care for transgender and nonbinary patients.

The goal is clear: threaten doctors and health care providers with jail time to stop them from giving patients the life-saving and evidence-based health care they need. (1/2)

Abortion Onscreen in 2025 This year, we tracked 65 abortion plotlines across cable, broadcast, and streaming channels. While we documented some familiar trends, we also observed a return to concerning tropes.

Abortion bans and other barriers can make accessing abortion care complex. Many patients need to raise money, schedule childcare, and take time off work. Some are criminalized for seeking care.

We deserve stories on screen that reflect real life.
