On what would have been Roe v. Wade’s 51st anniversary, Lynn M. Paltrow reflects on how the Dobbs decision has unexpectedly increased awareness about the connections between abortion, pregnancy, and pregnancy loss for Ms. Magazine - highlighting the importance of protecting reproductive rights for all capable of pregnancy.

As we celebrate Juneteenth and Pride this year, we are reminded that we must all work together to build a safe and prosperous future for everyone. To quote Black transgender pioneer and activist, Marsha P. Johnson: “No Pride for some of us without liberation for all of us.”⁠ ⁠ Image Description: Graphic with a rainbow outline going around the entire square image, a white background, and a circular photo in the upper middle of the graphic of a person wearing a floral headband with a big smile. There is text below the photo that says "No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us. - Marsha P. Johnson"

In light of last week's unanimous ruling from the Supreme Court in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA, which rejected an attempt to limit access to mifepristone (one of the two medications used in a medication abortion), we want to remind everyone that this case should never have made it as far as it did. Medication abortion care has a 20-year track record as a safe, effective, FDA-approved option for ending an early pregnancy. Overwhelming evidence and more than two decades of use make it clear that medication abortion is safe and effective. This case was brought by anti-abortion extremists intent on banning abortion nationwide by any means necessary. Efforts to restrict access to medication abortion care are politically motivated, not based on scientific evidence or best medical practices. While we are breathing a temporary sigh of relief, we recognize that the battle is far from over. We will keep our eyes on the horizon, providing respectful, thoughtful, and affordable abortion care to those who want it, no matter what. We will keep working to create a future where abortion is legal, free of stigma, and wildly convenient in all 50 states. We, along with the majority of people in the U.S., believe that everyone has the right to make their own decisions about their bodies and their futures, no matter their income, immigration status, physical ability, zip code, political views, or religious affiliation. We are not going to let the small minority of anti-abortion extremists dictate our future.⁠

carafem Applauds Unanimous Decision to Uphold Access to Safe, Effective Abortion Care in the US. While we are pleased with this outcome, we recognize that the battle for comprehensive and equitable access to abortion care is far from over. We will continue to watch diligently, as we know the attacks on our bodily freedom and access to safe, effective abortion care will continue. carafem remains committed to making abortion services more accessible, particularly for those who are most harmed by restrictions and barriers to care. carafem firmly believes that the fight for reproductive rights will not be won until everyone, regardless of their socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, zip code, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity and expression, immigration status, dis/ability or age has access to safe and affordable abortion care. We will not celebrate until this goal is achieved, and we affirm our solidarity with all those who continue to fight for reproductive justice.

"It was so easy to start the process, wait to hear from a doctor and then receive the medication. The help at every step of the way via text message was so easy to keep up with.
