Now more than ever, information is power. We’re here to keep you informed on how U.S. policies like the Global Gag Rule threaten reproductive rights. You can learn more about the expanded Gag Rule—and how the U.S. is using coercive “health agreements” with other governments—here: buff.ly/7HYsDYr
Expanded Global Gag Rule is a major blow to global health and human rights

Mifepristone is safe, effective & essential. Despite increasing false claims from anti-abortion lawmakers & activists, it does not impact US waterways or drinking water.
Environmental attacks on mife are misleading & blatant ploys to stigmatize & restrict abortion access. https://gu.tt/4j0sgj4

Emily Waldorf’s water broke at 17 weeks — far too early for her child to survive. Despite a nonviable pregnancy and a growing risk of serious infection, Emily was denied both an abortion and antibiotics.
Now, she’s suing to overturn Arkansas’ ban.

Leaders should absolutely show up, but disaster response isn’t a photo op or should be trivialised. Watching our Prime Minister hand out boxes of KFC to impacted communities was peak cringe IMO. We need serious, systems-level action and that 6b resilience fund like yesterday.

"Our new analysis shows that it is far more dangerous to be pregnant than to have an abortion, and this gap in mortality risk is even larger than previously recognized.” - lead study author Maria Steenland.
In fact, the mortality risk of pregnancy is 44 to 70 times higher than from abortion.

Yet again, in almost any other NZ government a minister telling NZers to *eat less food* to save money would have them hounded by media and pushed out of politics.
Never forget the immensely important protective role that NZ media have played in protecting these fascists from public outrage.
