For 2 years straight, we've polled the Peach State for their opinions on pregnancy criminalization.

And for 2 years straights, we've blasted our beliefs on billboards for all Georgians to see:
🗣️ Police have no place in our pregnancy outcomes.

A post promoting an Op-Ed titled: Pregnancy as Probably Cause: Policing pregnant bodies. The graphic's header is "Pregnancy Criminalization Threatens Our Autonomy" A quote from the article states "Two years later, I had to advocate to get this same medication again. Why? Because Lupron also can be used in hormone therapy for trans people. I can’t say my new insurance company knew me as queer, but I can say transphobia plays a part in hormone prescriptions being flagged for investigation."

Assata Shakur's story reminds us that incarcerated pregnant people are still shackled & denied care.

#ReproductiveJustice means:
- No shackling & coercion
- No punishment for abortion, miscarriage, or birth
- The right to parent, or not, in safety and dignity

#HonorAssata #StopPolicingPregnancy
Assata: An Autobiography book cover. A yellow tear sheet is underneath with text that reads: In her autobiography, Assata Shakur shared how she was denied care, pressured to end the pregnancy she wanted, then shackled during labor after fighting for a gynecologist. Closeup of the Assata Autobiography book cover. Cream tearsheet underneath has a line down the middle. The left side reads: "'Isn't there something you can give me to keep me from having a miscarriage?'-Assata Shakur". The right side reads: "'my advice is to have an abortion...It would be best for everybody concerned...no matter which way you have it.' -Prison doctor" Photo of a young Assata smiling with her child daughter. Teal tearsheet underneath reads: Assata and her family struggled to honor her pregnancy choice. The fight remains today for incarcerated people to access reproductive safety, birthing care, and abortions. RJ means ending the policing of our bodies, inside and outside prison walls." Photo of Assata looking up with a hammered gold crescent shaped earring in her ear. Saturated orange tearsheet reads: "I believe that oppressed people, wherever they are, have the right to self-determination”

GEORGIANS DON'T WANT THE GOVERNMENT POLICING PREGNANCY!

Abortion bans mean criminalization. This also means any pregnancy outcome outside of a full-term healthy birth can be investigated. Including miscarriage.
🔗 Check out the polling: amplify-ga.org/resources

WE TRUST PREGNANT GEORGIANS TO MAKE THE BEST DECISIONS FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES.

We polled in six metro areas in Georgia to represent the diversity of communities across Georgia, NOT just Atlanta.

These results show that politicians should NOT interfere in healthcare decisions.
The infographic's header is a quote stating "I can hold my own views on abortion and still trust a pregnant person to make the decision that's right for them" Below the quote, a blurb states "4 in 5 Georgians agree!" A sticker below the blurb says "Check out the polling data!"
