The National Institute for Reproductive Health offers education programs and advocacy strategies proven to improve access to reproductive health care.
There’s a new attack on abortion rights. Anti-abortion politicians are trying to pit affordable health care and abortion access against each other. Reminder: abortion IS health care and insurance should cover abortion.

Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
Democrats say that’s a nonstarter, arguing there are already limits on abortion access. The dispute could torpedo a deal, leading to higher health insurance premiums for millions.

NIRH is joining our friends at @powertodecide.bsky.social today to say #thxbirthcontrol!

Birth control has transformed lives for generations & has allowed people to pursue education, build careers, care for their families, & protect their health. Expanding access should be a public health priority!
