Last week, MO Attorney General Catherine Hanaway filed a new challenge to restrict #mifepristone available by mail, the first of two pills in the medication abortion regimen, despite decades of evidence that the medication is safe. (1/6)
Image Description: Over an orange photo background of AAM members protesting is a quote from AAM executive director, Mallory Schwarz from a Jezebel article titled, “These Anti-Abortion AGs Can’t Leave the Abortion Pill Alone”. The quote reads, “This effort from AG Hanaway is just another example of politicians who think they know better than doctors and all leading American medical associations. Missourians deserve better than unqualified politicians playing doctor.” “Another…doctors” and “Missourians deserve…doctor” are highlighted in black. Below is a collage of the orange-tinted Missouri Capitol Building surrounded by toy medical equipment. A black AAM logo is tucked into the top right corner.

Today is #ThxBirthControl Day!

Birth control access is about health, freedom, and taking charge of our own futures. Last year, Missourians made that clear when we voted to put reproductive freedom in our state constitution, including the right to birth control. (1/2)
Image Description: Over an orange and purple gradient background is the small, white all-caps text, “We put the right to birth control in the MO constitution last year!” followed by “In 2026, vote NO on 3 to keep it”. “In 2026, vote” and “to keep it” are in white all-caps on black stripes and “NO on 3” is in large black all-caps with a white drop shadow. Below is a purple-tinted photo collage of different types of contraception and a black and white cutout photo of an arm holding a megaphone peeks in next to “NO on 3”. The hashtag, “ThxBirthControl” is visible in white all-caps with black highlighting in the lower margin and a white AAM logo is tucked into the lower right corner.

Anti-abortion, anti-democracy politicians are betting you will not notice their trick to ban abortion again on the 2026 ballot.

Missourians are smarter than that.

Last year we voted to legalize abortion. Now politicians want to take away our rights and hope we will not notice.

The new ballot language hides the ban entirely. Missourians see the trick coming.

Our legal abortion victory last year wasn’t won by politicians.

It was won by neighbors in every corner of the state — at farmers markets, campuses, church parking lots, block parties.

Missourians made this happen.

In 2024, Missourians made our state the first to end an abortion ban at the ballot box.

Now, we’re celebrating one year of legal abortion that we fought for, won, and are gearing up to defend!

MO’s corrupt politicians have been playing dress-up long before Halloween, hoping to trick voters into giving up the legal abortion we fought for and won a year ago.

We’re not entering their haunted mansion. We’ve been here before, and we will win again. Together, we will #StopTheBan.
Image Description: An ominous composite image of Secretary of State Denny Hoskins, Governor Mike Kehoe, and Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway photoshopped as a corny ghost, a zombie and a witch against a stormy Jefferson City skyline. Large all-caps text cast in shadows reads, “These ghouls want to raise an abortion ban from the dead”. “Abortion ban” and “from the dead” are on orange and white stripes. A One Year of Legal Abortion wordmark and a white AAM logo sit in the top right and left corners.

The federal Hyde Amendment currently prohibits federally-funded health coverage of abortion care with few exceptions; this bill expands this dangerous amendment to everyone on an exchange plan. (1/3)

Missourians support legal abortion. And this week, once again, MO courts recognize legal abortion.

The Western District Court of Appeals rejected the Attorney General’s attempt to reinstate an abortion ban in a unanimous decision. And in 2026, Missourians will vote to keep abortion legal. (1/3)
Image Description: A graphic divided into three sections with multi-colored gradients over photos corresponding to the statements on each. They read in all-caps text, “Missourians support legal abortion. Missouri courts recognize legal abortion. And in 2026, Missourians will vote to keep abortion legal.” “Support..abortion,” “recognize…abortion,” and “will vote…legal,” are in black with white highlighting while the rest of the text is in white. A recent Missouri Independent headline sits next to the court statement reading, “Missouri appeals court rules against attorney general, allows abortions to continue”. A white AAM logo sits in the lower left corner.

If the lawmakers that created this abortion ban, and the state officials that refuse to call it an abortion ban, truly believed that Missourians wanted to ban abortion, they wouldn’t be working so hard to trick people into banning abortion. (1/2)

Image Description: Over a black and red textured gradient background is a quote from Mallory Schwarz, AAM executive director, in all-caps black and white text (also included in the caption) from a recent Jezebel article titled, “Missouri’s New Atin-Abortion AG Wasted No Time Harassing Planned Parenthood”. The section of the quote, “carry on….medical records,” is black text highlighted in white. A black and white photo collage in the lower half depicts AG Catherine Hanaway reaching for a stack of files and a Planned Parenthood clinic in the background alongside the Jezebel headline. A white AAM logo is visible in the top right corner.
