Will we look back on ballot measures to “restore Roe” as a huge, expensive mistake? In states where millions are spent for them to win but there’s almost no abortion providers and clinics and abortions funds are struggling to stay open, what are we doing really? My new feature:

Texas Republicans have pre-filed bills to ban websites like Plan C Pills and Hey Jane, which help people order abortion pills by mail, and reclassify abortion pills as a "Schedule IV" drug under the state's Controlled Substances Act. The state already imposes a total abortion ban:

I’ve kept saying this until I’m blue in the face: abortion is intrinsically part of the spectrum of pregnancy care. Pregnancy and abortion are not separate issues, and no safe and comprehensive pregnancy care can exist without the option of abortion. Period.
I’m shocked by how misinformed the men in my life are on abortion bans. Most of them support a woman’s right to choose - but they don’t understand that the bans put lives at risk.

One said to me “I’m sure they don’t impact women who WANT to start a family”.

They do - and here’s why 🧵/1

Alongside that: a good test for behavior that you should avoid bringing into an organizing space is to simply ask yourself: "what would happen if I did this at a Waffle House?"
