Earlier this year, ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban.

Here’s how we did our analysis.

Iowa legislature votes to go backwards, and decides transgender people don't deserve civil rights despite massive protests.

Every law, every smear campaign, every cruel joke is an attempt to erase us—but we are still here, and we are not going anywhere. Fuck you!!!

If you can, make noise in Iowa. The Republicans there are aiming to become the first in modern history to remove civil rights protections. They're trying to strip gender identity protections that have been in place for nearly 18 years.

Every single American needs to hear this, particularly women!

If the Save Act passes, most married women will be required to show US Passports in order to vote!

That will mean people who cannot afford one won't be able vote & Republicans like Rep Walberg don't want us to & he's on tape saying so!
Curious as to what the GOP in Michigan thinks about the cost to women and others whose names don’t match their birth certificate? Listen to Congressman Tim Walberg answer a direct question about the SAVE act.

Call your congressman today to share your outrage. And shame on Tim Walberg.

Freezing out the NIH's funding means freezing out American innovation.

Research into curing cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's all delayed.

And ultimately it won't just cost us advancements in life-saving research, it will cost us lives.
NIH funding cuts could have ‘devastating impact’ on medical advancements, Chicago researchers say
The National Institutes of Health under President Donald Trump announced this month that it was cutting payments covering overhead costs for research institutions that receive its grants.

Sadly true.

Also expect that anything you have put in eRA Commons, NIH’s central grant application and review repository, will be used to train Musk’s AI.

We should start asking Grok “what research work is <X NIH grant applicant> proposing to do” and see when confidential info starts popping up. 🧪
Probably worth downloading Notices of Grant Awards or anything else you’d like to keep a permanent record of from ERA Commons.
Anyone else with diversity supplements on their R grant has had the NGA in commons replaced by a random rtf file?

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank.

I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history.

Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.
