The Healthy Opportunities Pilot, launched in 2022, had benefits beyond health and quality-of-life improvements. UNC-Chapel Hill researchers found it saved $1,020/year per recipient on health care costs and participants had “significantly lower” ER visits than peers.

Of COURSE repub legislators refuse to come back & fully fund NC's Medicaid program, b/c they DON'T care about NCians.

#Shame on them & their cruelty. Y'all, we've got to vote them all out next year.

Abortion is a social issue, but it is also an economic one.

The Turnaway Study found that people denied wanted abortions had almost four times greater odds of being below the federal poverty level than those who received wanted abortions.

Expanding access to birth control should be a public health priority.

Removing barriers to contraception improves health outcomes, reduces inequities, and makes communities stronger #ThxBirthControl

People need food support. The billions in dollars are there. There is no reason for this denial other than fascist cruelty.

No one should ever have to choose b/t feeding their family & accessing reproductive healthcare. People's lives are not political battlegrounds!

Ppl shld never have to choose b/t feeding their families & accessing #abortion care. Sadly, that's happening due to the cruelty of repubs in DC who refuse to fund #SNAP. We're thankful Gov. @ncgovernor.bsky.social & team for secured funding to support NC food banks!

"It's really important for everyone to speak out now, because if we don't now, we may not have a chance to again."

On Monday, North Carolinians spoke powerfully AGAINST a scheme by politicians in the legislature to further manipulate our state's voting maps.

NC Repubs are AGAIN trying to change the rules & we’ve seen it before: We had fair maps in 2022 where an even number of Dems & Repubs were elected, reflecting NC's true bipartisan nature. Yet, as soon as Repubs could, they redrew the maps to give them a 10-4 advantage. Now, even that's not enough.

We support Dr. Jarosław Górnicki! Dr. Górnicki is a Polish doctor under review by the Ministry of Health and the Medical Council for prescribing emergency contraception, even though he's followed national regulations.

Prescribing emergency contraception is never a crime!
