This was obviously going to happen…

Fierce Planet Posted on October 10, 2022 by jnfrOctober 10, 2022

Abortion bans stop women from getting essential, life-saving healthcare. State abortion bans are preventing cancer patients from getting chemotherapy Affidavits in Ohio show people had to leave the state for abortions before they could get cancer treatment. It’s an issue across the country. …In at least two cases, cancer patients have been blocked from receiving treatment until their pregnancies were terminated — and getting an abortion required them to leave the state. The cases underscore how abortion bans — even those with exceptions to save the life of the pregnant person — have upended patients’ lives and limited doctors’ abilities … Continue reading →

Fired up

Fierce Planet Posted on September 5, 2022 by jnfrSeptember 5, 2022

This matches what I see/feel around the mid-terms this year (gift link, will get you through the paywall for a while). Women Are So Fired Up to Vote, I’ve Never Seen Anything Like It …once the actual Dobbs decision came down, everything changed. For many Americans, confronting the loss of abortion rights was different from anticipating it. In my 28 years analyzing elections, I’ve never seen anything like what’s happened in the past two months in American politics: Women are registering to vote in numbers I’ve never witnessed. I’ve run out of superlatives to describe how different this moment is, … Continue reading →

Medication abortion – will we lose that too?

Fierce Planet Posted on August 15, 2022 by jnfrAugust 15, 2022

We certainly will if the antiabortion groups get their way. They are working now on legislation to ban medication abortions, even if the pills come from a state where abortion is legal. (gift link, should get you past the paywall) Most abortions are done at home. Antiabortion groups are taking aim. Two top antiabortion groups have crafted and successfully lobbied for state legislation to ban or further restrict the predominant way pregnancies are ended in the United States — via drugs taken at home, often facilitated by a network of abortion rights groups…. The groups are pursuing a variety of … Continue reading →

Kansas!

Fierce Planet Posted on August 3, 2022 by jnfrAugust 3, 2022

The first vote in the post-Dobbs era has ended, and Kansas, considered a very red state these days, has voted to keep abortion legal in the state. (gift link, no paywall) This is an enormous victory for women, and for freedom everywhere. That the vote was not even close should be somewhat reassuring, but there is still a very long road ahead to the mid-terms. Let’s not get complacent. Remember: The people who will put themselves in charge of our bodies to demand our reproductive labor, will put themselves in charge of our bodies to demand every other kind of … Continue reading →

And this comes as no surprise

Fierce Planet Posted on July 22, 2022 by jnfrJuly 22, 2022

Read the whole thing, then contact your Congresscritters and state officials. Demand that all Americans have their full rights respected. We can’t let these bigots determine how we live our lives. Gift link, should get you past the paywall for a while. After Roe, Republicans Sharpen Attacks on Gay and Transgender Rights Since the Supreme Court decision last month overturning Roe v. Wade, anti-gay rhetoric and calls to roll back established L.G.B.T.Q. protections have grown bolder….many Republican officials and candidates across the country have made attacking gay and transgender rights a party norm this midterm season. In Texas, Attorney General … Continue reading →

Abortion resources

Fierce Planet Posted on July 11, 2022 by jnfrJuly 11, 2022

You might notice I’ve added a new page for abortion resources. So far I’ve only added the links I’d surfaced when Roe v. Wade was murdered. Over the next week or two I’ll add in a few lines about the various organizations, their services, note locations (particularly which orgs are outside the US). I intend to keep the info up to date and online indefinitely. If you know of orgs that aren’t included but should be, let me know. Meanwhile, the free states where abortion is still protected are ramping up services as they must now embrace an increased wave … Continue reading →

Yes, killing Roe is a racist act

Fierce Planet Posted on June 30, 2022 by jnfrJuly 3, 2022

Jane Elliott is famous for her exercises teaching about racism, exercises she presents at various schools and to different groups of people. Below she reports about the ideology behind the movement to stop abortions in this country. I’ve transcribed her words beneath the video, and any transcription errors are definitely my own. 90-priceless seconds of Jane Elliot…pic.twitter.com/zfpPLCQLTV — Rex Chapman🏇🏼 (@RexChapman) June 25, 2022 Jane Elliott: “And right now white people are really frightened. If you don’t understand this discussion of Planned Parenthood offices and you don’t understand the Wall that we’re going to build on the southern border of … Continue reading →

“Roe and Casey are overruled.”

Resources: National Network of Abortion Funds – help women who live in states where abortion is prohibited. NNAF is hosting an ActBlue account which shares donations with multiple abortion funds around the country. Planned Parenthood. I’ve had a small monthly donation to them going back years.
