In 2019, after years of fighting like hell to protect repro rights, we won - and RI codified abortion protections into law. Abortion is legal in RI. That only stays legal with a pro-choice governor and a pro-choice legislature. But we have so much more to do. 🧵

The Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that recognized a woman's constitutional right to an abortion and legalized it nationwide. These 22 states are now primed to outlaw the procedure reut.rs/3xVbI4P 👇 via @ReutersGraphics 1/5

Clarence Thomas writes, in a concurring opinion, that the Supreme Court should reconsider Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell — the rulings that now protect contraception, same-sex relationships, and same-sex marriage.

In 2018 the people of Ireland spoke loud and clear. Repealing one of the strictest abortion bans in the world. Giving Irish women their rights. We looked to America as an example of freedom. With Roe v Wade overturned, the world continues to watch America become unrecognisable.

Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

Gonna be very weird if Supreme Court ends a constitutional right to obtain an abortion next week, saying it should be left to the States to decide, right after it just imposed a constitutional right to concealed carry of firearms, saying it cannot be left to the States to decide

This is an incredible loss for fundamental womens rights. I mourn for my daughters and for all women - we live in a society that doesn’t believe us, doesn’t trust us. We should have control over our own bodies - it’s that simple.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court has taken away our right to abortion and overturned Roe v. Wade, opening the floodgates for states across the country to ban abortion. The court has failed us all — but this is far from over. ⤵

We need a joint approach to #PCVE. Building trust is not an easy task but we cannot succeed without each other. @OSCE Seminar brought together 70 actors across sectors to discuss comprehensive approaches to PCVE. Find out more here➡️osce.org/countering-terroris…
