March 4, 2020 by Corinne Ahrens Leave a Comment

Today the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments for June Medical Services v. Russo to analyze the unconstitutionality of Louisiana’s admitting privileges law. Since 2001, anti-abortion politicians have pushed nearly 450 restrictive laws through legislatures that range from outright bans to medically unnecessary regulations, and humiliating hoops to clinic shutdowns. The issue of states creating […]

“Pro-Life is Pro-Woman”: March for Life Gets It Wrong, Again

February 18, 2020 by Sarah Davidson Leave a Comment

Thousands of marchers walked past us, carrying signs with messages like “Abortion kills,” and “Impeach Roe,” as we wielded our bright pink “Keep Abortion Safe and Legal” rounds. Many of these anti-choice demonstrators were incredibly angry at us for daring to counter-protest their march: as their signs indicated, they all view abortion as wrong, unsafe, […]

On the Day of the March for Life, the Fight Continues to Keep Abortion Safe and Legal

January 31, 2020 by Carolyn Wetzel Leave a Comment

Abortion is a hot-button issue as well as extremely emotional for many. Roe v. Wade (1973) itself says that “We forthwith acknowledge our awareness of the sensitive and emotional nature of the abortion controversy, of the vigorous opposing views, even among physicians, and of the deep and seemingly absolute convictions that the subject inspires…” We’re […]

On Allyship: Attending the SCOTUS Protest on LGBTQ Discrimination

November 18, 2019 by Callie Wixon Leave a Comment

Last month–LGBT History Month–on October 8, the Supreme Court heard three cases regarding LGBTQ discrimination in the workplace. To show support for those representing the cases and the LGBTQ community generally, and to demonstrate the will of the people, a protest was held outside the Supreme Court. A few key moments stood out to me, […]

37 Years Later…

November 14, 2019 by Genavieve Smith Leave a Comment

Yesterday, the United States House Judiciary Committee considered H.J. Resolution 79, legislation to remove one of the few barriers left to finally add the Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution: a 1982 deadline for ratification. First proposed almost a century ago and passed by Congress in 1972, the ERA—which would guarantee equal legal rights for […]
