Watch This: The New Attacks on our Reproductive Rights

May 29, 2025 | Easy A, Reproductive Rights

Last week, we learned about the new ways that extremists are coming for our reproductive rights.

We know that they have a plan to take away the abortion pill everywhere, even in states where abortion is legal. We also know that they’re testing a variety of state and local bills across the country to see what they can pass under the radar.

Jessica Valenti, author of the newsletter Abortion, Every Day, joined us for an event recently to talk about these attacks and what we can do to stop them. Watch this short video from that event in which she told us the most important thing we can all be doing right now to protect our reproductive rights in the face of these attacks.

The fall of Roe v. Wade in 2022 put our access to abortion care in the hands of state and local leaders. This created a patchwork of laws and varying levels of access to safe and basic reproductive healthcare, all just depending on where we happen to live. It’s scary and confusing for a lot of us, but we have a lot of power locally.

By subscribing to Easy A, you’re already taking Jessica’s advice to stay informed! Next week we’ll continue to be inspired by Jessica and take one more action to protect our reproductive freedom.

And if you have a little extra time this week, you can watch our full event with Jessica here on our YouTube channel!
