The defunding of the Women’s Health Initiative halts vital longitudinal research into heart disease, cancer, and aging in women. Not a fiscal adjustment, but a strategic abandonment of evidence-based, gender-specific science.

Can’t we women file a class action suit against HHS and DOGE for defunding the Women’s Health Initiative? We will all be harmed by its cancellation.

Because women only matter to this administration if they can force them to have babies, which they also don't care about since they want to gut Medicaid, SNAP, Headstart, etc. They have to control women because they're afraid that if women were in charge we'd treat them as badly as they treat us.
Because conservatives want the old and infirm to die. I don't know how much more obvious they can be about it. They are following right along a modernized version of the nazi playbook. Conservative Christians are not your friends.
Of course, the words ‘woman’ and ‘women’ are on his list of banned words. So, it seems they will need to defund all programs with those words in their titles. I don’t understand how they think they’re going to be able to erase us…
Once you’re beyond “birthing” age, your usefulness is limited by these people. Then again, according to #Vance at that point your contribution to the country should be as “grandmother daycare center”. I’m so confused. 🤔
I teaching women's history at a university. Trust me - this is completely in line with the plans of Project 2025 to take away our voice, rights to body. In 1905, T. Roosevelt chastised fathers for allowing daughters to get an education. To win the race war, he said, women need to be home & silent.
At this late stage in my life, it's not me I'm worried about. It's my granddaughters. I'll die on this hill for them. If I'm gone before this is fixed, my granddaughters already know the battle will become theirs & they will be fierce. Fucking Fierce! This Nana isn't raising them to be subservient.
Hey, let's use the savings to figure out to cut off the dicks of all these hateful men. They never would have been born without a women and we're not going BACK to how they used to treat us!
Because in the end I think that tells you all you need to know about the people running the country...all they want is for you to be in on your back, or in the kitchen, pregnant and stupid. They dont care about women 1 iota! All they care about money, power and getting their dicks seen to!
It’s stunning to think that my predicted lifespan may well be shorter than my mother’s, and my daughters’ may be shorter than mine. This is not acceptable.
Well given they only pay lip service to women, their choices seem on brand. They don't want weak or sick people. And seeing most of the "leaders" like younger women, well research doesn't manner.

Reproductive care is healthcare… along with heart healthcare, early detection of cancer, and impact of aging in women
More stupidity from the dtrumpf administration

Defunding the Women's Health Initiative is like... destroying federal software repositories... Or clear cutting a national forest.
Flushing the priceless to save a dime.
Stupid.
My statement is irony.
Somebody fight. It’s so valuable to all of us
