Today, Democrats reintroduced the Stop Comstock Act. But the bill is identical to last year's version, and as I reported at the time, it is not a full repeal of the Comstock Act: rewirenewsgroup.com/2024/06/25/a...

BREAKING: Trump has withdrawn anti-abortion activist David Weldon from consideration for CDC Director. @hegemommy.bsky.social wrote earlier this week that Weldon would have been one of the most dangerous Trump nominees. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/12/t...

Tim Walz read the piece so you should too... rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/11/h...

Hope Walz never planned on going viral. But after her dad, VP nominee Tim Walz, lost the election, she posted a TikTok about life post-campaign. The video blew up—garnering 400K+ views. Now she’s navigating unexpected fame while eyeing a future in public service. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/11/h...

kinda forgot about this site for a while but i wanted to highlight some recent @rewirenewsgroup.com pieces. today we published @angryblacklady.bsky.social's analysis on how John Roberts is to blame for the current shitshow that is our federal government: rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/10/a...

1/ John Roberts killed the Voting Rights Act in 2013 because he thought racism was over. Adorable. Now, we’re knee-deep in voter suppression, racial gerrymandering, and resegregation, @angryblacklady.bsky.social writes. Hell of a legacy, Johnny. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/10/a...

1/ The fight over mifepristone isn’t over. GenBioPro, the maker of generic mifepristone, is stepping in to defend its drug from a new lawsuit by conservative AGs trying to ban it—despite the Supreme Court unanimously rejecting similar claims last year. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/05/m...

texasmetalhippie.bsky.social We got to your question!! www.instagram.com/reel/DG3g0UY...

In this new episode of #BoomLawyered, @angryblacklady.bsky.social and @hegemommy.bsky.social get into the conservative legal movement's attempts to roll back Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act—and how it could amount to government-sponsored eugenics. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/06/r...

1/ Are you worried about maternal health? A second Trump term could worsen outcomes, @avitalnn.bsky.social writes. His first term saw a rise in maternal mortality, especially for Black women. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/03/03/o...

A new report from the Institute for Women's Policy Research finds that among survey respondents who plan to have children within the next decade, one in five has moved, or knows someone who has moved, to another state because of abortion restrictions: iwpr.org/post-roe-emp...

Yesterday, Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon signed a targeted regulation of abortion provider (TRAP) law that would force the closure of the state's only procedural abortion clinic. The clinic, @wellspringhealth.bsky.social, is suing to block the law: www.wyomingpublicmedia.org/politics-gov...

In a special Q&A episode of Boom! Lawyered, Jess and Imani answer listener questions. They cover everything from what could happen if fetal “personhood” becomes enshrined into law to whether abortion bans allow states to assert dominion over people’s bodies. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/27/a...

In honor of Student Press Freedom Day:

1/ In a rare win for abortion rights, the Supreme Court declined to hear two cases aimed at overturning Hill v. Colorado, which protects patients & providers from aggressive clinic protesters. Justices Alito & Thomas dissented—because of course they would. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/26/s...

Pretty big news especially in light of ~current events~: Yesterday the FDA approved a new non-hormonal IUD for the first time in more than 40 years. www.prnewswire.com/news-release...

In the post-Roe era, student unions are increasingly helping student workers secure access to reproductive health care. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/24/a...

U.S. health care might be a mess and we could all benefit from better access to affordable produce, but "wellness farms" are not the answer. This week @angryblacklady.bsky.social & @hegemommy.bsky.social explain how Make America Healthy Again is eugenics at work. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/20/w...

Conservative legal attacks on trans youth reflect a dual threat: portraying being trans as an existential threat to state power, and using these attacks as a precursor to broader assaults on other marginalized groups' rights, @hegemommy.bsky.social writes. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/19/c...

1/ Ben Costiloe and Coral Zalusky never planned to marry. But when Costiloe’s diabetes treatment became unaffordable, they tied the knot just to get him health insurance. Two weeks later, Zalusky lost her job—and the coverage. They divorced four years later. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/18/m...

I'll be joining a @secularaz.bsky.social webinar tomorrow to talk about Skrmetti and broader attacks on gender-affirming care under Trump. Please join us! secularaz.org/single-event...

In this episode of #BoomLawyered, @angryblacklady.bsky.social and @hegemommy.bsky.social revisit how the Trump administration could effectively ban abortion and contraception—and dildos—without input from Congress—all thanks to a 19th century anti-obscenity law. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/13/t...

Less than a month into Trump’s administration, we’re already at the “ignoring court orders” stage of authoritarianism. VP Vance claims courts can’t block presidential actions, and Trump’s team is defying rulings on federal funding, @hegemommy.bsky.social writes. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/12/w...

Some important details from Trump's recent "protecting Christians" EO: It mentions his FACE Act pardons and suggests there is a widespread pattern of violent attacks against Christian churches and "crisis pregnancy centers." www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

“Just the Pill has purposely misrepresented what we've done to the media,” one former employee told @garnethenderson.com . Read more about what former employees say went wrong at an organization that promised a fleet of mobile abortion clinics: rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/05/j...

1/ It's hard to keep up with the chaos of the Trump admin: From Musk's hostile takeover of the Treasury to Rubio claiming leadership of USAID, it's a power grab that's dangerously unconstitutional, @hegemommy.bsky.social writes. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/05/t...

While Elon Musk grabs power, the Fifth Circuit quietly overturned a 60-year-old law blocking gun sales to 18-20-year-olds. This week, Jess and Imani dive into Reese v. ATF, a truly ridiculous ruling featuring Edith Jones, the Lucille Bluth of the Fifth Circuit. rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/06/t...

NEW: On January 17, Just the Pill laid off nearly all of its staff. Former employees allege union busting, mismanagement, nepotism, and that the organization condoned widespread misrepresentation of its use of mobile clinics. @garnethenderson.com reports: rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/02/05/j...

NEW: A grand jury in Louisiana has indicted a New York abortion provider for prescribing abortion pills to Louisiana residents. Another shield law test, now with a hostile federal government: www.wftv.com/news/health/...
