Has any of this been done? Also I really need the link to access the mife medication via mail. Can I get the link through someone here?

This needs to be done on military bases and VA healthcare too. The republicans have already tried to block travel reimbursement for veteran women and lgbqt members from seeking care in permissive states. Especially with the high rate of violence against women in these locations.

I'd like to submit #11!

Everyone can advocate for Biden to publish the fully ratified Equal Rights Amendment before he leaves office. At @voteequalityus we have a bunch of actions you can take to put gender discrimination protections in place before the next administration comes in. Use that energy for GOOD and tell Biden to PublishEquality! Go to our website https://voteequality.us/

Biden has the constitutional authority and the duty to publish. We are in a constitutional crisis.

Let’s get it done!

I’m hoping Kamala, in her last two months as VP, can nudge Biden to do some/all of the above suggestions, (this was her big campaign issue after all), he is unlikely to do them without being pushed into it by someone much more energetic and energized on this issue!

The anti fetal personhood is new to me, but critical I think.

That's a great idea, approving Mifepristone for other uses.

Biden is not going to sign an anti-fetal personhood executive order. I think Biden is on board with the whole fetal personhood narrative.

Here’s another group (in addition to the League of Women Voters) trying to get Biden to publish the ERA:

You mention partnering with other cities/states/orgs and helping to get the news out for them. What is a good platform to use for sharing this information far and wide?

What is needed to publish the ERA? Wouldn't that protect all women constitutionally? It's been so long I am not up to date on this.

this might seem obvious, but if you buy a pregnancy test and/or plan b, always pay cash. don’t use a credit card, debit card, or a check. and in red states, maybe wear a nondescript cap with the brim pulled down.

Why isn’t Biden instructing the archivist to publish the ERA?

Hi great post - so who do we lobby to have the FDA approve mifepristone for miscarriage care? Who gets my call and letter?

Biden does not have the power to fire DeJoy. There’s a board that has that power.
