Hearing Updates, Events & YOU!

March 7, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

It’s (All People Who Identify as a) Women’s History Month. And the celebration feels patronizing. Women and people identifying as women hold up half the sky. Our contributions to community, society, science, art and every other aspect of humanity should be celebrated. Loudly. Yet we’re bombarded with uplifting little fun facts about prominent women in history–“Nice job, … [Read more...] about Hearing Updates, Events & YOU!

Tearing down oppressive barriers

February 11, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

Organizations often talk about their work as allies during Black History month. And we’re going to do it, too–we’re proud of our allyship and even more proud of the organizations that allow us the space to stand with them. During the recent once-in-a-generation cold snap this month, Amos House, along with other organizations that support the unhoused, did incredible work. … [Read more...] about Tearing down oppressive barriers

Roe’s “Un”niversary

January 23, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

We should be recognizing a milestone this week. But instead of celebrating 50 years of reproductive freedom, we’re gathering as allies and once again working toward what should be ours simply because we’re human. This January 22nd is even more poignant when we imagine the joy those in the movement must have felt 50 years ago, and consider what they must be feeling now. This … [Read more...] about Roe’s “Un”niversary

Governor Includes Abortion Coverage in FY24 Budget!

January 19, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

After years of advocacy, we could not be happier to tell you that earlier today, Governor Dan McKee introduced a budget for 2024 that includes health coverage for abortion for state employees and people who use Medicaid. Every one of you who has made a call, sent an email or showed up at the State House with us to push for an inclusive budget and push for the EACA should be … [Read more...] about Governor Includes Abortion Coverage in FY24 Budget!

(Action Needed!) Come on, governor. RI’ers deserve better!

January 18, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

Governor McKee delivered his “State of the State” last night, talked about health and economics progress, but did not mention abortion access. Disappointing, to say the least. Abortion access improves health AND economic outcomes, as research shows. Restrictions on abortion access are costing states over $100 Billion annually.   The governor made a commitment in September to … [Read more...] about (Action Needed!) Come on, governor.

Actions to help pass abortion access for all in 2023

January 16, 2023 by Jocelyn remote computer

Thoughts on this Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Day to you. In reflecting on today's holiday and our own state's fight for a range of race equity issues, I want to celebrate progress on the Equality in Abortion Coverage Act (EACA), which as of this past Thursday, has 43 sponsors in the House and 21 in the Senate- both majorities in each chamber! This is huge for the EACA, which … [Read more...] about Actions to help pass abortion access for all in 2023

Happy Holidays & Rest-Up… 🌙

December 23, 2022 by Jocelyn remote computer

This year has tested us in ways that were, to many of us, unimaginable. What our mothers fought for was lost, and our children are growing up in a world that doesn’t recognize their autonomy. But when despair enters your periphery, think about the tremendous victories our movement has experienced this year – from Kansas to Kentucky to right here in Rhode Island. Consider the … [Read more...] about Happy Holidays & Rest-Up… 🌙

Elections are over – time to get to work!

November 9, 2022 by Jocelyn remote computer

Not sure about you, but I don’t get much sleep on election night. Wins and losses, hope and heartbreak, it is all on display. There are moments to celebrate with voters showing up for reproductive freedom in Kentucky, Vermont, Michigan and California - and as we await final results it looks likely Montana will defeat an anti-abortion ballot measure. There was also a win on … [Read more...] about Elections are over – time to get to work!
