Hi john,

WHEW, have we been busy! There is nothing better than tabling at film fests across the country and meeting y’all, but Minneapolis may just take the damn cake. We talked to audiences at two SOLD OUT screenings of ‘No One Asked You’ (they even added a third screening), and then danced the night away with our dopest supporters at a funky fundraiser for Abortion Access Front! Karaoke, disco ball bucket hats, and AAF staff wandering around making asses out of ourselves? Gosh, we just have the best job.

Top right- Two men holding their wrists out next to women holding open her jacket, all showing temporary golden uterus tattoos. Middle right- theater audience giving a standing ovation. Bottom right- Five women standing together shoulder to shoulder smiling.

FAKE CLINICS, REAL BULLSHIT
Hey, what do you know…there ARE other people as worried about fake clinics as we are! The Campaign for Accountability recently urged attorneys from five states to look into how predatory fake clinics handle sensitive data of patients, because, ya know- THEY AREN’T BOUND BY HIPAA TO SAFEGUARD YOUR MEDICAL INFORMATION. At what point do you think states will listen and take action? We’re taking bets.

Split grid meme. Top graphic: woman laying on her bed, looking down at phone, typing out “Can you investigate fake clinics as they manipulate pregnant people and steal their data?” Bottom graphic: Boy laying on his bed, holding his phone in front of him, typing, “Thank you! Thank you for submitting your feedback”. On top of boy with a white background and black text, “ATTORNEYS GENERAL”

FLORIDA: MAY 1ST BRINGS HORROR NOT FLOWERS
It never gets easier to see states lose large swaths of access, and beginning tomorrow, May 1st, Florida’s six-week abortion ban goes into effect. Normally, we’d have something funny and pithy to say, but you know what? Fuck that, and anyone who helped put this bill into place. Bookmark this link to stay up-to-date, because ABORTION IS STILL LEGAL IN FLORIDA, and throw some extra love to Florida clinics, funds, and advocates. THEY DESERVE IT!

Now transition that abject rage into action, and find your way to getting involved below on our Activist Calendar!
