This is a difficult but important (and quick) read. 

If you aren't following Valenti or subscribed to her substack, you should be. As she writes “abortion is proactively objectively good.” It is medical care and the attacks against that care are expanding exponentially. They are coming for BC. They are targeting marginalized populations for prosecutions and young people for new restrictions in the hope that Americans simply won’t care. And they are coming for the helpers. They are firing prosecutors who won’t prosecute abortion crimes. Maternal and fetal medical care generally is suffering. Doctors are leaving or declining positions in jurisdictions with restrictive abortion bans for fear of their careers, fines, and jail time. We have to stay informed and pay attention.

You should read this, even if you’re already a fervent supporter of abortion rights. It’s inspiring and informative. As Valenti says, she’s not preaching to the choir, she’s arming it.
