We’re always proud of the work we publish and recently our brilliant writers have taken it to new levels! #ICYMI here’s a roundup from @MollyRingwald, @JillFilipovic, @VABVOX, @ashleyn1cole, @Echidne, @sarahljaffe, @chgrimaldi, @DrStaceyPatton, @robinmarty, and @thebookslut:
.@MollyRingwald: “Strangely, despite having lived with the threat of a ruthless criminal striking in such proximity, I felt safe. I suppose this is a testament to my parents and the psychological security they provided me.”

.@JillFilipovic: “When young, white men do lash out by shooting up their schools, the media too often frames their actions as men provoked by women’s (understandable) actions to separate themselves from the kind of guy who would shoot up a school.”

The hard right-wing of the Republican party will clearly stop at nothing to exert control over the care women receive from their doctors, including putting the federal government in the examining room with providers and their patients. It's dangerous and despicable. #NoGagRule
In addition to certain legal challenges, this rule will also face the scorn and scrutiny of an American public tired of this administration's wanton disregard for their health. #NoGagRule
We must fight this effort to turn back the clock on women's healthcare with every tool at our disposal. We must stand up and speak out against this reprehensible rollback of our rights. #NoGagRule

But this rule is so much bigger than Planned Parenthood: doctors, nurses, hospitals, & health centers wouldn't be able to refer patients for safe, legal abortion. Providers who care for patients under Title X will be prohibited from telling her where she can go to get one.
