Help us maintain momentum as we head towards June’s verdicts.

The negative noise since Dobbs may feel like it’s growing to a deafening degree, drowning out the trumpets of any victories for reproductive rights. But as the only national nonprofit newsroom exclusively reporting on reproductive justice, we are here to help filter out the noise and keep you informed about everything that’s going on right now, including the good news.

When we acknowledge progress, we help steel ourselves for staying in the fight, building on what works, and knowing that there are solutions that keep reproductive rights accessible to all. In that spirit, let’s raise awareness of these recent repro rights wins:

Kansas governor strikes funding for anti-abortion programs from state budget

The $2 million earmark would have funneled taxpayer money toward supporting unregulated pregnancy crisis centers.

Planned Parenthood Great Plains hosts highly successful vasectomy clinics

Men and people with testicles could get the procedure done at a low cost, allowing all individuals to bear the birth control responsibility.

Vanderbilt University students can now buy contraception from on-campus vending machines

And better still, thanks to the American Society for Emergency Contraception, these machines keep popping up, giving more and more college students low-cost, confidential access to contraceptives.

We love hearing and sharing these victories, especially as we continue to wait for the Supreme Court’s verdicts next month. But, you better believe that we’ve got our pens, laptops, and mics ready to dissect and discuss it all so you can make sense of everything happening in real time.

Thank you, and here’s to continuous progress,
