Over the past year, sexual and reproductive health and rights have endured unending attacks from the administration, Congress, and state legislatures. This year, women and girls around the country have watched as access to vital reproductive health services, and funding have hung in the balance. Jacqueline Ayers with Planned Parenthood reviews 2018 with us, and talks through the ups and downs of SRHR this past year. The good news is that, so far, we haven’t lost a lot of the progress that we have made. The Affordable Care Act is still in place, the birth control benefit still exists, Planned Parenthood is still funded and Medicaid hasn’t been dismantled. Still, there will be many more attacks on sexual and reproductive health and rights, and it is important to be prepared!For more information check outThe Nocturnists: <a href="https://thenocturnists.org/">https://thenocturnists.org/</a><a rel="payment" href="https://www.reprosfightback.com/take-action#donate">Support the show</a>Follow Us on Social: Twitter: <a href='https://twitter.com/rePROsFightBack'>@rePROsFightBack</a> Instagram: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/reprosfb/'>@reprosfb</a> Facebook: <a href='https://www.facebook.com/rePROsFightBack'>rePROs Fight Back </a> Bluesky: <a href='https://bsky.app/profile/reprosfightback.bsky.social'>@reprosfightback.bsky.social </a> Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.com <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/repros-fight-back/id1327397412'>Rate and Review on Apple Podcast</a> Thanks for listening & keep fighting back!
