Reproductive Rights & Healthcare Access

Even with abortion legal in Michigan, the fight for reproductive freedom is far from over. State-level access is constantly threatened by policy loopholes, funding cuts, and legal challenges. Across the country, people are being criminalized for traveling to access abortion care or using FDA-approved medication. These letters help protect reproductive rights, secure healthcare access, and ensure that Michigan does not backslide while others fight just to hold the line.
