The House just voted to pass the Women’s Health Protection Act.

Equal access to abortion care is essential for social and economic equality, reproductive autonomy, and the right to determine our own lives. But, in many places, accessing abortion care is extremely difficult, and for many people nearly impossible, because of state-level laws that restrict and ban access to abortion.

The (WHPA) is federal legislation that will protect the right to access abortion care throughout the United States by creating a safeguard against bans and medically unnecessary restrictions. Text via the Center for Reproductive Rights.

If using my voice and expressing myself in my music can help even one kid out there who feels alone, then it was all worth it.” - 🖤 The Trevor Project
