?? Breaking News! House Bill 6068 has just been introduced to update Michigan’s sex education law so young people can learn about their bodies, protect their health, and make informed decisions for their futures. We’re calling on the Michigan Legislature to pass this important bill before they adjourn in December so public school students are equipped with the information and skills they need to protect themselves in today’s world. ?? Take action to support sex education by contacting your elected representatives: https://lnkd.in/gp5WpttQ

The outcome of this election is devastating for the future of sexual and reproductive health care access — but this fight is far from over. In these uncertain times, we need each other now more than ever. Join us in community with fellow reproductive health advocates for a post-election town hall on Tuesday, November 12. We'll be breaking down the results and what they mean for the future of sexual and reproductive care in Michigan, and mapping out our next steps to protect the rights we fought so hard to secure. Register at PPMI.org/th24.

We will never stop fighting until everyone has the power to control their own bodies, lives, and futures. ?? Read our press release: https://lnkd.in/dyJjTCTY

"We must call these attacks out for what they are: a strategy designed to reinforce the belief that only white men are qualified to run our country — and a political tool to distract and divide Americans along the lines of race, religion, national origin, and immigration status." – Paula Thornton Greear, President & CEO for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan
