They Took Down ReproductiveRights.gov—But We’re Still Here
On January 20, 2025, the federal government quietly removed ReproductiveRights.gov, a critical resource for birth control, abortion access, and reproductive health. No announcement. No warning. Just gone.
If you feel frustrated, angry, or even scared, you’re not alone. This isn’t just about a website—it’s about silencing access to life-saving information. But here’s the truth: we are not powerless.
Why This Matters
Without ReproductiveRights.gov, people now face even more barriers to:
✅ Up-to-date abortion laws – Laws are shifting rapidly, and without a centralized source, misinformation spreads faster than ever.
✅ Safe clinics & telehealth providers – Finding legitimate providers is harder, increasing the risk of delays or falling into the hands of fake ‘crisis pregnancy centers’ that spread misinformation.
✅ Birth control & emergency contraception – Knowing where to access Plan B, IUDs, or birth control pills shouldn’t be a guessing game.
This is part of a larger effort to make reproductive healthcare harder to access. But we refuse to let that happen.
