Testimonials

“The abortion issue itself is often described as a religious debate, or a philosophical question about when life begins. Those are pieces of it but for so many of us, it really is about the fundamental human right and deciding when and with whom to parent.”

BROOKLYN LAW WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP NETWORK SUMMIT
NOVEMBER 2, 2022

“The fall of Roe must be used as a rallying cry for demanding reproductive freedom as a fundamental human right — and not just a privilege dependent on your race, where you live, whom you sleep with or how you define your identity.”

Roe Is as Good as Gone. It’s Time for a New Strategy.
THE NEW YORK TIMES ● NOVEMBER 1, 2021

Julie also leads the Abortion Coalition for Telemedicine (ACT) — the only nationwide advocacy organization working to proactively advance telemedicine abortion in all 50 states. By providing clinicians with the direct legal and technical support needed to operate an interstate telemedicine practice, we can close the abortion accessibility gap for all patients – regardless of their zip codes.
