Happy Valentine's Day! Here's a great love story from diligent reproductive rights fighter and friend of LPJL Erika A. Christensen!

As Jezebel explains, our friends at Planned Parenthood have just launched an effort to fight anti-abortion policies in all 50 states. YES! And YAY!! LPJL has been saying since the moment of our conception that we have to fight regressive retro policies anywhere there are people.

We have to be everywhere because the people who want to take away your rights are everywhere. Here, Rewire reports on how those vile sidewalk shriekers usually associated with Appalachia or the Deep South are infesting clinic space in New York City. At least New York State is suing to stop their thuggery instead of backing up the bullies.

When some logic and empathy-deprived person pens an article she titles “Some women don’t want reproductive rights—I’m one of them,” you’d think that at least they would get points for honesty. Nope. Sorry, Rachel, but your article should be called “Some women don’t want any women to have reproductive rights—I’m one of them.” Read this swill and you won’t be another one of them.

We told you about the sidewalk creeps assaulting patients outside of a Queens medical center. Now take a look at a similar group of intimidators outside of THE Queen’s Medical Center. Oops, we mean “Centre.” The same 40 Days for Life cretins who harass people here in the states are also fouling the other side of the pond, as this BBC piece shows.
