生殖权利新闻综述 – 2025年12月19日

Dear friends,

Here we find ourselves, reading the final Floridians for Reproductive Freedom coalition blog of 2025. Looking back through the past 12 months, we are reminded why this movement has been able to endure through generations before us and why, in spite of everything, we have reason to hope.

Today, we thank:

Our health care providers and community support networks, from Planned Parenthood to independent providers, physicians, clinic staff, and volunteer escorts who have worked overtime to provide patients with compassionate health care. Doulas and midwives have modeled what people-centered, wraparound support can look like, and communities have stepped up to provide mutual aid when systems have failed us.
Abortion funds, who have helped thousands of patients leave the state for care, bring a friend with them to their appointments, reschedule missed flights, find a hotel nearby, and have an ally through an overly complicated process. If you need a last minute gift for someone, please consider donating to an abortion fund in their name.
Storytellers, whether in legislative committee rooms or in intimate living rooms, we have changed hearts and minds through the power of our personal experiences.
Volunteers, from lawyers supporting young people in the courts to pilots flying patients and providers to health care facilities, small businesses and places of worship hosting repro kits on their counters and in their restrooms, and students educating their peers, this movement is fueled by people power.

For all that’s yet to come in 2026, may we remember that we’ll each carry what we can and that across the state and beyond, others are doing the same in solidarity in order to make this work possible.

We hope that whatever refuels you, people, pets, or places, that it’s in abundance this holiday season.

We’ll see you in 2026!

Patient Escorts Needed in Pinellas County

Due to a rise of protesters outside of an abortion clinic in Pinellas County, additional patient escorts are needed to ensure patients can enter and exit the facility safely and with minimal interactions with protesters.

There is a strict non-engagement policy: volunteer escorts will NOT engage, film, or provoke protesters.

Letters to the editor

Leaders attacking women’s rights
By Violet Irminger, Mount Dora, Orlando Sentinel
Women’s rights and our right to determine how we manage our health care continues to be challenged…If one were to take the time to read Project 2025, it is very clear that the objective is to align all federal agencies with “pro-life” policies, establishing abortion as not being health care. Furthermore, the document promotes the “tradwife” — traditional wife — which emphasizes female subservience to her husband, prioritizing bearing children over career building. If you think “The Handmaid’s Tale” was fiction, think again.
