Cynthia Nixon

Cynthia Nixon @CynthiaNixon Almost 60 years ago, my mother had an illegal abortion. It was too harrowing for her to discuss, but she made sure I knew it had happened. In 2010, my wife had a legal abortion after we found out her pregnancy was not viable. We cannot and will not go back. #YouKnowMe #YouKnowUs 5:12 PM-15 May 2019

Safe Enough

Jess Phoenix @jessphoenix2018 If you think you don't know anyone who has had an abortion, that's because no one you know has felt safe enough with you to share their truth with you. #YouKnowMe 1:50 PM-15 May 2019

Death Penalty

Dasniue Mietomn @NotDorothy Let me point out that Alabama and Missouri have passed these bills stating it is to preserve ALL life. Yet, both states still have and use the death penalty. Alabama has an execution scheduled for today. It's not about life. It's about control and religion. #You KnowMe 6:20 AM-16 May 2019

21

Deb K-G @Kysyja I was 21, single, and pregnant. I did not want to be a single mom. It was 1974. The decision to have an abortion was not difficult. I was very relieved afterward & I've had no regrets. I'm grateful to the 7 justices who ruled in favor of #womensrights. Now #YouKnowMe even better 4:24 AM-17 May 2019

19

Alexis Byrns MrzLexyDByrnz I was 19. On BC & Antibiotics. Found out I was pregnant during my placebo week. I was a Working FF/Medic. I was scared. I called clinics, churches & adoption agencies. NOT ONE pro-life option treated me w/ respect. I felt judged & shamed. I was told I was going to hell #YouKnowMe 8:38 AM 17 May 2019

Texas

Cecile Richards @CecileRichards I had an abortion. It was the right decision for me, and it wasn't a hard one. My husband and I were working more than full time and had three kids already. I was fortunate that, at the time, accessing abortion in TX was not the nightmare it is now. #YouKnowMe 8:01 AM -16 May 2019

Dangerous

Vanessa Lannister. Lil Pedro4Lyfe My mom told me today that back in the day pregnant girls would repeatedly ride across train tracks on the back of motorcycles in hopes to abort pregnancies. Other they would throw themselves down the stair. You can't ban it. You can only make it more dangerous. #YouKnowMe 6:59 PM - 15 May 2019
