UnitedStateofWomen

To this incredible community: we are so grateful for your partnership through the ups and downs, every hard fought win, the collective mourning, and the many firsts and historic moments.

While USOW is sunsetting, our work and mission will continue because of everyone who has taken action with us, and because of our incredible partners in the gender equity movement. We couldn’t be more grateful for your support, passion, and dedication to this fight.

USOW was born out of one core motivator: our movement for gender equity will be stronger if we bring together leaders and organizations to strategize, mobilize, and drive impact together. Seven years later and that has never changed.

RT @rhimpact__: Mifepristone is both safe and effective — full stop. We signed onto a People’s Amicus Brief with @USOWomen and 140 other organizations to demand the courts reverse this harmful decision:

#OTD in 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I have a dream” speech to more than 250,000 people during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Martin Luther King Jr. and his speech will continue to inspire the fight for racial justice and equality for all.

Women’s Equality Day commemorates the 19th Amendment’s adoption to the U.S. Constitution – but the majority of women didn’t receive the right to vote in 1920. 103 years later, commemorate this day with action. Check your voter registration:

#OTD in 1920, 19th Amendment was officially adopted to the U.S. Constitution. Although its passage was a huge milestone for women’s suffrage, it took the next 45 years for all women — Asian, Black, Latina, & Indigenous women — to be granted the right to vote. #FeministFlashback

This week was filled with breaking records and historic firsts! Sha’Carri Richardson became the fastest woman alive, Natalie Hudson was named the first Black chief justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court, and so much more. 🙌 #FridayFeministWins

RT @LatinaInstitute: Our statement regarding the 5th Circuit ruling on Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA: "We are outraged that the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals wants to reinstate medically unnecessary restrictions on access to mifepristone, a safe & effective med. used in med. abortion care."

RT @PPFA: Today’s 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling does NOT affect the availability of mifepristone, one of the two medicines commonly used in medication abortion. It remains FDA-approved and available in many states across the country, including via telehealth.

🔊 Mifepristone is safe, effective, and STILL available! No matter what state you live in, you deserve access to abortion care. @Abortion_Finder is here to help you find the abortion care you need. Visit
