Abortion Is Health Care

Dear MoveOn member,

Health care is a human right. And yet, it is under attack across the country. On Monday, news broke that the right wing-hijacked Supreme Court appears to be set on overturning Roe v. Wade, which would allow horrible abortion bans to go into effect in dozens of states across the country.¹ 

While the justices have not finalized this ruling, it shows what direction the right-wing justices intend to go—they plan to overturn all of the protections afforded by Roe, immediately allowing state after state to enforce cruel abortion bans, and launch a full-on attack against reproductive rights. With the final Supreme Court decision expected in the next few weeks, now is the time for our elected officials at all levels, including President Biden to use all his power to act before any services are cut off.

Add your name to the petition now: Safe, legal and accessible abortion care is vital health care, and we need to ensure accessible, high-quality health care to everyone in America.

The abortion ban laws passing in states across the country are terrifying. In Oklahoma, Republicans passed a bill that bans abortion after 6 weeks, before many people know they are pregnant, with no exceptions for rape or incest.² This ban is particularly disastrous because it would immediately cut off most abortion access in a state that has absorbed nearly half of all Texas patients who have traveled out of state for abortions since Texas enacted a similar law last fall.³ And it's not just Oklahoma.

The recent surge of abortion bans across the country has politicized abortion as a way to increase power for the GOP and dictate what a person can and cannot do with their body.⁴ But the reality is, the right to an abortion shouldn’t be political, because access to safe, legal abortion is access to vital health care, and we need to ensure accessible, high-quality health care to everyone in America. Will you sign the petition?

Accessible and affordable health care is already limited in our country, and losing access to vital reproductive health care is just going to put more individuals and communities in danger. These bans impact marginalized communities the most,⁵ and we need public health officials to step in and take action to protect and expand access to abortion and broader reproductive health now.

Tell President Biden and the Department of Health and Human Services to take action to protect and expand abortion access now.

LA ESCASES DE FORMULAS PARA LOS BEBES ESTA VOLVIENDO LOCOS A PAREJAS CON BEBES RECIEN NACIDOS...AUNQUE HAY SOLUCIONES CASERAS

Good morning. The baby formula shortage highlights four larger problems with the U.S. economy. ‘Really scary’

Is my baby getting enough food? It is a typical fear among new parents — and an acute one now, because of a national shortage of baby formula.

A potential bacteria outbreak led to the February shutdown of a Michigan factory that makes Similac formula, and the plant still has not reopened. Its closure has aggravated shortages created by broader pandemic supply-chain problems. Last week, stores stocked about 43 percent less baby formula than usual.

“It gets really scary,” Carrie Fleming, who lives near Birmingham, Ala., told The Times. Her 3-month-old daughter, Lennix, can tolerate only one brand of formula, and Fleming could not find it anywhere near her. She finally located four small cans in New York — for $245.

In Oceanside, Calif., north of San Diego, Darice Browning was recently despondent after failing to find formula for her 10-month-old daughter, Octavia, who cannot eat solid foods. “I was freaking out, crying on the floor and my husband, Lane, came home from work and he’s like, ‘What’s wrong?’” Browning said, “and I’m like, ‘Dude, I can’t feed our kids, I don’t know what to do.’”

For many families, baby formula is a necessity. Some babies cannot drink breast milk — or enough of it to stay healthy — while many lower-income mothers work hourly jobs that do not provide time to breastfeed.

As my colleague Amanda Morris, who has been reporting on the shortage, says: “Most of the parents I spoke with around the country who were feeling the impact of this the hardest were ones that either had limited resources or time, or ones whose babies had allergies or disabilities that severely limited their choices.”

F.D.A. officials say they are trying to alleviate the crisis. Some members of Congress — including Representative Rosa DeLauro, a Connecticut Democrat, and Senator Mitt Romney, a Utah Republican — say the federal government needs to do more.

In addition to being an urgent problem for families, the shortage highlights four larger problems within the U.S. economy. Today’s newsletter focuses on them.

1. The ‘everything shortage’

The pandemic has created shortages for many goods, including cars, semiconductors and furniture.

The main reasons: Factories and ports are coping with virus outbreaks and worker shortages at the same time that consumer demand for physical goods has surged, because of government stimulus programs and a shift away from spending on services (like restaurant meals). As a result, much of the global supply chain is overloaded.

The baby formula industry was already coping with these issues before an Abbott Nutrition factory in Sturgis, Mich., shut down. The company shut the factory after four babies — all of whom had drunk formula made there — contracted a rare bacterial infection; two of the babies died. It remains unclear whether the formula caused the infections.

Because sales of baby formula do not fluctuate much in normal times, factories generally lack the ability to accelerate production quickly, Rudi Leuschner, a supply-chain expert at Rutgers University, said. As a result, other factories have not been able to make up for the Sturgis shutdown.

2. Big business

The baby formula business has something in common with many other U.S. industries: It is highly concentrated.

Three companies — Abbott, Gerber and Reckitt — make nearly all of the formula that Americans use. Abbott is the largest of the three, with roughly 40 percent of the market. A baby formula display shelf in San Diego.Ariana Drehsler for The New York Times Over the past few decades, this kind of corporate concentration has become more common in the U.S. economy, and it tends to be very good for companies. They face less competition, allowing them to keep prices higher and wages lower. Thomas Philippon, an economist at N.Y.U., refers to this trend as “the great reversal.” The subtitle of his 2019 book on the subject is “How America Gave Up on Free Markets.” For workers and consumers, concentration is often problematic. The baby-formula shortage is the latest example. If the market had more producers, a problem at any one of them might not be such a big deal. It’s even possible the problem would not happen at all. “Abbott does not fear consumers will flee,” Sarah Miller, executive director of the American Economic Liberties Project, which advocates less concentration, told me. “And it does not fear government, which has a pathetic track record when it comes to holding powerful corporations and executives accountable.” (The Times has profiled Miller and her work.) 3. Big bureaucracy Even as the industry seems to be under-regulated in some crucial ways, it may be overregulated in other, superficial ways. This newsletter has covered ways that the F.D.A.’s bureaucratic inflexibility has hampered its Covid policy, and baby formula turns out to be another case study. Many formulas sold in Europe exceed the F.D.A.’s nutritional standards, but they are banned from being sold here, often because of technicalities, like labeling, Derek Thompson of The Atlantic has noted. Donald Trump exacerbated the situation with a trade policy that made it harder to import formula from Canada. These policies benefit American formula makers, at the expense of families. The inflexibility of American regulatory and trade policy, Thompson wrote, “might be the most important part of the story.” 4. The gerontocracy The U.S. has long put a higher priority on taking care of the elderly than taking care of young families. Americans over 65 receive universal health insurance (Medicare), and most receive a regular government check (Social Security). Many children, by contrast, live in poverty. Relative to other affluent countries, the U.S. spends a notably small share of its budget on children; President Biden’s stalled Build Back Better plan aimed to change this, Urban Institute researchers have pointed out. Alyssa Rosenberg, a Washington Post columnist, argues that the formula shortage is part of this story. “Babies and their well-being have never been much of a priority in the United States,” Rosenberg wrote this week. “But an alarming shortage of infant formula — and the lack of a national mobilization to keep babies fed — provides a new measure of how deeply that indifference runs.” In her column, Rosenberg suggests the creation of a national stockpile, as exists for some other crucial resources, to prevent future shortages. For more: The Times’s Well has a guide for parents searching for formula, and Politico’s Helena Bottemiller Evich has offered tips on Twitter. Fantastic idea to supplement formulas with healthy foods for babies. Cornstarch quinoa water or soy milk Clean and cook the quinoa well then strain it and blend it and pass it through the strainer again and blend it this time with the milk. In another pot, prepare the cornstarch or cornstarch with water. bring the water to a boil and then lower the temperature and add the cornstarch dissolved in water... and add to the hot water stirring frequently without making lumps. Then in the bottle put 4 ounces of quinoa with milk and 4 ounces of cornstarch is very consistent and you will see that this is better food for your newborn children. I hope this idea can help families desperate for healthy food for their newborn children

CORTE SUPREMA PUEDE ESTAR LISTA PARA ANULAR PROYECTO ROE

Aqui estamos nuevamente apoyando los derechos de las mujeres en utah 2022

Estimada Maclovia

El borrador de opinión filtrado la semana

pasada que indica que la Corte Suprema puede estar lista para anular Roe v. Wade nos tiene a todos preocupados, y con razón.
Y hay más en juego aquí que solo el aborto. Si se anula Roe, el razonamiento en el proyecto de opinión podría generar un efecto dominó en lo que respecta a otras libertades de larga data, como el acceso a la anticoncepción.
Es importante tener en cuenta que cualquier decisión oficial que tome la Corte sobre Roe v. Wade no tendrá un efecto directo sobre el acceso o la legalidad del control de la natalidad en Utah. Pero eso no significa que no será el objetivo en algún momento, y anular Roe v. Wade allana el camino para hacerlo.
Muchos de nosotros nos hacemos la misma pregunta: si la Corte Suprema está dispuesta a anular un precedente de casi cincuenta años que han dicho que defenderían, ¿qué más anularán?
No queremos averiguarlo. Y con los republicanos en Idaho, Louisiana y Mississippi que ya están tomando medidas para prohibir la anticoncepción, tenemos que estar en alerta máxima aquí en Utah. Por eso necesitamos tu ayuda.
¿Puede contribuir hoy para que podamos seguir luchando para elegir demócratas en Utah? Dependerá de los demócratas tomar una posición en nuestra legislatura estatal y proteger a los habitantes de Utah frente a los ataques de la extrema derecha a nuestras libertades.

 
Juntos podemos animar a los votantes antes de una de las elecciones más importantes que jamás hayamos visto.

Sinceramente,

Thom DeSirant

Director general
