Birth control is essential to our reproductive freedom and should be accessible to all who need it.

I'm grateful for the progress we've made, and I'll keep fighting to pass our Act to & make free OTC birth control a reality for everyone.

The extremist MAGA agenda is dangerous, cruel & putting women’s lives at risk.

Women’s health care decisions should be made between a woman & her doctor – not politicians.

I will never stop fighting to reinstate women's right to choose their own pathways in life.

Can’t believe we have to say this, but birth control should always be available to everyone who needs it. I will always fight to protect American freedoms along with my colleagues in the Pro-Choice Caucus.

Birth control pills have empowered women & girls to control their own bodies, their own health care, & their own futures.

We must fight back against extremist attacks on our health care.

Today marks 64 years since the FDA approved the first birth control pill, a milestone for reproductive rights.

With access to contraception under scrutiny, I'm proud to cosponsor the Right to Contraception Act, so we can finally enshrine access to birth control in law.

in 1960, the FDA approved the 1st birth control pill. For the past 64 yrs, contraception has been critical to women’s health, freedom, & economic success.

I’ll always fight back against anti-abortion extremists who have set their sights on restricting contraception access.

On this day in 1960, the U.S. FDA approved the first-ever birth control pill.

64 years later, the right to contraception is still being challenged by extreme judges and politicians.

I won't rest until all our reproductive freedoms are protected across America.

Congressman Seth Magaziner(@Rep_Magaziner) 's Twitter Profile Photo

64 years ago, the FDA approved the first birth control pill. Now, reproductive health care – even contraception – is under attack.

Case in point: 92% of House Republicans voted against a bill to ensure access to contraceptives nationwide.

We cannot let them take us backwards.

in 1960, the FDA approved the first birth control pill. But today, our right to use FDA-approved contraception of our choice is under attack. That's why I've cosponsored the Right to the Contraception Act. Yesterday, I voted again to have the House to consider it.

Contraception is one of the most important advancements for women's health. The most popular form of it – the birth control pill – was born right here in Massachusetts.

In 1960, the FDA approved the first birth control pill. Today, MAGA extremists aren’t just attacking abortion, they are also coming for contraception and reproductive health care.

Birth control pills are safe, effective, and necessary. We must protect birth control access.
