Bangladesh has experienced significant political tumult in the past year and there is concern that as the parliamentary election (scheduled for January 5, 2014) approaches, street violence will escalate, jeopardizing the country’s nascent democratic system. While the threat from terrorism had diminished to some extent under the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the recent execution of an Islamist politician and the sentencing to death of other opposition leaders accused of war crimes during Bangladesh’s war of independence in 1971 have unleashed furor among Islamists.
members, who need access to care. when we put in constraints on access, we are harming those most marginalized already. those who have economic challenges to receive the care they determine is right for them, those who are already facing medical discrimination, like our black, brown, and queer communities. and so the more expansion of access we could have, the better. right now, what we re doing instead is we re putting extremist ideologies in the way of standard health care. we have planned parenthood provide, safe comprehensive health care and will continue to fight a bill to do that here in the state of florida and across the. country one of the things worth noting is that planned parenthood says that they are seeing a lot of people come to this clinic from out of state. many surrounding states to florida, have even more restrictive abortion policies. so that is what is happening, but really, the mood here is one of uncertainty and it is definitely one of fear, according to the wo
to fight it. abortion care in the state of florida deserves to be expanded so that we can reach every single one of our community members who need access to care. when we put in constraints on access, we are having those most marginalized already. those who have economic challenges to receive the care that they have determined is right for them, those who are already facing medical discrimination, like our black brown and queer communities. and so the more expansion of access that we can have, the better. rightnow instead of what we are doing is we re putting extremist ideologies, in the way of standard health care. we have planned parenthood provide safe, comprehensive health care, and we will continue to fight to be able to do that here in the state of florida, and across the country. now, officials here planned parenthood tell me that women are scared. there s a lot of uncertainty at this point as to what these laws mean for their access to safe abortion care. we are also seeing,
