Access Denied: How Project 2025 Threatens Reproductive Healthcare and Equity


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of Bitchy History, I’m diving into the Heritage Foundation’s blueprint for reshaping the federal government, gutting Title X, and rolling back civil liberties. Title X has been a lifeline for millions, providing access to contraception, STI testing, and cancer screenings for low-income families, rural residents, women of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals. But if Project 2025 gets its way, those essential services could disappear.

Here’s what you can expect from the episode:

A breakdown of Project 2025: What it is, who’s behind it, and why it’s so dangerous.

The history of Title X: How this federal program has quietly been saving lives since 1970.

Who gets hurt: The devastating impact these policies will have on marginalized communities.

What’s at stake: The economic, social, and public health fallout if Title X is dismantled.

What you can do: Practical steps to fight back and protect reproductive healthcare.

This episode isn’t just a history lesson—it’s a call to action. Policies like Project 2025 rely on silence and complacency to succeed. We’re here to make sure that doesn’t happen.

P.S. Want to take action today? Check out organizations like Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, and the National Network of Abortion Funds—they’re on the frontlines of this fight.
