Reckless legislation blocks minors from calling suicide prevention hotline without parental consent
State Rep. Plakon (R – Lake Mary) has confirmed her reckless bill, (HB 1505) to restrict minors’ access to a wide range of health care services, would block young Floridians from calling a suicide prevention hotline without parental consent.

Florida’s young people in jeopardy
If HB 1505 passes, it will create immense confusion and unnecessary interference with the doctor patient relationship. A minor will be unable to be prescribed birth control, receive treatment for an STI, or access outpatient mental health crisis services if a parent does not consent. This is extremely dangerous: untreated STIs can lead to cancer, reduced motor functions, infertility, and even death.

Take Action: Protect Direct Democracy and Citizen-led Amendments
Thanks to citizen-led ballot initiatives to amend the state Constitution, Florida voters have raised the minimum wage, protected our beaches from oil drilling, legalized medical marijuana, created universal voluntary pre-kindergarten for children, and passed many other reforms when politicians in Tallahassee have refused to act.

Fighting for Reproductive Freedom in Florida’s 2025 Legislative Session
This Legislative Session, we’re sending a clear message: politicians are never more qualified to make health care decisions for us than we are. Learn about the bills impacting reproductive health and freedom.

Protect our state parks
Right now, the “State Park Protection Act” (SB 80/HB 209), which aims to prevent DeSantis, or any future governor, from recklessly paving over our beloved state parks is moving through the Legislature. We need your help to not only ensure this legislation passes, but to make it stronger.

The people have spoken: end the abortion ban
We need your urgent support of House Bill 1139/Senate Bill 870: a bill to end Florida’s near-total abortion ban. Florida’s ban is dangerous, unnecessary, and unpopular with voters who, in November of last year, supported overturning the ban with 57% of the vote.

The NEWS you can use
With a regressive administration at the helm of our nation’s government, the 2025 Florida legislative session soon to be underway, and numerous special elections this year, it’s more important than ever to stay on top of current political and policy news.

Did you vote by mail? Read this
Were you among the more than three million Floridians who voted by mail in the November election? If so, we have some important info to share.

Students need information, not stigma
Last year, most students in Florida received no reproductive health education.
How is that possible? In 2023, the state legislature passed House Bill 1069 (the same bill that led to book bans and censorship of LGBTQ+ content in schools), which required the Florida Department of Education (DOE) to approve any materials used for sexual and health education.
