Pop star Olivia Rodrigo has intensified her advocacy for reproductive rights by appearing in a new campaign tied to Planned Parenthood, criticizing federal funding cuts enacted during President Donald Trump's second term that the organization says contributed to the closure of nearly 30 health centers across the United States.
The campaign, released this week through social media channels promoting Rodrigo's upcoming Daisy Chain Fields music festival, arrives as Planned Parenthood continues warning that changes to federal funding have forced multiple clinics to cease operations. The organization has argued that reduced federal support has affected access to reproductive health services in several communities.
According to a July report released by the Planned Parenthood Action Fund and the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, nearly 30 health centers have closed since the organization lost federal funding under legislation signed during Trump's administration. Planned Parenthood maintains that the closures have reduced access to preventive and reproductive health care, while supporters of the funding changes have argued that federal resources should not support abortion providers.
Rodrigo's video adopts that criticism directly.
The campaign opens with text describing the impact of the clinic closures before transitioning into a choreographed performance featuring Rodrigo and other women dancing to her song My Way. The accompanying caption includes a pointed message directed at lawmakers: "Don't go, go making decisions where you don't belong."
The latest campaign reflects a broader advocacy effort Rodrigo has pursued in recent years rather than an isolated political statement.
In April 2025, Rodrigo accepted the Catalyst of Change Award during Planned Parenthood's Spring Into Action Gala in New York, where she spoke about what she described as the growing challenges facing young women seeking reproductive health care.
During that event, Rodrigo said: "We exist in a society that politicizes our bodies and employs damaging ideologies to deny us safety and healthcare."
She continued: "It pains me to consider that, due to repressive laws and antiquated policies, some young women may not be able to pursue their aspirations as I was fortunate to do."
Rodrigo also honored former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, encouraging supporters to continue advocating for reproductive rights despite political setbacks.
The singer's latest campaign also serves as a promotional launch for Daisy Chain Fields, a one-day music festival scheduled for Aug. 29 at Great Park in Irvine, California.
Festival organizers say all net proceeds from the event will benefit organizations supporting women and girls, including Planned Parenthood.
The lineup features artists from multiple generations, including:
- Stevie Nicks
- Garbage
- Chappell Roan
- Doechii
- Mitski
- Bikini Kill
- Olivia Rodrigo
Rodrigo has previously clashed publicly with the Trump administration over the use of her music.
In November 2025, she criticized the Department of Homeland Security and the White House after they used her song All-American B-tch in a social media video encouraging undocumented immigrants to self-deport.
Responding publicly, Rodrigo wrote: "Don't ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda," before the comment was later removed and the song was reportedly taken out of the government-produced video.
Her dispute mirrors similar objections raised by other high-profile musicians over the use of their work in political contexts. Beyoncé's label reportedly issued a cease-and-desist letter after her song Freedom was used during the 2024 campaign cycle, while the Foo Fighters publicly criticized the use of My Hero during a political rally and announced they would donate resulting royalties to then-Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign.
