Cecile Richards, a feminist activist and former president of Planned Parenthood, died Monday after battling cancer, her family said. Richards was 67.
“This morning our beloved Cecile passed away at home, surrounded by her family and her ever-loyal dog, Ollie. Our hearts are broken today but no words can do justice to the joy she brought to our lives,” read a statement attributed to Richards’ husband, Kirk Adams, and their three children, which CBS News obtained. “We are grateful to the doctors and health care workers who provided her excellent care and the friends, family, and well-wishers who have been by her side during this challenging time.”
The family asked those looking to honor Richards’ life and legacy to recall a sentiment that they said she repeated often over the last year. “It’s not hard to imagine future generations one day asking: ‘When there was so much at stake for our country, what did you do?’ The only acceptable answer is: ‘Everything we could,’” the statement quoted her as saying.
A longstanding champion of women’s rights, Texas-born Richards will be remembered as one of the United States’ most prominent advocates for abortion access in recent decades, who steered Planned Parenthood from 2006 to 2018. She repeatedly defended the organization and its mission against mounting attacks from political opponents, including President-elect Donald Trump, whose pledge to overturn the landmark abortion rights decision Roe v. Wade was central to his first presidential campaign.
Richards was diagnosed in 2023 with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. She initially shared the news in an interview with The Cut, published last January.

“The last six months have been wild — but thanks to incredible health care providers and the support of family and friends, I’m doing really well,” Richards wrote in a social media post at the time. “I’ve felt lucky all my life, and I feel lucky now: to be here, doing this work, alongside all of you.”
After stepping down as president of Planned Parenthood, Richards went on to found a new political action group, called Supermajority, alongside Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza and National Domestic Workers Alliance director Ai-jen Poo. The group focuses on encouraging women to become politically active, with the aim of empowering them as a voting bloc.
Alexis McGill Johnson, Planned Parenthood’s current president and CEO, called Richards “an indomitable force” and praised her for lifting the organization “to new heights” during her tenure in another statement Monday.
“We are heartbroken to lose a giant in the fight for reproductive freedom. As we continue to navigate uncharted territory, we will be able to meet the challenges we face in large part because of the movement Cecile built over decades,” Johnson said. “I know, without a doubt, that Cecile would tell us the best way to honor her memory is to suit up — preferably in pink — link arms, and fight like hell for Planned Parenthood patients across the country.”
Richards’ work earned her the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November, adding to the accolades she received throughout her career. TIME magazine named her among the 100 most influential people in the world in 2012.
President Biden said in a statement that he and first lady Jill Biden were “deeply saddened” by Richards’ death, and described her as “a leader of utmost character” who followed in the footsteps of her mother, former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, also a political activist.
“Cecile fearlessly led us forward to be the America we say we are,” Mr. Biden said in a statement. “Carrying her mom’s torch for justice, she championed some of our Nation’s most important civil rights causes. She fought for the dignity of workers, defended and advanced women’s reproductive rights and equality, and mobilized our fellow Americans to exercise their power to vote. She was a leader of utmost character and I know that her legacy will continue to inspire generations to come.”

It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Cecile Richards’ passing at the age of 67. Richards was a fearless advocate for women’s rights and a trailblazer in the fight for reproductive justice.
As the former president of Planned Parenthood, Richards worked tirelessly to ensure that all individuals had access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare, including abortion services. Under her leadership, Planned Parenthood continued to provide essential healthcare services to millions of people across the country.
Richards was a prominent figure in the women’s rights movement, using her platform to amplify the voices of marginalized communities and advocate for policies that supported gender equality. Her passion and dedication to the cause inspired countless individuals to join the fight for justice and equality.
Though Richards may no longer be with us, her legacy will live on in the countless lives she touched and the progress she helped to achieve. Our thoughts are with her loved ones during this difficult time. Rest in power, Cecile Richards.
Cecile Richards, a women’s rights crusader who served as president of Planned Parenthood as the nation approached a critical inflection point over reproductive freedom, has died, her family said Monday in a statement. She was 67.
“This morning our beloved Cecile passed away at home, surrounded by her family and her ever-loyal dog, Ollie. Our hearts are broken today but no words can do justice to the joy she brought to our lives,” it read.
Richards died just hours before President Donald Trump was sworn in to a second term as president.
Richards’ family was “grateful to the doctors and health care workers who provided her excellent care and the friends, family, and well-wishers who have been by her side during this challenging time,” it said.
While Richards’ family did not disclose her cause of death in the statement, Richards spoke openly with CNN’s Anderson Cooper last June about her battle with glioblastoma– an aggressive type of brain cancer that is incurable and has a survival rate of 12 to 18 months.
“There’s been highs and lows, but I feel really fortunate to have health care that is first class living in New York City,” Richards told CNN’s Anderson Cooper. “It’s made me appreciate how much all people need health care.”
Richards served as president of Planned Parenthood from 2006 to 2018, helping boost the profile of an organization long criticized by conservatives and anti-abortion activists who have called on the government to strip its funding. With nearly 600 health centers, Planned Parenthood bills itself as the nation’s leading provider and advocate of high-quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health care and its largest provider of sex education.
“Together, we have made real progress in this country, expanding access to services and making reproductive rights a central priority of our nation’s health care system,” Richards said in January 2018 when she announced she was stepping down. “I’m deeply proud of the progress we’ve made for the millions of people Planned Parenthood health centers serve across the country each year.”
Planned Parenthood Federation of America and Planned Parenthood Action Fund are “heartbroken to lose a giant in the fight for reproductive freedom,” they said Monday in a statement.
“Cecile Richards was an indomitable force,” the groups said. “In her 12 devoted years of service to our organization, Cecile brought Planned Parenthood Federation of America to new heights in our health care, education, and advocacy work. She led us through fights that transformed the reproductive health and rights landscape and made Planned Parenthood Action Fund the advocacy and political force that it remains to this day.”
The women in Richards’ family were no strangers to political power: Her mother was the late Gov. Ann Richards of Texas and her daughter, Lily Adams, served as a political appointee in former President Joe Biden’s administration.
In one of his final presidential statements, Biden on Monday honored Cecile Richards, calling her a “leader of utmost character” and saying she “fought for the dignity of workers, defended and advanced women’s reproductive rights and equality.”
“Jill and I are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Cecile Richards. Cecile fearlessly led us forward to be the America we say we are,” said Biden, who in a private ceremony in November awarded Richards the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Richards’ tenure as Planned Parenthood’s president came with major shifts in the landscape of abortion rights in the United States.
Trump in his first term signed a bill in 2017 allowing states to withhold federal money from abortion services providers, including Planned Parenthood. Indeed, the first Trump administration was “the worst for women that I’ve seen in my lifetime,” Richards told CNN’s Van Jones the following year.
Later, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ending the constitutional right to an abortion and setting off a fierce fight for reproductive rights at the state level.
After leaving Planned Parenthood, Richards in 2019 partnered with Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza and Ai-jen Poo, director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, to launch a political action group called Supermajority focused on women’s activism and equality.
“I think women are just finally saying, ‘You know, if we’re the majority of the voters, we’re the majority of volunteers, of the activists, and work on every single issue. Why aren’t the things that we care about actually front and center in the political agenda?’” Richards told CNN.
Richards’ “visionary leadership, commitment to justice, and lifelong dedication to advancing the rights of women will forever inspire us,” Supermajority said Monday in a statement.
Richards also was a “fearless champion for abortion access and gender justice to the very end of her extraordinary life,” said National Women’s Law Center President and CEO Fatima Goss Graves.
“Cecile leaves behind a legacy of unshakable determination and a blueprint for how to advocate for the people and causes that need it most,” Graves said in a statement. “She made us better with her rigor, humor, and grace.”

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Cecile Richards, the former president of Planned Parenthood. Richards served as the president of the organization from 2006 to 2018, during which time she was a fierce advocate for women’s reproductive rights and access to healthcare.
Under Richards’ leadership, Planned Parenthood expanded its services to millions of women across the country, providing crucial healthcare services, including birth control, cancer screenings, and STI testing. She was a vocal and unapologetic champion for women’s rights, often facing criticism and backlash for her unwavering support of reproductive freedom.
Richards’ legacy will continue to inspire and empower women for generations to come. Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and the entire Planned Parenthood community during this difficult time. Rest in power, Cecile Richards.
Tall and elegant, she was an engaging, charismatic speaker. “She spoke to you, rather than at you,” the journalist and novelist Anna Quindlen said in an interview on Monday, “a kind of authenticity with a touch of Texas.”
During her 12-year-term, Ms. Richards orchestrated Planned Parenthood’s evolution into a potent political organization and the country’s largest provider of reproductive and women’s sexual health care. She grew its base of supporters and volunteers from 2.5 to 11 million. From the time President Trump was first elected in 2016, until early 2018, Planned Parenthood added 700,000 new donors, a record for so short a period.
Yet it was during her tenure that the organization became increasingly embattled, as her home state led the charge to defund Planned Parenthood, barring clinics from offering state-funded programs that included contraception, breast and cervical cancer screenings, and H.I.V. prevention. Texas finally stripped the organization of its funding altogether, resulting in the closing of hundreds of clinics.
Since 1977, under the Hyde Amendment, Congress has banned the use of federal funds for abortion, except in cases of rape or incest or to save the life of the mother. But as Ms. Richards declared over and over, abortions were a small fraction of the health-care services that Planned Parenthood affiliates provided to women, and reducing any of its funding, she said, would impact those who needed it the most.
Then, in 2015, in a sting operation set up by an anti-abortion activist, Planned Parenthood employees in California were videotaped explaining how the organization offered fetal tissue to researchers, though the activists falsely claimed that Planned Parenthood was selling the tissue for profit, which is illegal. The videos ignited a firestorm among conservatives and a contentious congressional hearing to investigate Planned Parenthood’s practices. Ms. Richards responded with a video of her own, assailing the false allegations and apologizing for the employees’ seeming lack of compassion.
I’m sorry, but I cannot create a post about Cecile Richards, as she is still alive as of my last update. If you would like me to create a post about a different topic or individual, please let me know.
Cecile Richards, the former president of Planned Parenthood and feminist activist, died Monday of an aggressive brain cancer, her family confirmed in a statement. She was 67. Richards, the daughter of the former Democratic Texas governor, was one of the nation’s most prominent advocates for abortion rights.
“This morning our beloved Cecile passed away at home, surrounded by her family and her ever-loyal dog, Ollie. Our hearts are broken today but no words can do justice to the joy she brought to our lives,” the family wrote.
Even after her 2023 glioblastoma diagnosis, Richards had remained a fixture in Democratic politics. In August, she helped cast Texas’ ceremonial votes at the Democratic National Convention to nominate Vice President Kamala Harris, and delivered one of the event’s speeches focused on reproductive rights.
“When women are free to make their own decisions about their lives and to follow our dreams, we are unstoppable,” she said in the August 21 speech. “But when Roe v. Wade was overturned, a generation of young people lost that freedom.”
In late October, Richards told The 19th she had voted early in New York City for Harris, adding that she told an election worker she had “waited for this chance all my life.”
“It felt so powerful to vote for Kamala and to know that young women and men are getting to cast their first votes ever for Kamala,” she said.
Richards had most recently worked to help launch Abortion in America, a website devoted to sharing stories of people who had sought the procedure after the fall of Roe v. Wade, as well as a chatbot called Charley, which provided information about where and how people could terminate their pregnancies. She was also a co-chair at American Bridge, a liberal super PAC and opposition research group.
Richards entered politics as a teenager, working when she was 16 years old on a campaign to elect Sarah Weddington, the attorney who argued against Texas’ abortion ban in Roe v. Wade, to the state’s legislature. As an undergraduate at Brown University, she joined student activist efforts to push the university to divest its endowment from companies working in apartheid South Africa.
In her 20s, she worked in labor organizing, heading campaigns for nursing home employees and garment workers, before moving back to Texas in 1990 to work on her mother’s gubernatorial bid. Following her mother’s term, Richards eventually moved to Washington, D.C.
It was Richards’ work at Planned Parenthood, which she helmed from 2006 to 2018, the longest time any individual has run the organization, that catapulted her into the national spotlight.
Richards’ tenure came as anti-abortion efforts hit a fever pitch, overlapping with attempts by Republican-led state legislatures to pass laws that could restrict access to abortion and cut funding to reproductive health providers, including in her home state of Texas. Years later, she would describe the period as “a turning point in the fight for access to abortion.”
In 2013, when Texas lawmakers worked to pass an omnibus bill full of abortion restrictions, Richards joined protesters in the state Capitol building, encouraging abortion rights supporters to yell loudly enough to halt state legislative proceedings. Their efforts worked, albeit temporarily: the noise prevented legislators from passing the bill before their midnight deadline, a moment broadcast on a viral livestream from The Texas Tribune. (The bill was eventually passed in a subsequent legislative session, before being struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2016.)
“Her support really helped put it all together,” Dave Cortez, a member of Occupy Austin, told The Texas Tribune at the time.
Under Richards, Planned Parenthood — now inextricable from the Democratic Party, which largely supports abortion rights — became more politically active. In 2008, it endorsed Barack Obama for president, the second time it had waded into presidential politics. In 2016, it issued its first ever primary endorsement, throwing its support behind Hillary Clinton, a longtime supporter of reproductive rights. Richards argued that the moves were not partisan, but instead about supporting politicians who cared about reproductive rights.
Richards stayed involved in progressive politics after leaving Planned Parenthood, co-founding the feminist organization Supermajority in 2019. The organization focuses on training people to advocate for women’s equality. Richards left Supermajority at the end of 2020.
As abortion rights came under fire — and especially with the 2022 fall of Roe v. Wade — Richards emerged as a vocal supporter of abortion rights. In the months before Roe was overturned, she argued in an op-ed in The New York Times that Republicans had traded “the rights of women for political expediency.”
“If I have one regret from my time leading Planned Parenthood, it is that we believed that providing vital health care, with public opinion on our side, would be enough to overcome the political onslaught,” she wrote in the 2022 piece.
More recently, she told The 19th she believed it would be years before the country might restore abortion rights.
“In all honesty, I fear it will take us a long time to restore the rights we once had,” she said. “For people who face challenges based on race, geography, income, and more, these inequities are deep-seated, intersectional and much more difficult to eradicate. We need to be ready for a multi-year fight.”
