Codify Abortion Rights
In June of 2022, the Supreme Court flouted 50 years of legal precedent and ruled to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision protecting abortion access for pregnant people at the federal level. Since then, states across the country have moved to restrict or outright ban abortion care.
Codifying abortion access through federal legislation is one of our last options to protect pregnant people. The Women’s Health Protection Act (S.701) creates legal protections for both abortion providers and abortion care patients at the federal level, filling in the void left by the overturning of Roe v. Wade. The bill safeguards access to abortion care nationwide by preventing restrictions such as six-week bans, mandatory delay periods, biased anti-choice abortion counseling, and medically unnecessary ultrasounds.
Nobody should face forced birth. The rights to privacy and bodily autonomy are fundamental in a free and fair society. Demand your Senators support and immediately pass S. 701.
