The Supreme Court decision isn't enough
The Supreme Court decision isn't enough
We achieved a monumental victory when the Supreme Court struck down Texas' extreme anti-abortion law that closed dozens of clinics.
Now? Not much has changed for 30 million women for whom access to abortion care is still unaffordable or too far away.
But, especially with the Court's ruling, too many people think America has "abortion on demand"--a dangerous myth that is hurting literally millions of women and families who need abortion care. That's why we made this graphic--the public needs to know what is supposed to be a Constitutional right is anything but, and we need to start by educating our friends, family, and neighbors. Can you share to let to your friends know the facts?
