Dear team,
The United States, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Poland are the only four countries that have removed legal grounds for abortion since 1994. These countries are regressing their laws and policies to deny people the right to health care and reproductive autonomy. We’ll need you with us, right now, to keep fighting forward. [[link removed]]
FIGHT FORWARD [[link removed]]
Since 1994, 61 countries around the world have liberalized their abortion laws. This reform, no matter how incremental, has the power to transform people's lives.

The impact of restrictive abortion laws fall hardest on people who already face discriminatory obstacles to health care-particularly Black, Indigenous, and other people of color, those with disabilities, people in rural areas, young people, and people having a hard time making ends meet. Every country that is moving backwards, including the United States, is putting pregnant people at serious, life-threatening risk.
The Center for Reproductive Rights is fighting forward, despite these regressions, and we'll need your support.
* In El Salvador, we’re working to bring justice to women who had serious pregnancy complications and were imprisoned due to the severe enforcement of El Salvador’s absolute abortion ban.
* In Nicaragua, we’re expecting a ruling this year in our cases on behalf of four girls, all survivors of sexual violence from Ecuador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.
* In Poland, we’re working with partners to research and provide guidance on the serious harms that result from Poland’s restrictive laws on abortion especially on those entering Poland when fleeing violence in Ukraine.
* And in the United States, we’re fighting forward for abortion rights on numerous fronts, from our groundbreaking case in Texas representing women who were denied abortion, to our work to maintain access to medication abortion.
