Hi John,
When it comes to abortion access, it's no secret that the U.S. can and should do much better. The June 2022 Supreme Court decision Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization eliminated federal constitutional protection for access to abortion in the United States. The resulting lack of access to abortion in the U.S.—and consequent poor health outcomes and increases in maternal deaths and injuries—violates a range of rights under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), including the:
* right to life
* right to be free from torture and other ill-treatment
* right to privacy
* right to be free from discrimination
* rights to free expression and movement
The United Nations Human Rights Committee is currently reviewing U.S. compliance with the ICCPR, including the impact of Dobbs on its human rights obligations. Ipas partnered with Global Justice Center, State Innovation Exchange, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, RH Impact, and Obstetricians for Reproductive Justice to submit this report ([link removed]) to the Committee that details the human rights violations caused by Dobbs in the U.S.
