John, 51 years ago today, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized a woman’s constitutional right to make her own family-planning decisions free from government overreach.
Over a year since Roe was overturned, women and families across the country have felt the impact from a lack of access to life-saving medical care. Not even 100 days after the Dobbs decision, nearly 22 million women of reproductive age found themselves living in states where lifesaving reproductive care was unavailable and criminalized.
In Oklahoma: - Doctors that provide reproductive care face a felony and years in prison
- Reproductive care is completely banned even in cases of sexual assault
-
Over 75% of OBGYNs surveyed stated they plan to leave OK, destroying our women’s healthcare system

As a member of the Pro-life caucus, Stephanie Bice wants to eliminate access to reproductive care entirely for women across the country. With over 70% of women in Oklahoma against these cruel and restrictive laws, it’s clear that Bice either doesn’t know what her constituents want, or she simply doesn't care.
When extremist politicians like Bice and the “Pro-Life Caucus” are able to outweigh decades of scientific evidence and safety, we’ve reached rock bottom. This isn’t a political issue. Women’s healthcare is a basic human right.
