That’s the date The Supreme Court has set to hear oral arguments on how Americans can access mifepristone, the commonly used abortion pill that has been safely prescribed for decades.
This is the first major reproductive health care case SCOTUS will hear since it overturned Roe v. Wade. It could affect access to care for millions… like for women in Alabama, where the Supreme Court just ruled that frozen embryos created during fertility treatments can be considered children. It could even limit the freedom of women in states that have voted to protect abortion rights.
This case isn’t coming before a Supreme Court that calls balls and strikes. This Court was captured through a decades-long campaign by far-right billionaires. The right-wing majority is not looking out for women — they’re looking out for the dark money donors who got them on the Court. We need a Supreme Court that will give Americans a fair, honest hearing based on facts and precedent.
Democrats are fighting for women’s reproductive freedoms, but it’s going to take an expansion of our Senate majority to codify Roe into law and stop the far-right forces on the Court from imposing their extreme, anti-choice agenda on the American people.
Thank you,
