Team,
This afternoon, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a new lawsuit
against the state of Texas over its radical ban on abortion after six
weeks of pregnancy. This new case comes just one week after the U.S.
Supreme Court denied our emergency request to block the law.
This is the first time in history that the U.S. federal government has
sued a state to protect access to abortion.
I wanted you to see my full statement, below, on this critical step in
the fight to protect access to abortion care in Texas and across the
country.
- Nancy
Statement from Nancy Northup, President and CEO of the Center for
Reproductive Rights
It's a game changer that the Department of Justice has joined the
legal battle to restore constitutionally protected abortion access in
Texas and disarm vigilantes looking to collect their bounties.
Right now, and every day this law is in effect, patients are being
denied access to essential health care, and the hardest hit are people
of color, those struggling to make ends meet, undocumented immigrants
and others with pre-existing obstacles to access health care.
