An Attack on Our Rights
The Supreme Court’s likely reversal of Roe v. Wade is a blatant threat to a free and equitable society.
Lack of access to legal and safe abortions will overwhelmingly and disproportionately harm Black and brown women, immigrant women, and all those who can least afford it.
It will threaten the economic security of millions, particularly in states with trigger-law abortion bans.
And it will strike a blow to our democracy, and all of our intertwined rights.
As Andrea Flynn wrote in a 2017 Roosevelt report, "the end goal of economic security is not financial stability in and of itself, but rather the ability to lead a life of freedom and dignity.”
Abortion rights are essential to that vision. We must protect them.
