John,
With a leaked draft confirming that the Supreme Court is set to
overturn Roe v. Wade later this year, we must consider the real-world
impact that would be immediately felt, especially in the thirteen states
that have already passed trigger laws that will automatically ban
abortions upon the Supreme Court overturning it.
Our CEO, Yvette Simpson made this point quite well on ABC's This Week
pointing out that the practical enforcement of these laws will lead to
states taking incredibly intrusive actions, including tracking anyone that
is pregnant across state lines.

Make no mistake about what's happening. The Supreme Court overturning Roe
will lead to death and jail time and lives hang in the balance if Congress
doesn't act. That's why we're doing everything we can to make Roe law now.
Nearly 70% of Americans, including close to 40% of Republicans, believe
abortions should continue to be legal. Both President Biden and Vice
President Harris ran on a commitment to make Roe law.
There's no getting around the fact when states ban legal abortion, women
die.
The good news is that Congress can stop abortion bans and protect the
right to choose nationwide right now by making Roe federal law, and the
Senate plans to bring it up for a vote this week.
