40 million women and girls will no longer have the right to a legal abortion after the US Supreme Court overturned the landmark decision.
The right to abortion is in the hands of each state. Half of the states are expected to ban abortion, which is a huge public health disaster.
The act of ripping reproduction rights from the hands of tens of millions of people is unconscionable and will disproportionately affect minority women who don't have enough access to health care in the US.
Women's health will be affected by the decision. It can be dangerous to carry out an unwanted pregnancy, and it can be even more dangerous if you outlaw the procedure.
It's a decision that not only turns a blind eye to the constitutional right to chose, but also to the entire scientific and medical research as a whole.
"For people who are unable to get their abortion because the Supreme Court just lets states ban abortions, we're going to see worse physical health, greater economic hardship, lower achievement of aspiration plans, and people's lives upended."
