In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, a significant portion of states have moved to severely restrict or completely ban abortion access. However, the majority of Americans support national protections to ensure abortion remains legal and accessible. Enacting a nationwide abortion ban would strip away fundamental reproductive rights from millions of people across the country. Rather than further eroding abortion rights, Congress should be working to codify nationwide protections for abortion care. Abortion is healthcare, and pregnant individuals deserve to have their constitutional rights safeguarded. Restricting access puts lives at risk and shows a disregard for personal freedoms. I urge you to reject any proposed national abortion ban and instead prioritize legislation that defends and expands access to this essential medical service.
