One Year Post-Roe: Reflections on U.S. and Global Abortion Rights
June 29, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
As we reach the one-year mark of the fall of Roe, the Guttmacher Institute’s dire predictions about the damage to come have borne out. Abortion bans and restrictions now deny millions of people in the U.S. the essential care they need to control their own reproductive futures, with the threat of an essential medication for medical abortion under attack in the federal courts. Globally, our allies watch with concern to prepare for the potential implications around the world.
In the face of these challenges, Guttmacher, together with our partners and allies in the U.S. and global abortion rights movement are fighting back. Please join us for a dynamic discussion on the consequences and implications for action one year since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
