Just like when abortion was illegal before, abortion won't end, it will just become dangerous and cost women their lives. This ruling joins the list of the worst decisions in the Court’s long history.

We are learning in real time the potential impact of how a post-Roe ban will affect abortion access in Texas if the Dobbs decision overturns Roe v. Wade. This ruling is devastating for our communities. 🧵

"Honestly this is a dream come true for me, for South Texas," @MayraFlores2022 says on Fox. "In South Texas, we’re pro-life, somos pro-vida, so this was a big win for us and South Texas, but also for our country." #TX34

This is not the reality we should be facing in 21st century America. We are heartbroken for all of our patients, friends, neighbors, and staff who are facing insurmountable barriers.

@SCOTUSblog overturned Roe v Wade fulfilling a promise from Donald Trump that his judges would overturn 50 years of precedent soon after being installed. This will lead to near total ban in half the states. Elections have consequences. #VOTE https://t.co/kbRCaNn1lP

The same will be true in about a dozen other states in this country.
Post Roe life is here.
When you think being pregnant in Texas couldn't be any more frightening.
