The Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization ruling didn’t only impact me as a person who could get pregnant but also because reproductive rights were central to my existence.
Advocates are finding that in many states, ballot initiatives are an effective way to restore, protect, or expand abortion rights and access. At least 10 states will see abortion questions on their ballots this year.
Organizations that provide services and information have reported digital suppression of abortion information: “The Fight for Abortion Access Is Moving Online.”
