One year after Roe v. Wade’s reversal, warnings about abortion become reality
June 24 marked one year since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, bringing devastating consequences to people across the country. Multiple media outlets reported on the grim reality of a year without Roe, highlighting the chaos and instability that the decision has caused for doctors, patients, and their loved ones. Several Center leaders and plaintiffs—including President and CEO Nancy Northup, Interim Director of Litigation Autumn Katz, and Amanda Zurawski, lead plaintiff in Zurawski v. Texas—were interviewed.
“A lot of people, I think, didn’t understand the sweeping impacts that these laws could and are having on real women, including myself,” said Zurawski in an exclusive interview on MSNBC’s The ReidOut. “What I hope now is to give a voice to all of the other women that this is happening to, that it has happened to, that it will happen to. And I hope to give some courage to other women to take similar action in their own states because we know that this is happening all over the country, and we need to fight back.”
