FAQs from Our Conversation Guide
After the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade, the ability to access abortion depends on where you live. For those living in states where care is banned, there are two main choices: seeking care in another state if you are able or being forced to carry a pregnancy against your will.
Yes, abortion is one of the safest medical procedures performed today. It’s 99 percent safe, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nearly one in three women will have an abortion in her lifetime. As a matter of fact, six out of every 10 women who have abortions are already mothers.
No. Anti-abortion rights politicians won’t stop with only banning abortion in only some of the states across the country, they want to completely ban care nationwide and will do so if they are put into power. And if a national ban is passed, state protections for care will be wiped away completely. That’s why this election is so important.
Yes, Congress can pass a law that would protect access to abortion nationwide and override many of the harmful state bans. But that won’t be possible unless we elect a strong, pro-abortion rights majority in the U.S. House and Senate this November that will fight for our fundamental rights.
In many states, state supreme courts, governors, and state legislatures – all elected officials – will be the ones making policies on abortion rights. That’s why it’s so important to vote for your rights in your local offices as well as federal ones.
