Challenges to Roe
Challenges to Roe
In the current issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, Drs. Alexi Wright and Ingrid Katz report on the lack of abortion access and the Federal Abortion Ban in the U.S.
The article notes:
As new legislation is passed, the courts will hear more cases that challenge Roe, and physicians may increasingly risk their careers and their lives if they choose to provide abortions. With each new decision to limit abortion, more American women lose their access. Whether the Supreme Court ultimately upholds or overturns the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, one thing is certain: poor women in rural America are bearing the brunt of these decisions, and some may pay with their lives.
