Reproductive Rights: Facing a Post-Roe Reality
During these tenuous times, attacks against reproductive rights, especially the right to choose an abortion, are at an all time high across the nation. We will discuss the current state of reproductive health access in Florida and across the country, as well as what it could mean for pregnant persons seeking abortion in the event the Supreme Court of the United States finds in favor of the State of Mississippi in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Org scheduled for oral argument on December 1st.
