Extremist judges will not stop endangering the lives of pregnant people or people who may become pregnant—overturning Roe v. Wade, attacking medication abortion, threatening the future of IVF, and this week at SCOTUS, emergency abortion care.
Our lawyers are waging strategic fights that make clear what is at stake for people who can become pregnant and seek to bolster our fundamental rights to control our lives, futures, and destinies.

A recent study conducted by the National Women’s Law Center found that mothers are paid 71 cents for each dollar earned by fathers, even when the occupation is accounted. Emily Martin, NWLC vice president for workplace justice, told the Chicago Tribune in April, “But if you look at, for example, retail sales supervisors, that’s a place where there are a lot of moms employed and there are a lot of dads employed: Dads typically make about $24 an hour in that occupation, while moms typically make $15 an hour. So there are huge gaps, even when you correct for occupation.”
