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.

Every week, the National Women’s Law Center hears directly from people across the country who are not able to get birth control. A recent story featured Amber who wanted to use birth control following a devastating miscarriage. But the religiously-affiliated university where she worked denied this coverage for its employees. Amber* and her husband struggled to afford the $600 upfront fee to cover the cost of an out-of-pocket IUD. The specifics of Amber’s situation may be unique, but her story is not an anomaly. Across the country, people need birth control —and they can’t afford to wait for it.
