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.

Fatima Goss Graves, head of the National Women’s Law Center, reminded reporters on a press call Monday night that two of Kavanaugh’s most recent opinions for the D.C. circuit court expressed a belief that a woman’s boss should be able to veto her birth control coverage and that the Trump administration should be able to hold a teenage immigrant prisoner to prevent her from terminating a pregnancy that was quite likely caused by rape. “It’s no small matter,” Graves suggested, that it was after Kavanaugh had endorsed the administration’s forced-childbirth-by-imprisonment scheme “that his name first appeared on President Trump’s list of potential Supreme Court nominees.”
