She believes this will directly impact ‘’mostly poor women who have no other options,’

The overturning of Roe v. Wade is one of the biggest injustices against women. It’s a social setback that will affect so many women alive now and future generations to come. It breaks my heart to pieces. I share the anxiety and worry that millions of women around our country feel. I’m worried about the future of our country because all I can think about is “What’s next?” Women will have to go to such extreme lengths to do as they please with their bodies, and for what? This country promises “freedom and justice,” but where is our “freedom and justice,” when there are laws within our nation that restrict what we can do with our bodies? It seems as though a woman’s life isn’t as valuable as an embryo or fetus. When will people realize that we are human beings whose existence extends beyond the role of being a mother?

“Why should it be acceptable for others to believe that it is OK for us not to have a say or a choice in what we do with our bodies?”

This will have an impact on women who live in poverty, as well as underage girls, undocumented women who risk deportation and women who have been raped. Even pregnant women who experience nonviable pregnancies and miscarriages will not be able to access or receive the essential medical care they need. Due to their state legislators, these women are among those who “have no options.’’

After signing such a bill on June 24, Gov. Gavin Newsom released a statement that said, ‘’We know that states like Missouri are already targeting women seeking abortions in states like California where abortion remains legal.’’ Assembly Bill 1666 by Assemblymember Rebecca Bauer-Kahan, D-Orinda, seeks to protect those in California from civil liability “for providing, aiding, or receiving abortion care in the state.” Although it is wonderful that states are taking action to protect women who travel to them from the legal repercussions of getting an abortion,

Several states are now trying to ban all or most abortions while others want to restrict them after 12 weeks of pregnancy. Some of these government-imposed limitations even prevent individuals from accessing or purchasing abortion pills in their state and having them mailed from other states as well. Despite how horrifying this is, some states are taking action to protect women’s constitutional right to abortions. States like California are making it easier for people to travel to get an abortion, by providing legal protection to those who don’t have access in their state.

are accountable for all the women in this country who will die as a result of their decision.

Republicans who use their religious beliefs to justify being pro-life and against abortions.

What is there to be optimistic about or look forward to when I live in a country where our highest court stripped every woman in it of their constitutional right to an abortion?

The five judges — Samuel Alito, Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas — who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, which in 1973 conferred the constitutional right to have an abortion, are accountable for all the women in this country who will die as a result of their decision. Since their Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling in June, states have been free to implement anti-abortion-related laws and any restrictions against abortion. This will have a significant impact on the lives of numerous women who live in states controlled by Republicans who use their religious beliefs to justify being pro-life and against abortions.

This will have an impact on women who live in poverty, as well as underage girls, undocumented women who risk deportation and women who have been raped. Even pregnant women who experience nonviable pregnancies and miscarriages will not be able to access or receive the essential medical care they need.

how can this be an effective answer when it only benefits a small percentage of women?

‘’Middle-income and wealthier women will always find a way, whether it’s traveling to another state or even another country.’’ She believes this will directly impact ‘’mostly poor women who have no other options,’’ and I wholeheartedly agree.

it only benefits those with resources and ignores many other women who aren’t fortunate enough and lack the financial means to travel for an abortion.

Being a 17-year-old woman, I am constantly told to “look forward” to my future or to “be optimistic about what is yet to come,” but how can I do either since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade? What is there to be optimistic about or look forward to when I live in a country where our highest court stripped every woman in it of their constitutional right to an abortion?
