#Tomorrow the Polish Parliament will debate the ‘Stop Abortion’ bill that would establish a TOTAL BAN on abortion in #Poland and criminalize individuals that receive care. #StrajkKobiet
Poland has long had one of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe. It is one of only two EU member states that has not legalized abortion on request or broad grounds.
As attacks on #reproductiverights have intensified in the country, so too have attacks against civil society organizations and women human rights defenders.
We call on the Parliament to reject this draconian bill and refrain from further endangering women’s lives. We remain in solidarity with women’s rights defenders in Poland! @strajkkobiet @federapl #StrajkKobiet #PolandWarOnWomen

#VICTORY: More than a decade after our client, Manuela, was unjustly sentenced to 30 years in prison for a crime she did not commit, she has justice. #ManuelaJusticiaYEsperanza
The Inter-American Court of Human Rights just announced a ruling in our case Manuela v. El Salvador, condemning the Salvadoran State for the arbitrary criminalization of our client Manuela, who attempted to access reproductive health services during an obstetric emergency.
In its ruling, the Court also deemed the country responsible for Manuela’s death while she was still a prisoner of the state from untreated Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Today we join her family in remembering Manuela and celebrating this long-awaited victory.

Did you know your constitutional right to an abortion is on the U.S. Supreme Court docket?

RT if you believe #AbortionIsEssential
TOMORROW the Court will consider Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, a case dealing with Mississippi's abortion ban that DIRECTLY challenges #RoevWade.

That’s right, the state of Mississippi is asking the Court to take away your constitutional right to abortion.
If Roe is overturned, *half* the states in the country are poised to ban abortion. The harm and chaos experienced by folks in Mississippi and nearby states like Texas will spread across the South and Midwest.

🚨 #SCOTUS CASE UPDATE: We just filed our opening brief in advance of Monday’s arguments when the U.S. Supreme Court will hear both our case and the DOJ case challenging Texas’s unconstitutional abortion ban, #SB8.
#BansOffOurBodies #AbortionIsEssential
This radical ban has been in effect for nearly two months, during which most Texans have been denied access to abortion care. On Monday we will represent abortion providers before the Supreme Court in our ongoing fight to restore abortion access in Texas.
#BansOffOurBodies
“States cannot nullify rights guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution. Today the issue is abortion rights, tomorrow it could be free speech, the right to marry, the right to vote, or any other constitutional right...” —Nancy Northup, Center president and CEO

🚨CASE UPDATE: The Oklahoma State Supreme Court blocked three extreme abortion restrictions that were scheduled to take effect on November 1 and threatened to devastate abortion access in the state.

Today’s ruling means the laws will remain blocked while the case continues.
❗If these restrictions were allowed to go into effect over half of Oklahoma’s abortion providers would be forced to stop providing abortions.

AND people would be required to make two separate trips to a health care provider at least 72-hours apart to access medication abortion.
"The Oklahoma Supreme Court recognized that these laws would cause irreparable harm to Oklahomans...” —Nancy Northup, Center CEO

🚨 #BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court will hear our case challenging Texas’s abortion ban #SB8 & the Department of Justice's case challenging the same law in JUST TEN DAYS.

#SCOTUS has declined to rule on the request to block the unconstitutional ban until after oral arguments.
“The Supreme Court’s action today brings us one step closer to the restoration of Texans’ constitutional rights and an end to the havoc and heartache of this ban...” —Nancy Northup, Center president and CEO
“We are enormously disappointed that the Court has left the law in effect for now, forcing those with means to leave the state to access constitutionally protected abortion services and leaving others with no options at all...” —Nancy Northup, Center president and CEO
