蘑菇视频 Response to Supreme Court 鈥淟eaked Draft鈥�
Indicating Intent to Overturn Roe v. Wade听
As physicians in training, advocates, and supporters of reproductive rights and justice, 蘑菇视频 is deeply concerned, though not surprised, by the draft Supreme Court decision on abortion rights that was leaked late Monday night. Those in the community who provide abortion care, assist patients, raise funds for access to care, and defend our legal rights to abortion have been preparing for this decision for some time. That preparation does not make the reality any less troubling.听
The makes clear our concerns/fears are not unfounded. Over the last many years a group of right-wing congress members, and their extremist anti-choice backers, have manipulated our system to pack the Supreme Court with judges who, for the first time in our history, are ready to take a hard-fought-for right away from over half of the people in our country.听 If this document is reflective of the Court’s coming decision and Roe is indeed overturned .
蘑菇视频 affirms reproductive health services are essential to comprehensive health care and we support full access to the entire range of reproductive health services, including abortion care. We believe legal, safe, voluntary abortions should be available to all who need them regardless of how much money they earn or what state they live in.听
It鈥檚 time to get politics out of the exam room!
We must:

- Ensure our medical schools provide abortion training opportunities.
- Eliminate the stigma that plagues abortion providers and those who seek their care.
- Talk about abortion as a normal part of healthcare – because it is!
