The quote reads, in a typewriter-inspired typeface: βWhen you draw a line [to criminalize pregnancy outcomes], it's going to be policed. And that's what we're doing, and we're seeing the consequences of that. And to be clear, this is not something that started when Roe was overturned. This has been going on for decades and decades and decades.β The quote is attributed to Amy Littlefield, abortion access correspondent for the Nation and author of the new book Killers of Roe: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Abortion Rights.
Quote graphic featuring gold, yellow, and dark purple paper scrapbook elements in the background, as well as a sunflower, ladybug, and sparrow. The quote reads, in a typewriter-inspired typeface: βI really wanted to spend time in a clinic and find out what happens in a later-abortion and what are the steps involved, who are the people who are seeking these procedures, because the reality felt so separate from the political debate.β The quote is attributed to Amy Littlefield, abortion access correspondent for the Nation and author of the new book Killers of Roe: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Abortion Rights.
Quote graphic featuring gold, yellow, and dark purple paper scrapbook elements in the background, as well as a sunflower, ladybug, and sparrow. The quote reads, in a typewriter-inspired typeface: βBoth at the sort of national or political level or in articles like this, but also just in small rooms over small tables, I think people telling each other about their experiences with abortion care later in pregnancy is huge.β The quote is attributed to Garin Marschall, co-founder of Patient Forward.
Quote graphic featuring gold, yellow, and dark purple paper scrapbook elements in the background, as well as a sunflower, ladybug, and sparrow. The quote reads, in a typewriter-inspired typeface: βPeople are being criminalized for their pregnancy outcomes, and that was happening before the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe, and it's happening now. Pregnancy Justice reported a record 210 prosecutions for conduct associated with pregnancy loss or birth in the year after the Dobbs decision, and that most of those cases happened in Alabama, Oklahoma, or South Carolina, where courts have expansively interpreted the personhood of viable fetuses.β The quote is attributed to Garin Marschall, co-founder of Patient Forward.
