What comes after Roe v. Wade?

The leak of a draft opinion made clear what has been expected for some time: The U.S. Supreme Court is poised to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade abortion decision, which has stood since 1973 but has been chiseled away in states across the nation. In this webinar, we’ll help you interpret and convey the dramatically shifting landscape and to report on one of the most polarizing issues in America. Since January, more than 82 prohibitive abortion laws have been introduced in 30 states, including abortion bans at 15 weeks. Abortion by way of prescribed pills is also under attack. Meanwhile, states like California, Washington and Connecticut aim to set up “sanctuaries” for people blocked from getting care close to home, enshrine abortion protections in the state Constitution, or protect people from anti-abortion lawsuits.

Join us for a timely webinar on how states, health care providers and the public are gearing up for a post-Roe America. We’ll look at stories that go beyond the legal and political battles to report on the human impact, particularly for low-income and people of color, who are expected to be most affected. And we'll examine what the end of Roe would mean for teens and young adults, who account for more than one-third of abortions in the U.S.
