Reproductive Rights

Access to safe, affordable reproductive health care should be a fundamental right for everyone.

Reproductive freedom is a fundamental human right. Following the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade in 1973, abortion was protected as a federal constitutional right for nearly 50 years. But after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, a flood of states and private organizations have sought to interfere with access to reproductive services like abortion and contraception. The threat of a possible 2025 Trump Administration and implementation of Project 2025 puts our rights to privacy, contraception, abortion, IVF, and other critical reproductive care at risk.

Attorneys general play a vital role in ensuring we all have access to reproductive services. Attorneys general have advocated for reproductive rights, sued the federal government for unlawful restrictions on reproductive services, weighed in against other states’ efforts to curtail access to medication abortion, and advanced legislation to protect reproductive freedom and privacy.
