Hi everyone - Laying Down the Law is on hiatus right now, we have been working hard on Season 3, but I wanted to take a moment and join a unified response of podcasters speaking out in response to the Dobbs decision that overturned 50 years of established legal precedent in the Unites States -- with more to come. And while this is ostensibly a law and comedy podcast, there's nothing funny about this change in the law. So I'm joining independent podcasts everywhere in speaking out.
While Americans overwhelmingly support the right of an individual to make their own decisions about abortion, unfortunately, that right is no longer protected everywhere in the U.S.
The Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade on June 24th.
Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.
Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn't be the privilege of a small few.
You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations 4 abortion dot com. That’s the number 4.
If you or someone you know needs help, or if you want to get more involved, here are 5 resources.
1. Shout Your Abortion is a campaign to normalize abortion.
2. Don’t Ban Equality is a campaign for companies to take a stand against abortion restrictions.
3. Abortion dot cafe has information about where to find clinics.
4. Plan C Pills dot org provides early at-home abortion pills that you can keep in your medicine cabinet.
5. Choice dot c-r-d dot c-o has a collection of these resources and more.
We/I encourage you to speak up, take care, and spread the word.
