Senator Elizabeth Warren quote regarding the 2 year anniversary of the Dobbs decision

Two years after the landmark Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade, the landscape of reproductive rights in the United States has drastically changed. The ruling has led to significant restrictions on abortion access, with 21 states now imposing bans or severe limitations on abortions earlier in pregnancy than the standards set by Roe. This shift has sparked intense debate and concern over the future of reproductive healthcare.

In an interview with journalist Martha Raddatz on ABC “This Week”, Senator Elizabeth Warren emphasized the critical need for access to abortion, contraception, and IVF, and outlined the Democratic Party's commitment to restoring these rights if they gain control of the House, Senate, and White House. Warren warned of the severe consequences if Donald Trump and extremist Republicans regain power, highlighting their plans to restrict reproductive rights nationwide.

“We need three things. We need access to abortion. We need access to contraception, and we need access to IVF.

The Republicans have blocked all three. They have laid out their plan to say they're not going to permit women to have those three, and have access to them.

The Democrats are fully on board. If we have the trifecta, the House, the Senate, and the White House, then we are going to make Roe versus Wade law of the land again. And with Joe Biden in the presidency rather than Donald Trump, we will have as much protection for women as humanly possible.

Understand this — I want to say this as clearly as I can — if Donald Trump is elected to the presidency, he and the extremist Republicans are coming after abortion, contraception, and IVF in every single state in this country. Not just the red states. Not just the purple states. Every state in this country. They've laid out their blueprint, and they're coming for everyone.”
