Women’s reproductive health is on the line. We are defending our rights to abortion and birth control, and advancing policies that support pregnant people and parents.
Reproductive rights at risk with new Supreme Court
The Reproductive Health Act protects New Yorkers’ rights
The replacement of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg with ultra-conservative Amy Coney Barrett puts Americans’ reproductive rights in great peril. Roe v. Wade is at risk of being overturned, and that means women in 24 states and three territories would likely be prohibited from having an abortion. Fortunately, New York is one of seven states with laws already on the books to protect abortion access.
The Reproductive Health Act ensures women in New York will have access to abortion regardless of what happens to Roe v. Wade. We are proud to have fought for this legislation — access to reproductive healthcare is an essential pillar of the comprehensive healthcare we deserve. And we’ll continue to work to keep New York State a beacon for meeting women’s reproductive healthcare needs with compassion and urgency. Learn more about the Reproductive Health Act.
Sex-Ed
Sex-ed can be a powerful tool to teach students not only about sex, but also healthy relationship skills and decision making. Did you know sex-ed is not a requirement in New York public schools?
Contraceptive Coverage Act
Know your rights. The Contraceptive Coverage Act makes sure that you are able to access your preferred method of birth control without a copay.
