The Supreme Court struck down a restrictive Louisiana law requiring abortion providers to have admitting privileges at local hospitals that would have resulted in the shuttering of all but one abortion clinic in the entire state. “Today’s decision will save women’s lives,” said Sonia Ossorio, President of NOW - New York.

NOW commends the latest U.S. Supreme Court ruling, which recognizes that all Americans, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, are protected by Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

As if COVID-19 was not already decimating our communities across the United States, we are confronted by the continued dehumanization of Black lives by police officers and vigilantes who take the lives of Black people without remorse and with virtual impunity. This disturbing reality is something that we must all face head on and seek to change. Learn how to educate yourself and others, take action, and get out the vote.
