Roe v. Wade decision can disproportionately impact Black, Latinx women, data shows

The Supreme Court ruled to overturn Roe v. Wade and the fundamental right to abortion that has been the law for almost 50 years.

Jimenez is concerned that as California positions itself to become a sanctuary state for abortion, an influx of abortion seekers from out of state could strain resources. "When I hear that there's going to be such a potential large increase of folks coming into California, I really think about provider shortages and wait times for people who live in California and people who are coming from out of state," said Jimenez

Traveling to California or other states that allow the procedure may not be an option for many Black, and Latinx pregnant people, says Marcela Howell of the National Black women's Reproductive Justice Agenda, because it's just too expensive. "If they can't get enough money to travel, to get childcare for the children, they already have to take off work if they're low-income and working an hourly job, they lose a day of work. What that will do is it will make those barriers even bigger," said Howell.

You know it's bullshit when they say Latinx.

That means latina women have to stop being Catholic since their religion teaches to have lot's of babies. They aren't going to do that because how will you get welfare and free housing and medical if you don't have the babies to qualify for it

While I am still trying to diagram how Latinx women risk unwanted pregnancies, I suppose the good news is that self-identifying Latina women are unaffected.

Well, America can't do anything that would disproportionately benefit those women, That would be un-American.

Doesn't everything America does, do that?

shocking

Latinx? Stop using this stupid term.

Doesn’t everything?

… enough of the fear mongering already

omg. uses the racial slur ..

Fact: Latinas and Latinos hate 'latinx' But you still use it. Racists.
