Gov. Gavin Newsom and Bay Area elected officials spoke out on Saturday marking the one-year anniversary of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
"Millions of people will not sit back and watch as their freedom and fundamental right to choose are stolen from them. Here in California, the right to abortion care is embedded in our constitution, and we're leading a coalition of twenty-two Governors to defend this right across our nation - putting women above extremist, minority views," Newsom said.
As part of the Reproductive Freedom Alliance, governors supporting abortion rights have vowed to work together to prevent women losing access to the procedure and other forms of reproductive health care, like contraception. "Today, one year since Dobbs v. Jackson, I remain committed to ensuring that health care decisions are made by patients, their doctors, their families, and their faith," Thompson said.
