The League of Women Voters filed an amicus in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
Updated on June 28, from the LWVNC Board: Regarding Friday's 6-3 Supreme Court decision of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization to overturn the constitutional right to reproductive health care, the LWVNC board is outraged. We are saddened but not surprised.
We stand by what we said in the N&O last month and what LWVUS conveyed in a statement on Friday. It's time to recommit ourselves to this fight. Remember how you feel now in the coming weeks and months as we work to turn out voters in the midterms. Elections have very real consequences.
