March 4, 2020 - the Supreme Court heard June Medical Services v. Russo a case challenging a set of restrictions in Louisiana that not only interfere with access to abortion, but if enforced would close down clinics throughout the state.
The Womxn Project pulled together a group of 50 students and activists to travel to Washington, DC to be part of a demonstration aimed at urging the Court to stop the sham and to strike down laws that have nothing to do with health and safety and everything to do with making abortion care harder to get. They also met with members of our congressional delegation to urge their support of the Women's Health Protection Act, federal legislation that would prohibit the kind of medically unnecessary and intrusive laws that are up for debate in this case.
Board member Faye Zuckerman represented the League in Washington, DC.
