The violence inherent in abortion bans was on full display at the US Supreme Court yesterday.

And this situation is not some hypothetical. All around the country, in states with varying degrees of restrictions, abortion denials are inflicting extreme harm on pregnant people.

A reminder for those following today's Supreme Court arguments over Idaho's extreme abortion ban:

Nearly a quarter of the state's OBGYNs have fled the state since the repeal of Roe v. Wade.

The health and human rights of everyone in Idaho is at stake. opb.org/article/2024/0…

Idaho has lost a quarter of its OB-GYNs, 55% of its maternal fetal health specialists and 3 maternity wards have shut down.

This is what will likely happen to other states with narrow exceptions in abortion bans if SCOTUS rules in favor of Idaho. huffpost.com/entry/idaho-ab…

Everyone is right to call out the extremism of Governor Noem and South Dakota's abortion ban.

But we should be clear that exceptions for rape written in other states' laws can't protect the health of pregnant people. Only universal abortion access can. thehill.com/homenews/campa…

WEDNESDAY: The US Supreme Court will hear a case considering Idaho's near-total abortion ban. In our amicus brief, we argue the ban:

1) jeopardizes the life and health of pregnant people and restricts their access to essential reproductive care

2) violates international law

Impunity for systemic sexual and gender-based violence has been a hallmark of the military's hold on power for decades.
