“‘Across the DOJ, various offices have responsibility for enforcing – or not enforcing – federal laws that have direct bearing on reproductive and other civil rights,’ says Shaina Goodman, director for reproductive health and rights at the National Partnership for Women and Families.”

“‘The former president has been all over the map in terms of what he says about abortion access, about reproductive rights and about access to different forms of reproductive health care,’ said Jocelyn Frye, president of the National Partnership for Women & Families. ‘There is an active effort to really deny folks access to IVF and other sorts of reproductive health care. People are right to be worried.'”

“After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, an estimated 6.7 million Latinas of reproductive age now live in the 26 states that have banned or are poised to ban abortion care, according to a recent analysis from the National Partnership for Women & Families and the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice.”

“‘Warrantless law enforcement access to digital information related to reproductive health care, including location data, threatens reproductive freedom,’ Ashley Emery, senior policy analyst, reproductive health and rights at the non-profit the National Partnership for Women & Families, told 404 Media. ‘If law enforcement can bypass court approval needed to obtain sensitive data and instead use this new surveillance tool to track pregnant people and build cases against them, the implications for abortion and pregnancy criminalization are alarming. This risk is especially salient for Black women, brown women, and low-income women, who are already over-surveilled and over-policed.'”

“Sinsi Hernández-Cancio, vice president for health justice at the National Partnership for Women & Families, said abortion-rights supporters cannot afford to assume Latino voters do not support abortion rights, especially in majority-Republican Florida, which requires 60% voter support to pass a constitutional amendment.”

“‘It’s hard to overstate the significance of the Loper Bright and Relentless decision’ on reproductive and gender issues and federal policy more broadly, says Shaina Goodman, director for reproductive health and rights at the National Partnership for Women and Families. ‘It has deep and far-reaching consequences that we will see play out over the coming years.'”

“‘The specific increase in deaths attributable to congenital anomalies really makes an ironclad link between the change in the law and the terrible outcomes that they’re seeing for infants and families,’ said Nan Strauss, senior policy analyst of maternal health at the National Partnership for Women & Families, who was not involved with the research. ‘The women and families have to suffer through an excruciating later part of pregnancy, knowing that their baby is likely to die in the first weeks of life.'”

“‘There are a set of corrective measures that are really about tackling systemic biases throughout the healthcare system… It’s hard work, but it’s also essential if you really try to build something that’s workable for the future that is better than what we had before that’s really responsive to the needs of all patients, particularly those who are most vulnerable who have the least economic capacity and have access to health care,’ said Jocelyn Frye, president of the National Partnership for Women and Families.”

“Women of color and Latinas have been particularly impacted by the fall of Roe. A 2023 report by the National Partnership for Women and Families estimated that nearly 6.5 million Latinas, or 42% of all Latinas of reproductive age in the country, live in a state that either had or was likely to ban abortion.”

“‘The efforts to really impede the right to travel, really go to the heart of our Constitution and our democracy,’ Jocelyn Frye, president of the National Partnership for Women and Families, said at a Senate hearing Wednesday on the Freedom to Travel for Healthcare Act. ‘And, you know, even in a world where people disagree on a lot of things, our ability to go from state to state of our own accord is a fundamental principle.'”
