Las Vegas, NV — On Wednesday, June 24, local advocates will hold a rally marking the fourth anniversary of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade.
The event, which is being organized by #Fight4HER, a national grassroots campaign of Population Connection Action Fund, will highlight the legacy of the Dobbs decision in Nevada and share ways that attendees can get involved in the fight to expand safe, affordable, and comprehensive reproductive health care both in the US and abroad.
Battle Born Progress (BBP), Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada (PLAN), Planned Parenthood Advocates Mar Monte, and Reproductive Freedom for All Nevada are partnering with #Fight4HER to co-host this rally.
“We want to bring members of our Las Vegas community together to reflect on the day that ended equal access to abortion under the law for all Americans. Since the Dobbs decision, people from other states regularly visit Nevada, including Las Vegas, for abortion care because of total abortion bans that immediately went into effect where they live. We will be joining our local partners and attendees to remind our lawmakers that they must make protecting all reproductive health care a top priority.”
– Kyle DeVasier, Population Connection Action Fund Regional Field Organizer – Nevada
Since the Dobbs decision, 13 states have implemented total abortion bans. Another 28 states, including Nevada, have gestational limits. Only nine states and the District of Columbia have no such restrictions.
“The Dobbs decision has caused unnecessary pain and suffering to people across this country. And the Trump-Vance administration is hell-bent on making that suffering more widespread and more painful. They’re putting their own radical ideology ahead of the needs of people in the United States and around the world. In addition to trying to eliminate access to legal abortion, they’re trying to limit access to contraceptives and other essential care. We’re proud to stand with partners in Nevada to fight for health, empowerment, and rights for everyone.”
– Brian Dixon, Population Connection Action Fund Senior Vice President for Government and Political Affairs
