Reproductive Freedom for All Statement on Trump’s Inauguration
Washington, DC — Today, Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States. Trump will take office just days before we mark the 52nd anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade, the ruling Trump is responsible for overturning that paved the way for a wave of dangerous and deadly abortion bans. Currently, 22 states have eliminated or restricted access to abortion because of abortion bans, which were made possible because Trump stacked the Supreme Court with anti-abortion justices to end Roe. Now, Trump’s administration is primed to continue decimating abortion rights and access— undermining the will of voters who delivered widespread victories for reproductive freedom in the 2024 elections.
“Today marks a recommitment and a pledge to fight every day to protect reproductive freedom as the man responsible for our nation’s abortion access crisis is sworn in as our 47th president. This is not the time to check out or sit back. It’s the time to double down, get new community members and friends involved, and continue to grow our movement. We have a clear mandate from voters to protect reproductive freedom. The American people are watching, and we have their backs.”
