计划生育行动基金会(Planned Parenthood Action Fund)正在发起一个六位数的广告活动,呼吁选民对唐纳德·特朗普总统采取行动,并在预期最高法院将在堕胎案中听取口头辩论的同一天,选择共和党议员的反堕胎措施。维权人士说,这可能“赋予Roe v。Wade的保护”的保护”,这是1973年具有里程碑意义的裁决,其中规定了妇女的堕胎权,“毫无意义”。
的情况下,六月医疗服务诉俄,试图挑战在美国路易斯安那州的堕胎限制,需要谁执行过程的医生有在哪里堕胎进行设施的30英里范围内医院“主动承认特权。
根据计划生育规定的医学上的规定,在没有承认特权的情况下流产的医生可能会面临监禁或重罚,而在他们工作的诊所可以看到吊销执照。
劳森说:“ 此案的影响是,罗伊可能会变得毫无意义。” “这可能使路易斯安那州只有一名堕胎提供者。”在路易斯安那州,计划生育行动基金会组织和参与活动的副总裁詹妮·劳森告诉《新闻周刊》,这可以有效地使全州许多人无法获得堕胎护理,从而将手术程序减少到只有一家诊所。
她说,与此同时,如果最高法院允许法律通过,其他试图禁止堕胎的州也可能很快效仿。
劳森说:“堕胎访问基本上是由线程挂起的,这种情况确实可以解决问题。” “这为各州在全国范围内有效禁止堕胎铺平了道路,这将在罗伊号上消失……这实际上将是末日的开始。”
最高法院举行听证会之际,全国各地各州仍在继续推行反堕胎立法,希望法院在推翻Roe诉Wade案后,现在拥有五席保守派多数席位的法官在2018年任命布雷特·卡瓦诺夫大法官后将继续这样做。
没有罗伊(Roe),寻求颁布对堕胎施加严格限制或完全禁止堕胎的法律的州将不再有权获得阻碍。
这就是为什么计划生育行动基金在周三发起了一项运动,呼吁选民采取行动,使唐纳德·特朗普总统无法上任,并要求共和党立法者将卡瓦诺推向最高法院,并支持反堕胎立法。
这些数字广告试图“召集”特朗普,北卡罗来纳州参议员Thom Tillis和缅因州参议员Susan Collins,以表彰他们“为保护Roe v。Wade受到前所未有的威胁的世界做出了贡献”。计划生育在广告系列发布前与《新闻周刊》分享的一份声明中说。
这些广告凸显了特朗普如何“发誓要看到罗伊诉韦德案被推翻”,以及柯林斯如何投票确认卡瓦诺夫,以及提利斯和其他议员如何敦促最高法院重新考虑罗伊。
一条针对特朗普的广告呼吁选民“反对这场斗争”,以“退缩获得安全合法堕胎的机会”。
劳森说,针对蒂利斯和柯林斯的广告将于周三在北卡罗来纳州和缅因州推出,而针对特朗普的广告则将在战场州推出。
她说:“我们希望支持计划生育的妇女,支持安全和合法堕胎的妇女将了解当选官员的职位,并了解其决定如何影响生活。”
The case, June Medical Services v. Russo, seeks to challenge an abortion restriction in Louisiana that requires physicians who perform the procedure to have "active admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of the facility where the abortion is carried out.
Under the rule, which Planned Parenthood has branded medically unnecessary, doctors who perform an abortion without having admitting privileges could face imprisonment or heavy fines, while the clinics they work at could see their licenses revoked.
"The impact of this case is that Roe could be rendered essentially meaningless," Lawson said. "It could leave Louisiana with only one abortion provider."In Louisiana,Jenny Lawson, vice president of organizing and engagement campaigns, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, told Newsweek it could effectively render abortion care inaccessible for many across the state, cutting access to the procedure down to just one clinic.
Meanwhile, if the Supreme Court allows the law to stand, other states seeking to bar abortion access could quickly follow suit, she said.
"Abortion access is hanging by a thread, essentially, and this case could really snap it," Lawson said. "It paves the way for states to effectively ban abortion across the nation and it will chip away at Roe...It'll be the beginning of the end, really."
The Supreme Court hearing comes as states across the country continue to introduce anti-abortion legislation in the hopes that the court, which now holds a five-justice conservative majority following the appointment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018, will overturn Roe v. Wade.
Without Roe, states seeking to enact laws imposing strict limitations on abortion, or barring it altogether, would no longer have the right to access standing in their way.
That is why, on Wednesday, Planned Parenthood Action Fund is launching a campaign calling on voters to take action to unseat President Donald Trump and hold Republican lawmakers who pushed Kavanaugh through to the Supreme Court and who have backed anti-abortion legislation, to account.
The digital ads seek to "call out" Trump, Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, specifically, for "contributing to a world where the protections of Roe v. Wade are at risk like never before," Planned Parenthood said in a statement shared with Newsweek ahead of the ad campaign's launch.
The ads highlight how Trump "vowed to see Roe v. Wade overturned," as well as how Collins voted to confirm Kavanaugh and how Tillis and other lawmakers urged the Supreme Court to reconsider Roe.
One ad taking aim at Trump calls on voters to "join the fight" against the effort to "roll back access to safe, legal abortion."
The ads targeting Tillis and Collins will roll out on Wednesday in North Carolina and Maine, while those taking aim at Trump will be rolled out in battleground states, Lawson said.
"We are hoping that women who support Planned Parenthood, women who support access to safe and legal abortion, will know the positions of their elected officials and understand how their decisions impact their lives," she said.
