MUST-READ: The fall of Roe didn't happen overnight. It's the result of a decades-long effort by extreme anti-abortion lawmakers to peddle misinformation and pass laws to chip away our rights.

HERE is how Republican lawmakers & judges have been mobilizing for a post-Roe America⬇️

Just hours after SCOTUS overturned Roe, ARKANSAS Attorney General Leslie Rutledge confirmed that abortion is now immediately illegal. AR is one of 13 states with “trigger bans” which will prohibit abortion within 30 days of Roe's fall—several of which took effect the day of.

In five states without trigger laws—Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, Ohio, and South Carolina—courts have blocked or struck down recent laws that banned most or all abortions. Without Roe, those laws will probably take effect within weeks or months. (WaPo)

FLORIDA has been preparing for a 15-week abortion ban to go into effect today, July 1, after Gov. DeSantis signed the ban into law in April—widely considered to model the Mississippi law which was considered by SCOTUS in Dobbs v JWHO.

FLORIDA's Governor DeSantis also vetoed $2 million meant to help low-income people access long-acting birth control—which had been sent to his desk with bipartisan support.
