One year post-Roe: California abortion advocates forge ahead to protect access

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Even with the passage of Prop 1, Domingo and other anti-abortion advocates still believe more can be done to convince Californians that other options are available.
48% : "It's really hard to talk about these things as though they exist only within the confines of legal strategizing and Supreme Court opinions when it's reflecting very viscerally on the bodies of young people all across the country." Saturday marked one year since the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, allowing states across the country to enact legislation restricting access to abortion or outlawing it altogether.
47% : Kathleen Domingo, executive director of the California Catholic Conference, says the organization is working to support alternatives to abortion, including legislation for "adequate paid family leave" and finding ways to prioritize housing for pregnant women.
34% : "We're really seeing a domino effect," Hollinger said, "where even women that are in states where abortion is still legal, they may not be able to get into their local providers because there's such a demand from neighboring states where it has been banned."
33% : Although abortion is fully banned in 14 states, the patients have come from 32 different states.
