After the Senate failed to codify abortion protections, congressional Democrats are turning to other political tools to highlight the issue and up the pressure on Republicans.
A woman who sought care at a hospital for an obstetric emergency was instead accused of abortion and found guilty of aggravated homicide in a country with a total ban on abortion.
The diplomats said they are “routinely denied access” to such care and have had difficulty obtaining family planning services, rape kits, emergency contraceptives and abortion pills.
About 150 demonstrators on Monday night marched to the home of Justice Samuel Alito, who authored the leaked draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade.
