Karmann Peters (she/her) – Minnesota Advocacy Coordinator for WWHA I’ve been a reproductive rights advocate in Minnesota for over a decade, so when the UnRestrict Minnesota coalition launched 2 ½ years ago, I was more than eager to get involved. I was blown away by the tenacity and talent that was brought to the table by each organization and member – and I continue to be every day. UnRestrict Minnesota is the largest cross-sector, … Read more

Whole Woman’s Health of McAllen is the only abortion clinic in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley and is just twenty minutes from the U.S.-Mexico border. For Veronica, it’s her calling. Veronica grew up in the Valley and never knew the clinic existed. When her sister began working at Whole Woman’s Health and told her about a job opening, she applied. That was 12 years … Read more

We are excited to share that a federal district court has permanently blocked several long-standing Indiana abortion restrictions in the comprehensive case WWHA v. Rokita. This is a huge victory for abortion rights just when Indiana and the entire country need it most!   It’s been a long, hard-fought battle. We filed the case in 2019, and the ruling comes after two separate trials were … Read more

It is one of the most extreme abortion bans this country has ever seen, and, if it gets enforced, SB 8 would ban abortions as early as six weeks of pregnancy. The … Read more

Texas is the great state that gave the U.S. its most monumental legal protections for abortion care, from Roe v. Wade to Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt. Yet lawmakers continue to abuse their power by using Texas as a laboratory for strategies that diminish individual freedoms, prevent access to professional care, and eliminate abortion rights and access. Senate Bill 8 is scheduled … Read more

We’re infuriated that — yet again — we have to go back to the courts to plead with them to protect the people of Texas from extremists who have hijacked the state legislature. Access to abortion in the state of Texas is under attack by anti-choice, mostly white, mostly male politicians who do not represent … Read more

Abortion rights are under attack. Today, the Governor of Texas signed Senate Bill 8, a harmful and extreme measure that bans abortions as early as six weeks of pregnancy – before many even know they are pregnant. This hostile law also gives private citizens enforcing authority against anyone deemed to be “helping” a pregnant person access abortion … Read more
