Disappearing Options: Tracking the Story on Reproductive Health Care

The news cycle for U.S. reproductive health care has been relentless this year. Louisiana passed a bill to criminalize possession of abortion pills without a prescription. An Alabama Supreme Court ruling that embryos created through IVF are legally children prompted clinics there to halt services, raising legal and political questions that continue to reverberate, despite a subsequent state law intended to protect IVF procedures. In a case recently dismissed by the U.S. Supreme Court, Idaho sought to block access to emergency abortions when a woman's health is at risk, even as SCOTUS declined to restrict abortion-pill access in another case. And birth control, experts warn, could be the next target in a country that has sharply diverged from other industrialized nations on reproductive care rights. Many of these policy changes have outsized impacts on people of color and low-income Americans. Amid this mounting uncertainty, what do journalists need to know to smartly inform their audience? Join our expert panel in this webinar to discuss the latest developments, analyze their impacts on care, and uncover timely stories waiting to be told.
