Women’s Health Protection Act

Pro-choice lawmakers are advocating for a proposed federal bill that would protect abortion rights nationwide.

The Women’s Health Protection Act seeks to block state laws that limit the right of a pregnant woman to obtain an abortion.

The bill has taken on new importance after the U.S. Supreme Court recently allowed a Texas law to take effect that effectively bans abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.

I read and discussed the Women’s Health Protection Act on Primary Sources, a podcast where I examine the documents behind today’s top stories.
