Phoebe Bridgers talks abortion rights in the US: “Don’t let anybody freak you out”

admin, , , ,

Phoebe Bridgers has opened up about the importance of abortion rights in a new interview. In June, the Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that legalised abortion nationwide. “The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives,” the Supreme Court wrote in a document. Due to the recent ruling, many states within the US are either set to restrict or ban the procedure altogether. Shortly after…

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has finally given an update regarding the upcoming vote on same-sex marriage.  Back in June, the US Supreme court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v.

Wade, Justice Thomas wrote that the Supreme Court should “reconsider” various landmark decisions such as the right to contraception, same-sex relationships and same-sex marriage. In response to Thomas’ harmful suggestion, Democrats and 47 Republicans in the House of Representatives voted in favour of the Respect…

It was getting an abortion after being raped as a teenager that drove transgender man Adri Perez to help set up an LGBTQ-inclusive fund in the U.S. state of Texas to support others wanting to end their pregnancies. The Supreme Court’s reversal of the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that legalised abortion in the United States has spotlighted global inequalities in access to the procedure, including for trans men, who face challenges from gendered abortion laws to economic marginalisation and discrimination. For Perez, co-founder of the Texas-based West Fund –…

Joe Biden warns Supreme Court will “go after” same-sex marriage if Roe v. Wade is overturned

admin, , , ,

President Joe Biden has warned that same-sex marriage could be at risk if the US Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade. The landmark decision is what guarantees access to abortion in the United States and has been in effect since the 1970s, with Planned Parenthood v. Casey upholding the right in 1992. However, the Court appears to be poised to overturn the decision, according to a leaked draft opinion obtained by Politico on 2 May. “We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” the document’s author, Justice Samuel A.…

Roe v. Wade: Is same-sex marriage at risk after US Supreme Court leak?

admin, , , ,

A leaked US Supreme Court opinion suggesting justices are poised to overturn abortion rights has left LGBTQ+ advocacy groups fearful that same-sex marriage could also be at risk.

LGBTQ+ advocates fear that it could open the door to legal challenges targeting gay marriage and other landmark civil rights rulings at the country’s top court, which holds a six-to-three conservative majority. Some expressed concerns that after decades of advances in civil…
