The Womxn Project applauds the official introduction of the Reproductive Health Care Act (RHCA), which protects the right to abortion, into the Rhode Island House of Representatives. The introduction of this critical legislation comes on the heels of Governor Gina Raimondo’s call to codify Roe vs Wade, the Supreme Court case affirming the right to abortion, during her “State of the State” address last night.
“Our governor used her address in front of the General Assembly to make it clear that she wants to see that no matter what happens at the federal level, we will protect the right to abortion in our state,” said Jocelyn Foye, Co-Director of The Womxn Project.
