, a ruling that profoundly impacted reproductive health care in our nation and took away a constitutional right from the American people., we have witnessed the devastating impacts. Many women, especially those in states with stringent abortion restrictions, have found themselves navigating care deserts, forced to travel great distances to receive essential services. These barriers disproportionately affect marginalized communities, exacerbating existing health disparities.

At the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, we have redoubled our efforts to protect access to care. We have reinforced our support for Title X family planning clinics. We have enforced the right of patients to receive emergency care and made it easier to file complaints if they are denied. And, we worked tirelessly to ensure that birth control remains accessible under the Affordable Care Act.
