Hello!

This is Dakota with the ACLUNM and I wanted to reach out and let you know
what’s going on with reproductive rights in New Mexico, upcoming events and
any more information that may be useful!



What’s going on in New Mexico?

As you know on June 24th the Supreme Court decided to overturn Roe v. Wade
stripping away abortion rights from millions of Americans. While we are not
surprised by this decision, it does mean we have to work harder than ever
to ensure abortion access is a reality for all New Mexicans. We’re not
backing down in this moment and we hope that we can rely on your support
and activism now more than ever!



In New Mexico your right to abortion is safe and we will fight to keep it
that way. Please join our upcoming events to learn more about what we are
doing to help protect your right to abortion in New Mexico.



Upcoming Events:

Join us at *noon on July 12 for a virtual town hall* to discuss the recent
ruling in the Supreme Court case *Dobbs v. Jackson Whole Women's Health*.

Our reproductive rights team including Reproductive Rights Attorney Elinor
Rushforth will discuss the decision, what it means, and what's comes next

have for the team in the RSVP form. *We will only consider questions
submitted by July 11th at 1 p.m.*

Join us on *July 18th  from 5:30-7:30pm at Rio Bravo Brewing Company* for a
discussion about abortion in New Mexico in a post- Roe world in
Collaboration with Southwest Women’s Law Center and Planned Parenthood of
the Rocky Mountains.

            This event will have a panel of experts that will break down
the U.S Supreme Court’s decision and what it means for the future of New
Mexico Pregnant people. We will also discuss the dangers of Crisis
