It’s been two weeks since the US supreme court overturned Roe v. Wade and people all over the country have been trying to figure out how to respond to it. In Virginia abortions are still legal during the first and second trimesters. After about seven months, Virginia doctors can perform abortions only if the life of the pregnant person is threatened. But that may well change. Governor Glenn Youngkin responded to the decision by calling on his fellow Republican legislators to push for restrictions on abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. Here in Charlottesville a number of organizations are working to educate people about the Supreme Court Decision and its local impact on reproductive healthcare. If you have questions we encourage you to look up the Blue Ridge Abortion Fund, Planned Parenthood Charlottesville, Repro Rising Virginia, UVA survivors, Period at UVA or talk to a medical care provider. We’ll have more local coverage as things unfold both here and on our sister podcast, Bold Dominion. Today though, we’re gonna focus on the decision itself. We’re bringing you a teach-in by UVA Law Professor Ann Coughlin and Professor Bonnie Gordon.
