Will Abortion Rights Energize the Latino Vote?
Two years ago, the Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to an abortion, creating a cascade of harmful abortion bans and restrictions. But from Colorado to Florida, Latinas are fighting back for their bodily autonomy and a chance to reframe abortion as a human rights issue.
In this episode, we speak with three Latinas on the front lines of reproductive justice: Lourdes Rivera, President of Pregnancy Justice, Stephanie Loraine Pi\xf1eiro, Executive Director at the Florida Access Network, and Am\xe9rica Ram\xedrez, Program Manager at the Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights. Together, they help us understand the increasing criminalization of pregnant people\u2014especially women of color\u2014 and how all of these restrictions are impacting how we vote.
