A backlash against abortion bans is energizing the middle ground in America, potentially aiding President Joe Biden in the upcoming November elections. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has sparked a dynamic new political movement, with millions of Americans opposing government interference in private decisions. A third of American women aged 15-49 now live in states where abortion is either illegal or heavily restricted, leading to a grassroots revolt. Democrats are betting on abortion-related ballot measures to help Biden fend off former President Donald Trump in key battleground states, although this strategy appears uncertain in Arizona. The pro-choice movement is participatory and local, reflecting a democratic response to what many see as a central failure of politics. Texans are counting on Congress to restore abortion rights across the country, especially given the state's high maternal mortality rate. MAGA Republicans nationwide want to ban abortion, even in cases of rape or incest.
This is so inhumane! MAGA Republicans nationwide want to ban abortion, even if a person’s life is at risk, regardless of rape or incest. We can’t stand for this! It’s time that people, not politicians, control their reproductive decisions. https://t.co/FnRV8oZ92i
This is an unacceptable and dangerous decision, especially because our state already has an alarmingly high maternal mortality rate. For their health, safety, and future: Texans are counting on Congress to restore abortion rights across the country NOW. https://t.co/W2wwtDHl3H

No woman should ever have to risk her life to seek medical care. We must fight against these draconian laws and protect reproductive rights. https://t.co/6Op4XPO0K0
For most of the world, the election is what matters most: billions are bracing for another four years of Trumpian fireworks. But for Americans, it should be heartening that the pro-choice movement is tackling a central failure of politics https://t.co/MXwe9nMEH5 👇
America’s new abortion-rights movement shows a different side of politics. It comprises of people giving up their time to try to persuade people of an idea they hold deeply. It is participatory and local. It is how democracy is supposed to work https://t.co/0mgEGyU88f 👇
