According to a press release from AG James:
“If the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade in the
coming weeks, the fundamental federal right to abortion will be eliminated,
curtailing the ability of people across the United States to access safe and
legal abortions. The Reproductive Freedom and Equity Program would support
access to abortion for low-income New Yorkers and would also provide financial
support for the influx of people coming to New York from other states that ban
abortion.”
