Sen.
Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) is again pushing federal legislation that would guarantee equal access to abortion services throughout the United States.
This renewed effort comes in the wake of the Trump-altered U.S. Supreme Court agreeing to take up Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban a case that presents a direct challenge to legal abortions that are protected under
Roe v. Wade. Baldwin joined colleagues in the Senate and House in re-introducing the bicameral Women’s Health Protection Act.
This week’s news out of the Supreme Court was an urgent call to action: reproductive rights are under direct, imminent attack,” she said in a release.

As more researchers of the January 6 Capitol siege forecast months if not years of increased domestic terrorism, it is likely that some of it will be aimed at reproductive health care workers. Abortion opponents not only were part of the destructive melee at the Capitol they also have modeled radicalization techniques used in building insurrectionary fever by successfully deploying incendiary lies and conspiracy theories.
