Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization decision on their ongoing work to protect abortion access and reproductive health care.\n\nIn June, the Supreme Court issued Dobbs, overturning Roe v. Wade andupending five decades of precedent protecting the constitutional right to an abortion. During the roundtable, Rep. Stansbury heard from health care providers and community organizations about how the decision has strained resources for New Mexicans seeking reproductive health care and the need for federal protections and funding for holistic abortion care nationwide.\n\n\u201cI\u2019m proud to stand with local advocates and organizations fighting for reproductive health care and abortion access,\u201d said Rep. Stansbury. \u201cBecause of the Supreme Court\u2019s decision to undermine decades of legal precedent and overturn the protections afforded by Roe v. Wade, the lives and well-being of millions of women and pregnant people across our nation hang in the balance. Every day, I will continue to work alongside our communities and my colleagues in Congress to protect access to safe and legal abortion for New Mexicans \u2013 it\u2019s time for the Senate to do their part to protect the health and wellbeing of our communities by passing the Women\u2019s Health Protection Act to codify abortion rights into law.\u201d\n\nThe organizations at the roundtable included Indigenous Women Rising, Southwest Women\u2019s Options, the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, Tewa Women United, and the Mariposa Fund.\n\nIn 2021, Rep. Stansbury was part of the majority in the New Mexico State Legislature that voted to pass legislation that repealed the state\u2019s antiquated abortion ban from the books, protecting access to reproductive health care for New Mexicans and communities across the region.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-06-28T00:50:00Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://stansbury.house.gov/media/press-releases/congresswoman-stansbury-hosts-reproductive-rights-roundtable"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8098678663372993, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
