This policy brief focuses on the OBBB’s impacts on women’s reproductive justice and health equity, specifically on the issues outlined in IWPR’s Promoting Access to Abortion and Maternal Health policy briefs. More than three years after the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade, millions
of women lack access to reproductive care and freedoms, and the Black maternal health crisis is worsening. The OBBB’s cuts and restrictions to health care coverage programs will further compound these challenges. In addition to rising health care costs, the new law will have devastating impacts on the landscape of reproductive justice and health equity in the United States.
