The meeting will mark the fourth time his task force on reproductive health care access has come together since the landmark abortion ruling was overturned.
President Joe Biden will convene key members of his Cabinet on Monday to discuss abortion rights on the 51st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade ruling, according to a White House official.
The president will “hear directly from physicians on the frontlines of the fallout” since the landmark decision was reversed and detail new actions his administration is taking to strengthen access to contraception and medication abortion, as well as ensuring patients can receive emergency medical care.

The Departments of Treasury, Labor and Health and Human Services will issue new guidance Monday to clarify standards and support expanded coverage of FDA-approved contraceptives at no cost under the Affordable Care Act for millions of women nationwide, according to the White House official.
The new effort will be launched by HHS to “educate all patients about their rights and to help ensure hospitals meet their obligations under federal law,” the White House official said.
The Office of Personnel Management will also offer new guidance to strengthen access to contraception for federal workers, retirees and family members, the official said.
These are great points. I’m personally really disappointed in his actions on the climate especially, we need sweeping action more than ever and the Dems keep insisting “a step in the right direction” is the best we can do…
Fucking pathetic that you’re downvoted. We’re out of time and the neolibs are still producing record amounts of oil.
Well, the propaganda is louder than any voice, it is what it is… but thanks for giving me a little hope. Too many people, even here don’t know how to do anything but pretend everything’s okay.
If you aren’t going to riot over roe v wade, you won’t riot over the climate. Hopefully whatever comes after humans is smarter than we were.
