Top companies respond to ruling overturning Roe v Wade

The US Supreme Court has reversed Roe v Wade, a landmark case that gave women the constitutional right to an abortion. It’s easy to shy away from this discussion and label it a ‘political’ issue, but in a world where companies are ramping up their corporate activism, this decision has seen many of the companies we invest in make statements, or take action.

If you have the means, we have included some links in the show notes to donate.

Planned Parenthood - their mission is “to ensure all people have access to the care and resources they need to make informed decisions about their bodies, their lives, and their futures.” This includes making sure that abortions are safe and legal for anyone that needs this medical procedure.

The Centre for Reproductive Rights is a human rights organisation that works across the globe to make sure reproductive rights are enshrined in laws. Its knowledge of constitutional, international, and human rights law is used to impact a place’s legal policies.
