ABORTION IS STILL LEGAL IN MINNESOTA

BREAKING NEWS: Medication abortion is safe, legal & available at WE Health Clinic . We are following all applicable laws and Minnesota is one of the states which falls under the Washington federal case ruling that allows Mifepristone.

On June 24th, 2022 the U.S. Supreme Court released their decision overturning Roe v. Wade. We are saddened and angry that a federally protected right for almost 50 years has been taken away. Individuals today will have less rights related to abortion than their parents and grandparents had. This decision is wrong and will harm millions of people. Abortion is a private decision between an individual and their healthcare provider. The government should not regulate healthcare decisions. Abortion is a human right.

According to the Pew Research Center, 61% of U.S. adults say that abortion should be legal all or most of the time. We are the pro-choice, pro-abortion majority.

This decision will fall hardest on people who already face discriminatory obstacles to health particularly Black, Indigenous, and other people of color, people with disabilities, people in rural areas, young people, undocumented people, those having difficulty making ends meet, and those who will need to travel to different states to access abortion care.

Abortion is still legal in Minnesota. WE Health Clinic is open and is committed to providing abortion care. If you have an appointment with us for an abortion or need to make one, know that we are still providing this essential service now and into the future.
