A Statement From Mayor Victoria Woodards on Supreme Court Decision to Overturn Roe v. Wade

TACOMA, Wash. -- "The leaked draft opinion I saw earlier this year suggested that a majority of the Supreme Court stood poised to overturn Roe v. Wade. Today, I am appalled to see that the Supreme Court has, in their decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, effectively done this. My unequivocal position continues to be that the right to choose is essential to health care for all women, and transgender and nonbinary people who can become pregnant, and that it is fundamental to ensuring true freedom, autonomy and equity. As such, I continue to stand united with my Council colleagues in asking Congress as well as President Joe Biden to act with haste in putting people before politics so that the right to choose is preserved for future generations."
