Women born before abortion was legalized are now organizing against a possible overturn of Roe

Baby boomer women don’t want their daughters and granddaughters to lose abortion access. Now they’re organizing to codify abortion into law in the likely event the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade.

Complacency would lead to this... and it has.

I have a 60 y/o "brother" because of what today would be a statutory rape of my 14 y/o sister. We moved across the country so she could have a normal life and my parents raised him as their own where no-one knew the truth.

My family never recovered financially, but we took care of them.
