Claim: “Today in America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban.” (Kamala Harris, 2024-01-22)
Evidence (2024-07-29): More than 1 in every 3 women in the country who are of reproductive age—ages 15 to 44—live in states that have enacted draconian abortion bans at six weeks of pregnancy or less. But for many women, a clinic appointment is not available until they are at or beyond six weeks pregnant. Women may not be able to schedule an abortion or even know they are pregnant until past the six-week mark, due to unpredictable periods; a lack of accurate, modernized sex education; and the fact that pregnancy tests are most accurate after a missed period. Additionally, accurately determining the age of a pregnancy is more complex than identifying an ovulation, fertilization, or implantation date, and medical practitioners typically initially date pregnancy to a 28-day menstrual cycle—which is not the norm for everyone—and then redate later in pregnancy. In fact, roughly 40 percent of women have their due date adjusted by nearly a week between their last menstrual period and their first ultrasound, which means that even someone using all of the information available to her to anticipate a six-week deadline may be excluded from eligibility by a six-week ban. [...] The Florida abortion ban will disproportionately affect Hispanic women given the state’s demographic makeup. For example, in FL-27 and FL-28, about 2 in 3 women of reproductive age are Hispanic, and in FL-19, nearly 1 in 4 are.

Evidence (2024-03-13): - Today, 35% (5.5 million) of women ages 15 to 49 covered by Medicaid live in states where abortion remains legal, but the program will not cover the service except for limited Hyde circumstances. Twenty-one percent live in a state where abortion is banned. [...] Medicaid is a significant source of health coverage for women who have higher rates of abortion in the U.S. including women with low incomes, and women of color. Today, Medicaid covers one in five women (20%) of reproductive age (15-49 years) living in Hyde states. In 2022, over half (51%) of women below the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) living in Hyde states were insured by Medicaid (Figure 2). This number is decreasing, though, with the unwinding of the Public Health Emergency (PHE) protections put in place in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that had allowed people to maintain their Medicaid coverage throughout the PHE. However, the program will continue to remain the main source of coverage for young women with low incomes.

Evidence (2024-03-29): Though the number of Latinas has grown in general,18 this study highlights the growth specifically of childbearing-aged Latinas compared to their white counterparts. We estimate the number of Latinas in states with abortion bans by combining state-level data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey with state-level policy data from the Guttmacher Institute. [...] Figure 1. Shares of Latina and White Women of Childbearing Age in the United States, 2019 2. Almost half of all Latinas of childbearing age live in abortion-restrictive states that threaten the reproductive rights of women. [...] Figure 2. Shares of Latina and White Women of Childbearing Age who Live in Abortion-Restrictive States, 2019 3. The population of adult Latinas in abortion-restrictive states is younger than the population of adult non-Hispanic white women in those states.

Evidence (2024-05-16): The Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision has only compounded the longstanding barriers to abortion care that disabled people face, including provider discrimination and lack of training or experience with disabled patients, guardians dictating decisions about their reproductive care, denials of care and assistance among religiously-affiliated service providers and intermediate care facilities, transportation difficulties, inaccessibility in health care facilities, and layers of economic obstacles to affording the costs of care. Now, National Partnership for Women & Families research shows that more than 3 million disabled women of reproductive age live in states that have banned or are likely to ban abortion – exacerbating the grim reality of reproductive coercion and inequities in the health care system that distinctly impact disabled people. [...] - More than 3 million disabled women of reproductive age (15-49) live in the 26 states that have banned or are likely to ban abortion since Dobbs. That accounts for more than half of all disabled women in the U.S. Restrictions on abortion care are part of a broader set of policy choices that systematically oppress disabled people, especially disabled people of color, creating a web of compounding barriers to health equity and democracy access.

Evidence (2024-07-30): - OB/GYNs and other health care providers are fleeing abortion ban states, and some medical students are refusing to train in them. [...] "At least 23 million women of reproductive age nationwide live in states with abortion bans. That’s 23 million women who won’t have access to care if they become pregnant and need to have an abortion," said Senator Cantwell in previewing the report at a press conference Tuesday. "Women … are in life threatening situations and are being denied access to care." [...] "Two years ago, the Supreme Court shook the nation when they took away the fundamental freedom to make our own reproductive health decisions, putting the lives of so many women at risk," said Senator Stabenow. "1 in 3 American women now live in a state with extreme restrictions on abortion. This report reaffirms what we already know: the Republican-led assault on our reproductive freedom is endangering women and placing an enormous strain on our health care system."

Evidence (2023-10-03): - Nearly 6.7 million Latinas – 43 percent of all Latinas ages 15-49While people of many ages can become pregnant, in this analysis we use ages 15-49 to align with the Guttmacher Institute, the World Health Organization, and others. Not all women of reproductive age have the potential to become pregnant – many of them may not be able to for medical reasons or they may not participate in sexual activities that could result in pregnancy. – live in the 26 states that have banned or are likely to ban abortion. They represent the largest group of women of color impacted by current or likely state bans. [...] - More than 3 million Latinas living in these states are economically insecure.While people across the income spectrum may have difficulty making ends meet, in this analysis we define "economically insecure" as living in a family below 200 percent of the federal poverty line. Women with low incomes are especially impacted by state bans as they are more likely to lack access to the necessary funds to travel to another state for abortion care. Furthermore, women who are denied abortion care are significantly more likely to be pushed deeper into poverty as a result. [...] The actions of certain states are especially harmful for Latinas and their families. We find that Latinas in three states – Florida, Texas, and Arizona – account for nearly three-quarters of the Latinas in ban states and nearly one-third of all Latinas of reproductive age in the nation.

Evidence (2024-03-06): Right now, 21 states ban abortion or restrict the procedure earlier in pregnancy than the standard set by Roe v. Wade—including 14 states that enforce total bans on abortion care. Maternal health care has suffered tremendously in states that have banned or restricted abortion care and made it harder to attract new OBGYNs to the field, and the Dobbs decision greatly exacerbated America’s existing maternal mortality crisis as maternal and infant death rates are higher in states that ban or restrict abortion. A report from the Gender Equity Policy Institute found that women in states with abortion bans are nearly three times more likely to die during pregnancy, childbirth or soon after giving birth.

Evidence (2024-05-23): This analysis draws from the most recent data from the UN Population Division, which tracks the number of women of reproductive age living in each country. We recognize people who do not identify as women may also need access to abortion services. [...] In overturning Roe v. Wade in 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court removed nationwide protections for abortion rights. Since then, some states have criminalized abortion while others have strengthened protections. [...] Denial of abortion care is nothing short of a true human rights violation.

Wade, 25 million women live in states with abortion bans or restrictions Politics Jun 22, 2023 8:07 PM EDT One year ago Saturday, the U.S. Supreme Court rescinded a five-decade-old right to abortion, prompting a seismic shift in debates about politics, values, freedom and fairness. Twenty-five million women of childbearing age now live in states where the law makes abortions harder to get than they were before the ruling. Decisions about the law are largely in the hands of state lawmakers and courts. Most Republican-led states have restricted abortion. Fourteen ban abortion in most cases at any point in pregnancy. Twenty Democratic-leaning states have protected access to abortion. Here’s a look at what’s changed since the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling.
Claim: “Today in America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban.” (Kamala Harris, 2024-01-22)
Evidence (2019-05-21): If Roe v. Wade is overturned, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age — more than 25 million women — would be living in states without abortion access. Banning abortion care will not stop abortion — it will stop safe, legal abortion care. And the cost will be women’s lives. We are in a state of emergency for women’s health. Barriers to reproductive care will only worsen health outcomes and exacerbate disparities and inequities. Fighting to make sure women have access to reproductive health care is more important than ever. No Abortion Bans: Not Now, Not Ever [...] Banned abortion from the time a woman is "known to be pregnant"; no exceptions for rape and incest state could investigate women for miscarriages most punitive ban signed since Roe was decided, charging doctors with a Class A felony and up to 99 years in prison highest cervical cancer mortality rate in the U.S.
Claim: “Today in America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban.” (Kamala Harris, 2024-01-22)
Evidence (2023-02-08): Our analysis, which builds on research we conducted 30 days after Roe fell, focuses on the 15 states that were enforcing either total or six-week abortion bans as of October 2. While most of these bans include very limited circumstances when an abortion may be allowed, those exceptions are designed to be difficult to navigate and are often unusable in practice. [...] - Altogether, these 15 states are home to almost 22 million women of reproductive age (aged 15–49), in addition to other people who may not identify as women but are capable of becoming pregnant and may need an abortion. That means almost one-third (29%) of the total US population of women of reproductive age are living in states where abortion is either unavailable or severely restricted. [...] An already precarious abortion access landscape is likely to continue to deteriorate. Our state legislative tracking predicts that a total of 26 states are certain or likely to ban abortion within a year of Roe being overturned. Already, several states—including Indiana, Ohio and South Carolina—had total or six-week abortion bans go into effect briefly before they were temporarily blocked in court. These bans could go into effect again as soon as the court cases are resolved. These disruptions to service provision—even when temporary—affect the ability of established providers to quickly resume abortion care. Further, rapidly changing laws may make it unclear to some patients whether they can legally seek an abortion in their state.
Claim: “Today in America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban.” (Kamala Harris, 2024-01-22)
Evidence (2023-12-18): Indeed, by the 100th day after the Dobbs decision, nearly 22 million women1 of reproductive age—almost 1 in 3 women—found themselves living in states where abortion was unavailable or severely restricted. According to the Guttmacher Institute, which tracks state-level abortion legislation, in 2022 alone, state legislators introduced 563 provisions to restrict access to abortion, and 50 of those restrictions were signed into law the same year.2 [...] Furthermore, the interplay between geography and race cannot be understated, as states with the highest proportions of Black, Hispanic, and Indigenous women—those in the South and the Midwest—are also states that have banned or are poised to ban abortion post-Dobbs.9 Women of color experience higher risk of health complications, pregnancy-related morbidity, and even death,10 something that is heightened in states where abortion is criminalized.11 For people with multiple marginalized identities, such as race, chronic health conditions, and disability, barriers to abortion are often compounded. For example, 1 in 3 adults under age 65 on Medicaid has a disability,12 and the federal Hyde restriction disproportionately keeps low-income people with disabilities from getting the abortion care they need.13 [...] As referenced above, as of publication, 14 states have near-total abortion bans during any point in pregnancy in effect: Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.19 Several other states have similar abortion bans that have been temporarily blocked by the courts,20 including Arizona,21 Indiana,22 Utah,23 and Wyoming.24

Evidence (2022-08-30): - Currently, nearly 40 million U.S. women of reproductive age (58% of the total number) live in states that have demonstrated hostility to abortion rights. - In contrast, 25.8 million women of reproductive age (almost 38% of the total) live in states that have demonstrated support for abortion rights. [...] - More than 16 million women of reproductive age (25% of the total) lived in states considered to be supportive of abortion rights and access.
Claim: “Today in America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban.” (Kamala Harris, 2024-01-22)
Evidence (2022-12-14): Abstract - Issue: In response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade, a number of states have passed, or are planning to pass, partial or complete bans on abortion. A key question is whether these restrictions will result in reduced overall access to maternal and infant care, as well as worse health outcomes, in these states. [...] - Key Findings and Conclusions: Compared to states where abortion is accessible, states that have banned, are planning to ban, or have otherwise restricted abortion have fewer maternity care providers; more maternity care "deserts"; higher rates of maternal mortality and infant death, especially among women of color; higher overall death rates for women of reproductive age; and greater racial inequities across their health care systems. [...] The 26 states with abortion bans or restrictions (Exhibit 1) had slightly more than half (55%) of U.S. births in 2020. These states differed demographically from states with abortion access, as shown in Exhibit 2, with larger proportions of births to non-Hispanic white mothers. Abortion-access states, meanwhile, had a majority of births to women of color.

Evidence (2023-06-23): One year ago, the Supreme Court eliminated a constitutional right that it had previously recognized, overturning nearly fifty years of precedent. Today, more than 23 million women of reproductive age—one in three—live in one of the 18 states with an abortion ban currently in effect. In the last year, women have been denied essential medical care to preserve their health and even save their lives. They have been turned away from emergency rooms, forced to delay care, and made to travel hundreds of miles and across state lines for needed medical care. Despite this devastating impact on women’s health, Republican elected officials continue to advance these bans at both the state and national level. President Biden and Vice President Harris stand with the majority of Americans who believe the right to choose is fundamental—and who have made their voices heard at every opportunity since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. As the President has made clear since the day of the Dobbs decision, the only way to ensure women in every state have access to abortion is for Congress to pass a law restoring the protections of Roe v. Wade.

Evidence (2024-04-23): - Black and American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) women ages 18-49 are more likely than other groups to live in states with abortion bans and restrictions. About six in ten Black (60%) and AIAN (59%) women ages 18-49 living in states with abortion bans or restrictions compared with just over half (53%) of White, less than half of Hispanic (45%), and about three in ten Asian (28%) and Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander (NHPI) (29%) women ages 18-49. [...] Six in ten of Black (60%) and AIAN (59%) women ages 18-49 live in states with abortion bans or restrictions (Figure 3). Just over half (53%) of White women ages 18-49 live in states with bans or restrictions, while less than half of Hispanic (45%) and about three in ten Asian (28%) and NHPI (29%) women ages 18-49 live in these states. Of note, in April 2024, the Arizona State Supreme Court upheld a Civil War era law banning nearly all abortions in the state. While that law is not currently in effect, if it were to go into effect in the future, the share of AIAN women living in a state with an abortion ban would rise from about three in ten (31%) to about four in ten (41%), and the share of Hispanic women living in a state with an abortion ban would increase from 24% to 28%.

Evidence (2023-04-18): Factual Background - In June 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the constitutionally protected right to access abortion,[2] leaving the question of whether and how to regulate abortion to individual states.[3] As of January 17, 2023, abortion is banned, with extremely limited exceptions, in thirteen states: Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Oklahoma.[4] Georgia has banned abortion after six weeks of pregnancy (effectively outlawing access entirely).[5] Approximately 22 million women and girls of reproductive age (ages 15-49) in the US live in states where abortion access is heavily restricted, and often totally inaccessible.[6] Four states have begun restricting access to medication abortions, including by prohibiting the mailing of medication into their jurisdictions.[7] Meanwhile, at least three states (Texas, Oklahoma, and Idaho) enacted so-called "bounty" laws before the Dobbs decision, empowering private citizens to sue providers who carry out abortions.[8] In continuation of the country’s devaluation of the lives of Black and Brown women, communities of color and of lower socio-economic status are bearing the brunt of these laws.[9] Dozens of clinics have closed across the country since Dobbs was decided,[10] increasing travel time and distance for women seeking care —

Evidence (2006-10-07): - Born - Birth nameTimothy Alan Dick - Nickname - The Tool Man - Height1.79 m - Timothy Allen Dick was born on June 13, 1953, in Denver, Colorado, to Martha Katherine (Fox) and Gerald M. Dick. His father, a real estate salesman, was killed in a collision with a drunk driver while driving his family home from a University of Colorado football game, when Tim was eleven years old. His mother, a community service worker, remarried her high school sweetheart, an Episcopalian deacon, two years after Tim's father's death. He was raised with his many siblings and step-siblings. When Tim was young, his family moved to Birmingham, Michigan.
Claim: “Actor and comedian Tim Allen died suddenly” in a “fatal car accident.” (Facebook Post, 2024-06-24)
Evidence (2022-11-15): Before he was Tim Taylor from "Home Improvement" and the voice of Buzz Lightyear from the "Toy Story" movie franchise, Tim Allen was just a regular guy. However, he had a tough time after losing his father at a young age, and for a while, his life went on a downward spiral. Allen had a good relationship with his father, but that was taken from him when he was just 11 years old. His father was killed in a car crash involving a drunk driver in November 1964. "I loved my father more than anything," the actor said (via ATI). He loved spending time with his father, and his loss was a big blow to him. [...] Tim Allen faced a sentence of life imprisonment, but he took a plea deal for a shorter sentence in exchange for providing the identities of other drug dealers. The information he gave, per ATI, helped convict four big drug dealers. Two years and four months into his sentence, Allen was granted parole. Allen recalled his stint in prison in a March 2021 episode of the "WTF with Marc Maron" (via People). [...] Tim Allen's life now
