Planned Parenthood Pasadena & San Gabriel Valley Statement on the U.S. Supreme Court’s Draft Majority Opinion Seeking to Completely Overturn Roe v Wade

PASADENA, CALIF. – Planned Parenthood Pasadena & San Gabriel Valley released the following statement from Juliana Serrano, Vice President of Advocacy and Equity, on the Politico story revealing the U.S. Supreme Court’s draft majority opinion seeking to completely overturn Roe v Wade, overturning 50 years of Supreme Court precedent recognizing the federal constitutional right to a safe and legal abortion:

“No matter the outcome when the Supreme Court eventually issues its final decision, we will continue to provide abortion services to people seeking care. Abortion is and remains legal in California. Planned Parenthood Pasadena & San Gabriel Valley is open and proudly providing abortion services, while also actively working to expand abortion access. This will not change, no matter what the Supreme Court decides. While it’s not easy to grasp this devastating news, I can confidently say that we were ready for this worst-case scenario and prepared to offer more abortion appointments. We are standing strong, and we are able to do this because our patients, supporters, and community all believe in the essential health care we provide every day.”

Note: Please reach out to me directly if you’re interested in a media interview.
