Honolulu, Hawaiʻi – Fifty-eight (58) Democratic Members of the Hawaiʻi State Legislature issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade:
"The recent U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade is deeply disturbing. Abortion is still safe and legal in Hawaiʻi, under our state law. Today’s ruling means we need to remain vigilant and continue to ensure that a woman’s right to reproductive health care is protected in Hawaiʻi and access is provided to those who need it. Our sisters, daughters and granddaughters deserve to grow up in a country where they are afforded more rights, not less.”
