Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a preliminary ruling in Roe v. Wade that had previously secured a national abortion right. Now Duchess Meghan has decided to take a stand.
As a result of the annulment of the decision, the right to abortion will be decided by the states in the future. Legislation on abortions is expected to be tightened in as many as half of the U.S. states.
Meghan spoke about it in Vogue and called for the reaction of men in particular to overturn the decision. He also said Prince Harry was strong about the decision.
– Men need to be vocal now and in the future, as the decision affects relationships, families and communities. Women may be the target, but the consequences will affect us all.

Meghan said in an interview she had discussed the subject with Harry a lot in the last few days.
– She’s also a feminist, she told Vogue.
According to Meghan, the situation requires unity and an understanding that the U.S. constitution dates back to a time when women were “second-class citizens”.
– We are not. Certain things need to change, Meghan said.
– I know that many women are currently experiencing despair.
Several other U.S. public figures have also openly criticized the annulment of the preliminary ruling. Among other things, pop star Madonna said she was scared for her daughter.
– I woke up to the horrible news that Roe v. Wade is over and the court has ruled that we women have no right to our own bodies. This decision has driven me and every woman in this country to great despair, Madonna wrote on her Instagram account.
Singer Lizzo, meanwhile, has vowed to donate $ 1 million with Live Nation for safe abortions.
Michelle and Barack Obama have also criticized the decision.

“My heart is broken for all the people who lost their fundamental right to make a decision about their bodies,” Michelle Obama commented.
The preliminary ruling in Roe v. Wade was made in 1973. The Conservative-majority Supreme Court overturned the decision by 6-3 votes.
