With states taking steps to outlaw or limit abortion access, many women without legal immigration status are in a more vulnerable position.
"When we think about the impact of the decision, poor women, women of color and immigrant women will be the more severely affected," said Laurie Zephyrin, vice president of advancing health equity at The Commonwealth Fund, a nonpartisan research fund on health care.
"We need to be able to tell people what is legal and what isn't," said Cárdenas Peña."We try our best to give people the information and resources they need." Many undocumented people cannot obtain health insurance through government programs, such as Medicaid, Children's Health Insurance Program, or the Affordable Care Act marketplace. They also might not receive insurance through their employer and often go without needed care, according to data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, a health care research institute.
Abortion-rights activists gather for a protest following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade at Washington Square Park on June 24 in New York. . But detainees often complain about understaffed medical teams and indifferent or abusive officials, according to the Center for American Progress, an independent, nonpartisan policy institute."Unfortunately, the women who are in detention centers and find themselves pregnant have very few options," said Jessica Gomez, a board member of Frontera Fund, an abortion fund serving the Rio Grande Valley border community in Texas.
