About Previously 'Missing' Woman Jennifer Rothwell & Abortion Rights in the United States of America (U.S.A) - #Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W Condemns the Decision of the United States Supreme Court to Overturn the Landmark 1973 Ruling of Roe v Wade

The Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) regrets the decision of the Supreme Court to overturn the landmark 1973 ruling of Roe v Wade in light of murders such as the one committed against Jennifer Rothwell in the State of Missouri on (or around) November 11th 2019. For your information (FYI), Jennifer Rothwell is a woman who had been declared "missing" after she was murdered. In other words, Jennifer Rothwell was considered "missing" for some time after she was murdered. Jennifer Rothwell was also pregnant at the time of her murder. As a matter of principle, the Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) unequivocally condemns violence committed against women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their religious affiliations, their national origins, their disability status and/or their pregnancy status. According to records recently disclosed to the Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) by the City Clerk of Los Angeles, California; [1] “any official position of the City of Los Angeles with respect to legislation, rules, regulations or policies proposed to or pending before a local, state, or federal governmental body or agency must have first been adopted in the form of a Resolution by the City Council with the concurrence of the Mayor;” [2] the City of Los Angeles considers the ability to access safe and legal abortions as an important human right; [3] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “970 million women, representing 59% of women of reproductive age, live in countries that broadly allow abortion and 41% of women of reproductive age live under restrictive laws;” [4] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “legal restrictions on abortion do not result in fewer abortions and instead compel those seeking abortions to risk their lives and health by resorting to unsafe abortion practices;” [5] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “23,000 women die of unsafe abortions each year;” [6] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “women across the world have fought for the right to access safe and legal abortions for decades;” [7] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that ”in the United States, the 1973 Roe v Wade Supreme Court decision affirmed the right to receive an abortion under the 14th Amendment;” [8] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “the 1992 Planned Parenthood v Casey Supreme Court decision upheld the right to receive an abortion, adding that any restrictions should be evaluated under an undue burden standard;” [9] the City of Los Angeles, California is cognizant that the United States Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade ruling on June 24th 2022; [10] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that the Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade ruling after hearing oral arguments in Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Clinic; [11] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that the impact of overturning Roe v Wade will be most felt by “marginalized groups who already face significant barriers accessing abortion care, particularly low-income women of color;” [12] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that “8,000 to 16,000 more people will travel to California each year for abortion care;” [13] The City of Los Angeles have tasked their Administrative Officer to report “on the feasibility of allocating funding to help subsidize costs for persons from other states seeking abortion care; [14] the City of Los Angeles have tasked their legal representatives to “prepare and present a draft ordinance to prohibit any City resources, including but not limited to, time spent by employees, officers, or the use of City property, from being utilized to detain persons for procuring, providing, or aiding in abortion care in the City of Los Angeles;” [15] the City of Los Angeles have tasked their legal representatives to “prepare and present a draft ordinance to prohibit any City resources, including but not limited to, time spent by employees, officers, or the use of City property, from being utilized to cooperate with or provide information to any individual or out of state agency or department investigating persons who procure, provide, or aid in abortion care in the City of Los Angeles;” [16] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that the U.S President can “direct the leaders of every federal agency to explore options to protect abortion rights, including the use of federal property and resources to increase abortion access such that reproductive care and abortion can occur on those properties and be exempt from the state’s abortion laws;” [17] the City of Los Angeles is cognizant that federal agencies such as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) can “encourage states to use their own Medicaid funds, which are not governed by the Hyde Amendment, to cover abortion services and expand other family planning services as well as pursue more aggressive enforcement of federal requirements which guarantee that Medicaid beneficiaries have the ability to seek family planning services from their provider of choice.” Be well. Stay well. Take care. Keep yourselves at arms distance. Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W Anti-Racist Human Rights Activist Audio-Visual Media Analyst Anti-Propaganda Journalist
