President Joe Biden’s secretary of health and human services met with leaders of Planned Parenthood Arizona and pro-choice advocates in Phoenix Thursday for a roundtable on the uncertain landscape of abortion access in Arizona.
Secretary Xavier Becerra was joined by Planned Parenthood CEO Brittany Fonteno and several staff members at PPAZ as well as Eloisa Lopez, director of Pro-Choice Arizona.
The abortion providers, patient navigators and pro-choice advocates shared the many challenges they face assisting Arizona women seeking abortions since the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization Supreme Court decision this past June overturned Roe v. Wade.
