The Supreme Court’s recent decision to overturn Roe v. Wade could cause migrant children in U.S. government custody to lose abortion access, including in cases that involve domestic abuse, human trafficking, and rape.
While the White House is expected to soon take measures to ensure “unaccompanied minors” will have abortion access for the remainder of President Joe Biden’s term, multiple sources told VICE News, the Supreme Court’s June 24 ruling leaves the door open for a Republican president to radically restrict the reproductive rights of young migrant women in federal custody.
