It’s been one year since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision. So, what have women in rural America been experiencing since? Joel and Heidi dive into the aftermath of the

Dobbs decision and the stark reality of women's health care and abortion service accessibility – or lack thereof – with Cecile Richards and Dr. Sarah Traxler.

Cecile Richards shares the stories of women forced to travel long distances from small, rural towns in search of affordable OBGYN healthcare and the increasing reluctance of OBGYNs to practice in certain rural states. Dr. Sarah Traxler talks about how the Dobbs decision drastically inhibited her ability to provide abortion care in certain states and how this impacts the future of students going into OBGYN specialties.

Cecile Richards is an activist and former president of Planned Parenthood. 

Dr. Sarah Traxler is the Chief Medical Officer of Planned Parenthood North Central States.
