Along with lack of widespread access, prohibitive costs — including the need to travel far to reach a provider — and anti-abortion sentiment in some areas all make it harder for people across California to find the abortion they need. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11896908/for-many-rural-and-lower-income-californians-abortion-services-remain-hard-to-access\">Read more about how abortion access remains hard in lower-income or rural areas of the state.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For this reason, you might consider supporting California-based groups working to expand abortion access within the state itself. These groups include organizations like \u003ca href=\"https://accessrj.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Access Reproductive Justice\u003c/a>, which offers assistance with finances, transportation, lodging, child care and emotional issues for all individuals seeking abortions in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"ask\">\u003c/a>What else do you need to know?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We know this news is affecting many of you greatly — sparking anger, fear and confusion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We want to be able to provide you with the information you need.

The nonprofit has already been helping hundreds of Californians every year with the logistical challenges of obtaining an abortion. \u003ca href=\"https://www.guttmacher.org/fact-sheet/state-facts-about-abortion-california#1\">In 2017, 40% of counties within the state had no clinics that provide abortions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since last fall, volunteer engagement coordinator Tricia Gray has been recruiting more volunteers to help with the anticipated surge in out-of-state patients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am amazed at people coming together and supporting and showing up for people that they don’t even know, in droves,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11916720 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/abortion-illodraft3-1020x660.jpg'] Gray has about 60 active volunteers now, but is working to bring that up to 250 statewide. Geographically, she’s focusing on neighborhoods near LAX, the main airport in Los Angeles, which they expect will be a hub for people from out of state.

Every time a person from out of state makes an appointment, one of the clinic’s abortion navigators calls them to see if they need help with travel, she says. The navigators can arrange reimbursement for some expenses, but not for everyone who calls, and only up to $500 for each patient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers’ proposed Abortion Practical Support Fund would help by providing grants to nonprofits like Access Reproductive Justice or Planned Parenthood that can be used to help people, in state and out of state pay for logistical costs, including airfare, taxis, gas money, childcare or translation services. The grants can also be used to fund the work of abortion navigators or volunteer coordinators like Gray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an idea local anti-abortion activists oppose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re calling it abortion tourism,” said Greg Burt, a Sacramento-based advocate with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.californiafamily.org/\">California Family Council\u003c/a>. “Come to California, go to the beach, get your abortion done and we’ll pay for it, by the taxpayer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says he wishes the state would put more money into removing the obstacles to having a child, rather than focusing on clearing the obstacles to abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those incentives send a message that we value one more than the other,” Burt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/blog/where-do-californians-stand-on-abortion/\">Nearly 80 percent of Californians have said they’re opposed to overturning Roe v. Wade\u003c/a>, according to an October poll. At a mall in San Francisco in June, KQED found a similar majority thought it was a good idea for the state to use their tax dollars to help people from other states come here for abortion care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s okay, because what if a woman would get raped?” said Latasha Johnson, 44, referring to some state bans that would prohibit abortion even in cases of rape or incest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Setting aside taxpayer money is really important to ensure safe abortions for people,” said Caroline Fong, 19, a college student who, in the fall, will return to campus in Missouri, one of 13 states with a so-called trigger law set to automatically ban abortion if the Supreme Court overturns Roe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we can help, we should,” said Howard Dixon, 60, adding that the government “wastes a lot of money anyway. So I would like to think that a little bit of my money is going towards a good cause.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that getting taxed a little extra would be worth it so that we can help those who need to get an abortion,” said Niveditha Anand, 18, who works in a boba shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One couple KQED surveyed did not like the idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not agree with that,” said Joe Bacan, 44, a construction worker, speaking in Spanish. “We believe in protecting life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His wife, Claudia Sanchez, 49, added: “There are a lot of things we could invest in that would be better than that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposed fund, detailed in \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB1142\">Senate Bill 1142\u003c/a>, is one of 13 bills moving through the state legislature that are aimed at \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11914440/california-wants-to-be-the-nations-abortion-haven\">making California an abortion sanctuary state\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee Mitchell supports these efforts, but she wants to be even more involved, more hands on. She imagines what it might have been like when she was 20, if her future self had picked her up at the airport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would have liked it. I think I probably would have opened up to the person, to the 75 year-old Lee,” she said. “I don’t know if everybody would have. I would have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seasoned advocates like Tricia Gray say the simple act of driving someone to the clinic, chatting about the traffic, or ordering them Thai food can be life-changing for the person seeking abortion care and for the volunteer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s transformative because of the simplicity,” Gray said. “It’s very revolutionary to just give someone a ride and say, ‘We got your back. We can’t solve it all, but at least we can solve this.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The navigators can arrange reimbursement for some expenses, but not for everyone who calls, and only up to $500 for each patient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers’ proposed Abortion Practical Support Fund would help by providing grants to nonprofits like Access Reproductive Justice or Planned Parenthood that can be used to help people, in state and out of state pay for logistical costs, including airfare, taxis, gas money, childcare or translation services. The grants can also be used to fund the work of abortion navigators or volunteer coordinators like Gray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an idea local anti-abortion activists oppose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re calling it abortion tourism,” said Greg Burt, a Sacramento-based advocate with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.californiafamily.org/\">California Family Council\u003c/a>. “Come to California, go to the beach, get your abortion done and we’ll pay for it, by the taxpayer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says he wishes the state would put more money into removing the obstacles to having a child, rather than focusing on clearing the obstacles to abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those incentives send a message that we value one more than the other,” Burt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ppic.org/blog/where-do-californians-stand-on-abortion/\">Nearly 80 percent of Californians have said they’re opposed to overturning Roe v. Wade\u003c/a>, according to an October poll. At a mall in San Francisco in June, KQED found a similar majority thought it was a good idea for the state to use their tax dollars to help people from other states come here for abortion care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s okay, because what if a woman would get raped?” said Latasha Johnson, 44, referring to some state bans that would prohibit abortion even in cases of rape or incest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Setting aside taxpayer money is really important to ensure safe abortions for people,” said Caroline Fong, 19, a college student who, in the fall, will return to campus in Missouri, one of 13 states with a so-called trigger law set to automatically ban abortion if the Supreme Court overturns Roe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we can help, we should,” said Howard Dixon, 60, adding that the government “wastes a lot of money anyway. So I would like to think that a little bit of my money is going towards a good cause.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that getting taxed a little extra would be worth it so that we can help those who need to get an abortion,” said Niveditha Anand, 18, who works in a boba shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One couple KQED surveyed did not like the idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not agree with that,” said Joe Bacan, 44, a construction worker, speaking in Spanish. “We believe in protecting life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His wife, Claudia Sanchez, 49, added: “There are a lot of things we could invest in that would be better than that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposed fund, detailed in \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB1142\">Senate Bill 1142\u003c/a>, is one of 13 bills moving through the state legislature that are aimed at \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11914440/california-wants-to-be-the-nations-abortion-haven\">making California an abortion sanctuary state\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee Mitchell supports these efforts, but she wants to be even more involved, more hands on. She imagines what it might have been like when she was 20, if her future self had picked her up at the airport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would have liked it. I think I probably would have opened up to the person, to the 75 year-old Lee,” she said. “I don’t know if everybody would have. I would have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seasoned advocates like Tricia Gray say the simple act of driving someone to the clinic, chatting about the traffic, or ordering them Thai food can be life-changing for the person seeking abortion care and for the volunteer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s transformative because of the simplicity,” Gray said. “It’s very revolutionary to just give someone a ride and say, ‘We got your back. We can’t solve it all, but at least we can solve this.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Democrats, expecting the deadlock, immediately moved ahead with a procedural step to discharge the nomination to a vote before the full Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During her hearing before the Senate Judiciary committee, Republicans attacked Jackson as a partisan and leaned heavily on culture war fights rather than inquiries concerning the nominee’s qualifications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple Republicans, including Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee and Josh Hawley of Missouri, accused the judge of being lenient toward child sexual abusers.

Why do we want junior-varsity politicians? A lot of unfortunate thoughts for the institution can go through people’s minds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During Jackson’s time on the court, Breyer’s conception of the Supreme Court will be tested as the court’s conservative majority rules on cases concerning some of the nation’s most controversial social and political issues, ranging from abortion access to the role of race in college admissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Barbara Sprunt and Susan Davis contributed reporting.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2022 NPR.

They have been trying to get firearms cases before a high court that tilts more to the right because of appointments by former President Donald Trump. Ninth Circuit Judge Patrick Bumatay, who was appointed by Trump, wrote a dissent and said large-capacity magazines are “commonly used” by Americans for self-defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Indeed, these magazines are lawfully owned by millions of people nationwide and come standard on the most popular firearms sold today,” he wrote. “If California’s law applied nationwide, it would require confiscating half of all existing firearms magazines in this country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His dissent was joined by two other judges, while a fourth judge wrote a separate dissenting opinion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority decision hinged in part on which legal standard should be used to determine the outcome, and the 9th Circuit’s majority chose the more stringent standard. It found that “intermediate scrutiny applied because the ban imposed only a minimal burden on the core Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gun rights groups hope the Supreme Court will select a lower legal standard for Second Amendment cases in an upcoming decision on a New York law restricting concealed weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re disappointed but not surprised that this particular 11-judge panel had the numbers to overturn the lower court decision. But the fight is far from over,” said Chuck Michel, the California Rifle and Pistol Association’s president and general counsel. Seven judges on the 9th Circuit panel were appointed by Democratic presidents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The panel is bitterly factioned, and the dissenting judges are all suggesting that the Supreme Court needs to take this case to explain how a Second Amendment challenge should be reviewed,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gun control proponents and California Attorney General Rob Bonta hailed the ruling, with Bonta calling it “a victory for public safety in California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He called California’s ban on large-capacity magazines a commonsense way to confront “an epidemic” of gun violence “including devastating mass shootings.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta noted that the court’s majority said every mass shooting with 20 or more deaths in the last 50 years involved large-capacity magazines, as did about three-quarters of those with 10 or more deaths. More than twice as many people were killed or injured in mass shootings with high-capacity magazines than those with less firepower, the court said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jonathan Lowy, chief counsel and vice president for legal at the Brady gun control advocacy group, said the court’s majority rightly held that “the Constitution, properly understood, does not prevent Americans from enacting the gun laws they want and need to protect their families and communities, and it does not entitle people to weapons of war.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Four years ago, San Diego-based U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez declared unconstitutional a state law that since 2000 had prohibited buying or selling large-capacity magazines. That law barred new sales or imports but let those who had the magazines before then keep them. Benitez also barred the state from enforcing a voter-approved law that would have prohibited gun owners from possessing magazines holding more than 10 bullets. The practical impact was that those who already possessed weapons with such magazines would have had to turn them in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gun groups estimated that more than 1 million high-capacity magazines may have legally flooded into California during a one-week window before Benitez stayed his ruling pending appeal. The three-judge 9th Circuit panel upheld Benitez’s ruling and kept the stay in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aside from the effect on high-capacity magazine laws in California and other states, Tuesday’s ruling helps to unjam a roadblock in other pending cases over the state’s ban on assault weapons. Everytown for Gun Safety, a leading group seeking firearms restrictions, said state officials’ appeal of Benitez’s ruling this year throwing out California’s assault weapon restrictions was on hold while the 9th Circuit considered the ban on high-capacity magazines. The assault weapons ruling is also on hold while the appeals court considers the same issues in a different case, where a different federal judge upheld the state’s ban in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The program provides temporary protection from deportation, and work authorization, to undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children. Hanen, based in Texas, argued that DACA was created illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision does not end legal protections for the roughly 616,000 current DACA participants.

Wong\u003c/strong>: Judge Hanen ruled that DACA is unlawful because the creation of DACA violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which requires public comment before changing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling by Hanen based on the APA is a bit ironic because the last several years of the battle over DACA in the courts saw DACA being preserved mostly because of the APA as well. The Trump administration tried to end (DACA). DACA advocates [then] made a legal argument that the way that the Trump administration tried to end DACA violated the APA. Therefore, district courts all the way up to the Supreme Court said that DACA should stay. And now we have Judge Hanen relying on the same Administrative Procedure Act to essentially rule that DACA is illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What is the immediate impact of this decision?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom K. Wong\u003c/strong>: The immediate impact is already being felt. Those who are first-time applicants, they should have received text notification from USCIS saying that biometrics appointments are now canceled. So part of applying for DACA not only includes a paper application, but once that's received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), then individuals go in for biometrics, for example, to provide their fingerprints. So those appointments are already being canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the approximately 600,000 active DACA recipients, this means more uncertainty and more limbo. We essentially had four years of uncertainty over DACA under the Trump administration. And this particular ruling — although it does not say that current active DACA recipients will lose their status — adds to the sort of uncertainty that the recipients are living with on a day to day [basis] and makes more vivid the importance of a permanent legislative solution for not just DACA recipients, but for undocumented immigrants more generally.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Experiences of DACA Recipients\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What was your reaction to the ruling?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Ju Hong, DACA recipient and member of Immigrants Rising\"]'I'm really tired and I cannot live like this anymore with this fear ...

I was tired of hearing this news all over again. I just had to let out the frustration with other DACA recipients who are applying for it, and they all felt frustrated and angry, and this gave another affirmation that DACA is temporary and we cannot live in this limbo every two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honestly, I'm really tired and I cannot live like this anymore with this fear and this anxiety and the stress, I think enough is enough.

When I applied in 2014, I was hesitant. I didn't trust the government. I wasn't sure whether it would be approved and we would be turning over all of our information, that on its own is a little bit scary to apply for the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I understand why some folks hesitated to apply.

Yet here we are.

And so the failure of the DREAM Act in 2010, followed by a looming reelection of President Obama in early 2012, combined with potential Republican DREAM Act legislation being introduced by then-Republican presidential hopeful Marco Rubio. That was the political backdrop for the announcement of DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label ='Related Coverage' tag='immigration'][Budget reconciliation] seems to be the most viable path forward right now.

The program provides temporary protection from deportation, and work authorization, to undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children. Hanen, based in Texas, argued that DACA was created illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision does not end legal protections for the roughly 616,000 current DACA participants. However, the legal decision does suspend approvals of new applications and leaves the door open for DACA to be terminated in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Biden has \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/07/17/statement-by-president-joe-biden-on-daca-and-legislation-for-dreamers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pledged to appeal the ruling\u003c/a> and called on Congress to protect so-called Dreamers and create a path to citizenship for millions of people who lack legal status in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 19, KQED Forum host Mina Kim spoke with the following guests to get an overview of the legal decision and what happens next, and also to hear from immigrants who could be affected:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://polisci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/faculty-directory/currently-active-faculty/wong-profile.html\">Tom K.

Wong\u003c/strong>: Judge Hanen ruled that DACA is unlawful because the creation of DACA violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which requires public comment before changing policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling by Hanen based on the APA is a bit ironic because the last several years of the battle over DACA in the courts saw DACA being preserved mostly because of the APA as well. The Trump administration tried to end (DACA). DACA advocates [then] made a legal argument that the way that the Trump administration tried to end DACA violated the APA. Therefore, district courts all the way up to the Supreme Court said that DACA should stay. And now we have Judge Hanen relying on the same Administrative Procedure Act to essentially rule that DACA is illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What is the immediate impact of this decision?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom K. Wong\u003c/strong>: The immediate impact is already being felt. Those who are first-time applicants, they should have received text notification from USCIS saying that biometrics appointments are now canceled. So part of applying for DACA not only includes a paper application, but once that's received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), then individuals go in for biometrics, for example, to provide their fingerprints. So those appointments are already being canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the approximately 600,000 active DACA recipients, this means more uncertainty and more limbo. We essentially had four years of uncertainty over DACA under the Trump administration. And this particular ruling — although it does not say that current active DACA recipients will lose their status — adds to the sort of uncertainty that the recipients are living with on a day to day [basis] and makes more vivid the importance of a permanent legislative solution for not just DACA recipients, but for undocumented immigrants more generally.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I was tired of hearing this news all over again. I just had to let out the frustration with other DACA recipients who are applying for it, and they all felt frustrated and angry, and this gave another affirmation that DACA is temporary and we cannot live in this limbo every two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honestly, I'm really tired and I cannot live like this anymore with this fear and this anxiety and the stress, I think enough is enough.

This takes us back. It's unbelievable that we're in this place yet again where our livelihoods are compromised, where the uncertainty is still there and our lives are still very much in limbo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA allowed so many of us to apply for opportunities we never even imagined.

When I applied in 2014, I was hesitant. I didn't trust the government. I wasn't sure whether it would be approved and we would be turning over all of our information, that on its own is a little bit scary to apply for the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I understand why some folks hesitated to apply. Once you apply, we know that the program can be destroyed at any moment, as it was during the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I applied in 2014, they told me it would be political suicide for anyone to attack the program. Yet here we are. Where not only the prior administration attacked it and we had to step up and sue the federal government ourselves, but now the state of Texas is doing its own lawsuit and we don't know what's going to happen with the program yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11881810\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11881810\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/07/GettyImages-1329566422-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Two people wearing facemasks hold up signs that say, 'Immigrant rights are human rights!' and 'No human is illegal.

And so the failure of the DREAM Act in 2010, followed by a looming reelection of President Obama in early 2012, combined with potential Republican DREAM Act legislation being introduced by then-Republican presidential hopeful Marco Rubio. That was the political backdrop for the announcement of DACA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
