Latinas are the largest group of women of color affected by current and future state abortion bans and restrictions: More than 4 in 10 Latinas of reproductive age live in the nearly two dozen states where officials are working to make abortion inaccessible.
Three-quarters of the Latinas who live in states with abortion bans or restrictions are concentrated in Texas, Florida and Arizona.
Roe’s repeal opened the door for 13 states, most of them in the South and the Midwest, to implement abortion bans.
Nearly 3.1 million Latinas affected by current and future abortion bans in the 26 states are already mothers.
Close to 4.3 million white Latinas, 820,500 multiracial Latinas, over 107,000 Black Latinas, nearly 57,000 Native Latinas and 18,500 Asian American Pacific Islander Latinas live in those states.
