The Supreme Court of the United States just overturned the Roe v. Wade decision meaning abortion is no longer a guarantee for women. Not surprisingly, many companies and individuals are weighing in with their perspectives on this landmark decision.

While most people are repulsed at the thought of terminating an unborn life, many accept the reasons why the option is necessary. These people define this viewpoint as pro-choice and believe each woman has 100% choice over what happens to her body. Thus, a woman has the right to abort an unwanted child. Let’s explore what pro-choice advocates have to say with these slogans and quotes about the topic that has risen to the forefront of our public consciousness yet again.

Perhaps the woman isn’t financially or emotionally ready to have a child after a one-night affair.
