Description
Summary:As in every year's April issue of the Journal, coinciding with National Public Health Week (#NPHW), we set up a dialogue between people of radically different political views who have in common a dedication to public health and an agreement that policy should be based as much as possible on scientific evidence. The dialogue has covered sensitive issues: racism and structural racism, gun violence prevention, single payer health insurance, public health advocacy, the Environmental Protection Agency, and more (e.g., https://ajph. aphapublications.org/toc/ajph/108/4). This issue is the first to address reproductive rights. It has proven to be the most difficult one to prepare.The authors of the opinion pieces were invited to comment on the public health consequences ofthe US Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v Wade and, in particular, which strategies, at the local and national levels, could best protect pregnant individuals and their children in the new context.
