He expressed concern over the impact of the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, emphasizing that women's access to essential care remains a pressing issue.
Becerra acknowledged the recent court order in Idaho, which is expected to restore access to emergency medical services for women while legal proceedings continue. However, he underscored that the broader issue of reproductive freedom continues to face significant threats.
