Read further in how the WNBA and athletes are blasting the Supreme Court decision to overturn Rie v. Wade, triggering the immediate end of abortions in 18 states:
“This decision shows a branch of government that is so out of touch with the country and any sense of human dignity” the WNBA statement began.
The WNBA “went on to encourage Americans to vote.”
“We must recognize that when we cast a ballot it is to elect officials and to connect the dots to policies and legislation that align with our values.”

Will the wnba commit to not hosting tournaments in states that have banned abortion?
Good news is it’s up to the states. So if you want an abortion go to a state that offers them!
Then pull teams in red states.
Ah yes, good old thoughts and prayers
This decision is bullshit but corporate activism makes me sick
“Should be able to make their own decisions.” -What about deciding to not have sex with random guys who bust inside of you.
“With those who fear for the repercussions of the Supreme Court.”
-You should take responsibility for you own actions and fear your own repercussions.
Like vaccines?
Lol
Why does the picture say women but the post says people?
Cept vaccines ofcourse
I’m going to make an incomplete list of medical procedures that are currently constitutionality protected. Please help me complete the list by adding on in your reply.
1.None
imagine believing murdering babies is reproductive healthcare..
.
“That’s for the fan to decide.”
Damn I don’t give a fuck what the WNBA or any firm thinks about political decisions.
This message will likely resonate with all 14 of the WNBA fans.
so basically, they think they know better than the supreme court
Who cares. Just play ball and people might start watching your trash organisation.
The WNBA seems much more committed to personal decisions about healthcare than they did 16 months ago.
“Personal decisions regarding health”
Now do the COVID one. Do it.
They advocate for gender equity but pay the WNBA players an absolute pittance? Math ain’t mathing.
Glad that’s settled.
So I can leave that child if she wants to keep it?
They can afford the pill. Plan ahead. Be smart.
Thinking they should care more about one of their star players still in prison abroad, but okay.
I’m sure this will please all twelve people who watch the WNBA.
They scared to say the word abortion or something?
WNBA is pathetic. Focus on sports! Natalism is important.
We also love China and support whatever they do as long as the money keeps flowing. You left that out btw
Than leave states that ban abortion. Put up or shut up
Forgot about the wnba till I saw this
