A group of 154 economists, many of whom are professors, recently submitted an amicus brief to the Supreme Court ahead of a December 1 hearing on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health.
The brief states that the court should strike down a Mississippi law that prohibits abortions after 15 weeks because abortion access has “changed the arc of women’s lives.”
Particularly, the economists say, black women have benefited from abortion more than any other racial group, as seen by the higher rates of abortion.
“Another group disproportionately affected by abortion legalization was Black women,” the economists wrote. “For Black women, the estimated reduction in birth rate was two to three times greater than the reduction for white women.”
