James warned that anti-abortion lawmakers will 'continue to attack our basic rights' following the latest High Court decision.

New York Attorney General Letitia James warned that the fight for reproductive rights is 'not over' after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that emergency abortions can proceed in Idaho.The court handed down the decision in Moyle v. United States on Thursday, nearly two years after justices overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision that for decades guaranteed reproductive rights across the country, upending abortion access in several conservative states.

She wrote that she is 'proud to have worked with' these attorneys generals on the issue to 'ensure that the right to reproductive health care prevails over anti-choice forces who would deny people care when their health is at serious risk.''Abortion care is health care, and I am committed to ensuring that abortion remains accessible for New Yorkers, and that our state remains a safe haven for those seeking care,' James wrote.
