GOVERNOR LAUNCHES PUBLIC EDUCATION CAMPAIGN ON NY ABORTION RIGHTS: Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v.

“Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angril “Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angrily panned Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which legalized abortion — a ruling that is expected to lead to abortion bans in half the states.

Both supporters and opponents of legalized abortion predicted that the fight will continue in state capitols, in Washington and at the ballot box.”

“The Supreme Court has ended constitutional prot “The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion that had been in place nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overturn Roe v. Wade. Friday’s outcome is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states.

After an extensive search, BWE was connected to the Calfa brothers, owners of Lassen and Hennigs and the space at 137 Montague, by Erika Belsey Worth of the BHA.
