Of the 12 WNBA head coaches in 2020, only 4 were women and none were women of color. The consistent lack of diversity is unacceptable. After nearly 25 years, the pool of retired players with interest and experience in coaching and front office positions is clear and extensive.

This ruling provides a treacherous pathway to abortion bans that reinforce economic, social and political inequalities and could lead to higher rates of maternal mortality while eviscerating rights to reproductive freedom for everyone. #BansOffOurBodies
