These US companies will cover travel costs for employees -- and, in some cases, their dependents -- seeking abortions in states that outlaw the procedure.

New York After the Supreme Court ruled on Friday to overturn Roe v. Wade, corporate giants from a range of industries pledged to provide support and financial assistance for employees — and, in some cases, their dependents — seeking abortions in states that outlaw the procedure.

The court's decision to roll back the nearly 50-year-old landmark ruling, which protected the federal, constitutional right to an abortion, is expected to transform the landscape of reproductive health in America, leaving abortion policy up to individual states and paving the way for numerous states to pass new abortion restrictions. As of Friday afternoon, state officials in at least seven states said that new abortion bans can now be enforced.

Great. I drove out of my way to go to Dick's Sporting Goods this morning. Hopefully we don't learn any of these companies donate to Republicans though.

Now do cancer treatments!

one is talking about the impact of young males and young teens and abortion, and how anti-abortion laws will criminalize young males in their teens. And the mass incarceration of young males of color in their teens , from high School to jail.

But will they keep supporting GOP candidates? Show me where that money goes.

Free vacations for everyone! All you have to do is get someone Pregnant.... Free diseases and vacations for everyone!

Wow, I knew democrats were for paid maternity leave but to see republicans advocating for it the comments makes it even more possible. Wonder what changed their minds..

SCOTUS ruled that states can legislate women into slavery. Every decent person has to fight back however they can.

I wonder how many will see their pay raises decreased so these companies can pimp a social issue for the Dems? Will they manage to keep Unions at bay with this sweet deal wit Schumer?

How many of these companies made contributions to the politicians that support the recent rulings on Roe and the loosening of gun rights, save your praise.

American women can not decide their own body, it this freedom and human rights country ? it this 21th Century ?

America is becoming Sodom and Gomorrah. Let God destroy the devils in this nation and restore it to his people like wtf😡

Are pregnant men with an apple and a banana covered in this too or nah?

Gotta keep those women working!

They will help commit murder, gratis boycot them people!

Because they know it's cheaper than maternity leave. They are using your own foolish emotions against you. They are not doing this because they care about you. Youre just a replaceable number.

What a mess!!

Of course they will, perfect business strategy. Saves them big money! No maternity/paternity paid leave, no additional insurance costs and a more focused employee!! Those without families are much cheaper for the company. It's just business, not personal.

Hello KElectricPk light nahi hy? CMShehbaz

Translation: these companies would rather pay $500 on airplane tickets than maternity leave and health insurance for your kid.

Cheaper than a kid and no call outs for a sitter . Smart .

Cheaper than maternity leave AND you don’t lose out on a productive FTE for an extended period of time.

Some people will do anything to kill babies.

Of course they will. Much cheaper to pay for an abortion than maternity leave and insurance for another dependent. What’s shameful is that they’d seek to profit from encouraging their employees to do something they’ll regret forever. Evil

How about don't do sex when you are high or too drunk, and don't forget to use some kind of protection, it's easier and cheaper

Not the way to make the world a better place…

You have in America one simple remedy for this injustice how you vote in the midterms and 2024 remember if the GOP play this type of game you Dem’s can also play a game that is called packing the courts so it’s up to you how you vote

Cheaper than raising taxes on the gop to take care of all these babies

Way cheaper than maternity leave. Buying woke at a huge discount.

These companies can not manage your Transfiguration, Reincarnation and Resurrection. If you can't Resurrect or Reincarnate yourself, why do you want to Assassinate/Abort another Being. Assassination/Abortion can affect your Opportunities for Reincarnation and Resurrection.

How they think it looks: I fully support your choice How it is: I get social cred AND I dont have to insure your child or put up with those pesky productivity losses when you child is sick or otherwise needs you. The cost/benefit is extremely high.

Better then health care for a dependent for 18 years.

This is a great thing that they're doing we need more of them to do the same step up and protect the rights of your employees and if you fight for them they will fight for you that's just the way it works

It shouldn't have to come down to that... USA at its best.. dragging women's rights back into the dark ages & promoting guns - 🤢😡 OK to kill by guns not ok to help women in need priorities nofreedominUSA

Are these companies also funding the re-election campaigns of GOP members who oppose legalizing abortion?

Lulz

Good job!!

Constitutional Right? Hmm... not in my copy. Given history, Philly should know better Nowhere to be found in the constitution It’s cheaper for them to employ you and you are more productive without children. That’s why the companies want you to abort them

Disney among slew of U.S. companies promising to cover abortion travel costsLarge U.S. companies reacted after the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, with a slew of corporations vowing to expand health benefits to cover employee travel expenses to obtain abortions. It’s definitely cheaper for them to cover some travel expense as opposed to healthcare coverage for another dependent. I guess I never realized how many people are going for abortions regularly. 🤔 How about investing in contraceptives, no gender limitations, for both?
