Merle Hoffman has been at the forefront of the reproductive freedom movement since the 1970s. Three years before the Supreme Court legalized abortion through Roe v. Wade, she established one of the nation’s first abortion clinics, CHOICES Women's Medical Center, currently the largest and most comprehensive women’s medical facility in the country. For the last five decades, Hoffman has been a steadfast warrior and fierce advocate for Reproductive Justice.

Now, in the aftermath of the Dobbs Decision, Hoffman has carefully compiled her decades of experience research and analysis, into a tour de force MANIFESTO that sheds light on the catastrophic repercussions of overturning Roe, and what all people of conscience must do to ensure no woman girl or pregnant person lives as a second-class citizen in this country, without the right and access to legal, safe abortion.

In CHOICES, A Post-Roe Abortion Rights Manifesto, Hoffman expresses her views on where we are and what lies ahead. She covers topics including: revamping the healthcare system to support women’s rights; combatting rising authoritarianism; the weaponization of religion; fighting the antis; practicing courage; sabotage from within the movement; and activating the next generation in the fight for reproductive justice.

In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe V. Wade and a country divided, a pioneer in the pro-choice movement and women’s healthcare offers an unapologetic and authoritative take on abortion—“the front line and the bottom line of women’s freedom and liberty.”
