Kate Cox • The Legal Fight for Care

Kate Cox, a Texas mother of two, was thrilled to find out she was pregnant with her third child last year. But the dream of expanding her family quickly turned into a nightmare when Cox and her husband were told that their fetus had an anomaly called Trisomy 18 that, in their case, was fatal. In December 2023, Cox asked a Texas court to temporarily block the state's abortion ban so she could receive urgent medical care, becoming the first pregnant woman to sue for the right to terminate her pregnancy since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. Kate Cox recently attended the State of the Union as a guest of the Bidens’ and, on this week’s episode, sits down with Charlotte Alter to share her story. Tune in for an intimate and moving conversation about the grim realities that pregnant people face in post-Roe America.
