“There is increased unequal access to health care services for women because of cultural and social barriers, because of economic barriers and because of the fact that there’s a lack of services for reproductive health,” said Christian Nunes, president of the National Organization for Women – the largest grassroots group of feminist activists in the United States.

“I always like to preface by saying equity has to happen before equality can happen,” Nunes said.
