Women or Fetuses First? An Experimental Study of the Effectiveness of the Pro-Life Movement’s Use of the “Pro-Woman” Frame
While abortion has been a contentious and salient political issue in the United States for decades, the debate around abortion has evolved in terms of the rhetorical frames employed by advocates on both sides. Using vignettes of statements made by hypothetical lawmakers, we evaluate responsiveness to some of these emergent frames. Specifically, we evaluate “pro-woman” framing employed by pro-life advocates, which positions abortion restrictions a…
Deconstructing Dobbs
When the US Supreme Court's conservative majority overturned Roe v.

In this special issue, we cover a range of theoretical and practical implications of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision and the stratification of reproductive fr…
Empowering women by regulating abortion? Conservative women lawmaker’s cooptation of feminist language in US abortion politics
Conservative women in US state legislatures outpace their male colleagues in introducing anti-abortion policies. In doing so, they often frame anti-abortion policy standpoints in feminist terms.

By centering women’s welfare, conservative women seek to enhance their representation, and wrest the mantle of being “pro-woman” from feminists. In…
Women Deserve Better
In US political discourse, anti-abortion framing traditionally focuses on the right to life of the fetus. However, a "pro-life, pro-woman" frame increasingly gained ground among anti-abortion advocates inside and outside of elected office throughout the turn of the 21st century. The pro-woman frame in contemporary anti-abortion discourse situates abortion as inherently harmful for women – both psychologically and physically – and insists that wom…
