Celebrities and Politicians React to Roe v. Wade Decision

On Instagram, Padma Lakshmi shared a screenshot of her own tweet which reads, "People will still get abortions. These procedures won't stop just because Roe v. Wade is overturned. This will only prevent safe, legal abortions from taking place."

"Today is devastating and gut wrenching and I know it can be hard to stay motivated, but we need to keep fighting and fight like hell," she added in the caption of her post. "State and local elections are even more vital now more than ever before. Attend a protest or rally, write a letter or call your representatives and elected officials, join a virtual event or volunteer from home. The time is now to act and speak up."

She went on to include links to sources on reproductive freedom.
