In June 2022, the Supreme Court, in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, overturned the federal right to abortion. Economist Evan Starr and his colleagues will field a survey experiment with a nationally representative sample of about 8,000 respondents, with an oversample of child-bearing age women, to estimate the value workers place on their employers providing access to out-of-state abortion-related healthcare and how attitudes vary across worker types.
