Bumble CEO Whitney Wolfe Herd on Abortion Decision

When your ability to choose if, when, and how to have children is taken away, so is your bodily autonomy. Reproductive rights are human rights.

I founded Bumble with one goal: to give women control over their relationships so they could live healthier and more equitable lives. This decision does quite literally the opposite, and the consequences will be devastating.

Banning abortion just means banning safe abortion.

Bumble will continue to support organizations committed to reinforcing reproductive rights. We’ll be making additional financial contributions to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Texas and Planned Parenthood Federation of America.

We aren’t done speaking up. And we won’t go back.
