 Readout of Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta’s Meeting with Members of European Parliament to Discuss Women’s Rights</p>
<p>Today, Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta participated in a meeting with a delegation from the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE), alongside attendees from the White House Gender Policy Council and the U.S. Department of State. The convening, which featured representatives from Belgium, Croatia, France, Germany and Spain, was hosted by the State Department.</p>
<p>During the discussion, the Associate Attorney General highlighted how the Justice Department has collaborated with its federal partners to protect reproductive rights and counter gender-based violence. The group discussed how, under Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, the Justice Department established the Reproductive Rights Task Force, chaired by Associate Attorney General Gupta, as a whole-of-department effort to safeguard federal protections of reproductive rights in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision in <em>Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization</em>.</p>
<p>Today’s meeting takes place during National Women’s Health Week, which is observed May 14 &#8211; 20, and continues the department’s engagement with our international allies on gender-related issues. In early March, the Associate Attorney General hosted a delegation from the European Parliament’s Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality (FEMM). Moving forward, the department remains committed to working closely with our international allies to safeguard and strengthen the rights of all women.</p>
