NEW YORK – New York Attorney General Letitia James recently filed a motion to hold Red Rose Rescue, an anti-abortion extremist group, in contempt for willfully defying a court order that prohibits the group and its members from blocking access to reproductive health care clinics. In June 2023, the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) filed a lawsuit against Red Rose Rescue for invading reproductive health care clinics, threatening staff and clinicians, and terrorizing patients. In December 2023, OAG obtained a preliminary injunction that prohibited the group from coming within 15 feet of reproductive health care clinics within the jurisdictions of the Southern District of New York (SDNY) and the Eastern District of New York (EDNY).
