Amanda Zurawski

Advocacy work On 26 April 2023, Zurawski appeared in a United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary hearing on the impact of the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade. She addressed her senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, saying that her "horrific" experience was due to the policies they supported and that she "nearly died on their watch".

Zurawski campaigned heavily for President Biden's re-election and subsequently was a surrogate in the presidential campaign of Kamala Harris in 2024 as an outspoken supporter to "restoring and protecting reproductive rights in this country". She was featured in a campaign ad focused on abortion access that retold her story and near-death experience. In August 2024, Zurawski appeared along with her husband Josh as a speaker at the 2024 Democratic National Convention where she talked about abortion rights remaining a top-of-mind concern for her, along with access to contraception and IVF, which have been targeted by some sectors of the anti-abortion movement. In a statement with The 19th, Zurawski did not rule out running for public office in 2026.

Documentary movie In November 2024 a documentary movie about Zurawski and her case titled Zurawski v Texas was released in cinemas. The movie features Zurawski and others centered in the case, alongside lead attorney Molly Duane of the Center for Reproductive Rights and others and was co-directed by Maisie Crow and Abbie Perrault.

She was named one of Time’s Women of the Year for 2025.
