IBM Chief Human Resources Officer Nickle LaMoreaux on Friday, June 24, 2022 shared with IBMers the following reaction to a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that overturned the legal precedent established by the 1973 decision in Roe vs. Wade:
 

"Abortion is a deeply personal topic and reproductive health decisions are shaped by each individual's unique beliefs and experiences. We urge civility and mutual respect in the national debate. IBM employees who wish to speak out on this issue, whatever their views, are encouraged to communicate directly through the democratic process on an individual basis. IBM has for decades included coverage for reproductive health services in our U.S. medical plans. That coverage will continue, as will our long-standing policy of ensuring IBMers and their dependents in the U.S. can access covered health services that are not available to them locally."
