Melinda French Gates will donate $1 billion over the next two years to women and family rights around the globe, including reproductive rights in the post-Dobbs era. "As shocking as it is to contemplate, my 1-year-old granddaughter may grow up with fewer rights than I had," French Gates wrote in a New York Times op-ed published Tuesday.
