Australian-run software juggernaut Atlassian has vowed to help pay for its American employees to get a safe abortion, saying it 'stands firmly against' the US 's ruling.
The Supreme Court controversially elected to strike down Roe v.

Wade, a nearly 50 year-old decision that granted women the constitutional right to abortion, sparking widespread protests.
But while it was a federal ruling, women can travel to a state that allows abortion if they have the means.

Atlassian made it clear on Saturday morning it would immediately pay 'travel and accommodation' costs for US-based employees - and 'a companion' - so they can get a safe abortion.
Abortion remains legal in most states including California, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Nevada and Florida. 
It is banned in five states including Texas, and a further 11 are expected to follow.
The Australian company is among several to have quickly offered such benefits - despite being threatened not to do so by Republican senators.
Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, Starbucks, Tesla, Meta (Facebook), Uber, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup have all pledged material support for staff wanting abortions.
Atlassian's billionaire co-founder and joint-CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes tweeted his company's 'dismayed' reaction on Saturday morning with a defiant statement.

Mike Brookes-Cannon was quick to alert social media on Saturday to his company's official position on the US Supreme Court decision on abortion 
'Starting today US employees living in states that have restricted or banned abortions will be offered reimbursement for travel and accommodations for themselves and a companion should they seek care outside their state,' the statement said.
'Today's decision by the Supreme Court not only strips away rights from women and pregnant people but puts their health and safety at risk.
'At Atlassian we are dismayed at this decision and stand firmly against the restriction and removal of rights.'
