tomorrow is the fourth anniversary of the dobbs decision, which overturned roe v. wade. since then:
13 states have total abortion bans
41 states have some sort of abortion bans in effect
51 Planned Parenthoods were forced to close in 2025 ALONE
women have died because doctors are scared to treat deadly miscarriages for fear of prosecution (and so many more are unreported)
this has led to miscarriage care being heavily mismanaged / compromised (2.8% increase in patients being sent home to wait and see; 2.2% decrease in medication management; and a 13.8% jump in misoprostol-only treatment, which is safe but not the standard of care in US and may take longer, resulting in more discomfort)
republicans are trying to make it illegal to ship medications like mifepristone, which are used to safely induce medical abortions (scotus reversed a decision to make it illegal, but lower courts are still fighting)
ob-gyns are leaving, in mass exodus, states with abortion bans which leaves a massive gap in reproductive healthcare
and i know i'm missing more.
