This atmosphere of fear and restriction doesn't just impact abortions. It affects a wide range of reproductive healthcare services. Patients are left in limbo, unsure where to turn, while doctors grapple with ethical and legal dilemmas. The consequences ripple out, affecting families and communities across the state.
What's Next? 🤔
