As Roe turns 50, doctors and clinic workers discuss how bans and restrictions have impacted patient care, harassment, and violence from anti-choice extremists. A recent firebomb caused extensive damage to a Planned Parenthood clinic in Peoria, Illinois, according to authorities.
On this edition of Your Call, we continue marking the 50th anniversary of Roe v Wade by speaking with abortion providers about how bans and restrictions have impacted patient care, harassment, and violence by anti-choice extremists. Six months after conservatives on the Supreme Court overturned Roe, 17 states have banned or heavily restricted access to abortion. That number will soon be 24, according to the Guttmacher institute. We’ll discuss how bans and restrictions have affected patients across the board, from those who want to end their pregnancy to those who've been assaulted. Guests: Andrea Gallegos, executive administrator of the Alamo Women's Clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Carbondale Illinois Dr. Katie McHugh, OB/GYN who specializes in chronic pelvic pain and reproductive health, faculty with University of Cincinnati Department of OB/GYN, and board member with Physicians for Reproductive Health and OutCare Health Robin Marty, operations director for the West Alabama Women's Center, freelance reporter, and author of Handbook for a Post-Roe America
