(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) In attempts to circumvent pro-life laws in many states, abortion activists are searching for legal methods of delivering abortifacient drugs to women seeking the procedure.
Elizabeth Nash of the Guttmacher Institute, said “We’re going to see these different approaches by organizations as they assess what the laws say and develop their rationale for how to provide care,” The Post Millennial reported.
“We just don’t have a road map about how to provide medication abortion post-Roe, so it’s all being created right now,” Nash added.
Activists are attempting to prescribe medications to induce abortion past the 10 week limit set by the Food and Drug Administration.
Physicians are also providing telemedicine appointments to women seeking abortions and not requesting their location info.
Some physicians are even going as far as to provide abortion-inducing medication to anyone who simply asks, regardless of their situation, in hopes to saturate the market.
Tessa Longbons of the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute said these methods put women at high risk.
Abortion via medication “typically involves two drugs: mifepristone, which blocks a hormone necessary for pregnancy development, followed 24 to 48 hours later by which causes contractions that expel pregnancy tissue.”
Abortions via medication made up for over half of the abortions in the United States by 2020.
States with strong pro-life legislation include Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Ohio, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, and Texas. Several other states, such as Indiana, are following suit.
There are few laws surrounding the dissemination of abortion-inducing medication, allowing for legal gray area pro-abortion activists to take advantage of the gap.
Christie Pitney, a “midwife” who works for Europe based pro-abortion company Aid Access said prescribing before any potential laws go into effect is the solution, calling it “advance provision.”
She also said that women should get the medication wherever they can get it and hold onto it.
According to Pitney, Aid Access has received 10,000 requests for the medication after Roe‘s overturn.
