250 bills have been proposed in 41 states limiting or banning women’s access to reproductive medical care, personal choice to plan out her family, and reduce tax burden on her community.
Access to sex education and low cost/free birth control have been proven to lower the need for abortion to almost zero. Until these programs have been implemented nationwide, we’ll unfortunately see higher need for abortion treatments.
Many get their healthcare at Planned Parenthood including birth control, health exams, and body education. Abortion access is needed by women from all walks of life. Examples include mothers not wanting another child, girls starting their development, victims of assault, pregnancies with complications, & women not ready/wanting kids.
