“It’s been two years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade and ended the nationwide right to abortion. For anyone hoping that the 2022 Dobbs decision would be the last word, it has not turned out that way. Abortion is at the center of elections this year, and it’s still in the courts. But a lot of details have changed since that ruling.”

“Travel has become a big part of the reality of abortion because of state bans, including 14 where it’s not allowed at any stage of pregnancy. One study found that about one sixth of abortions last year involved crossing state lines. Advocates say the cost can be much higher for women who have to travel hundreds of miles, and that can leave lasting financial impacts.”
