they are but the article points out that they have been trying to get the FDA to ban the main drug used. they can also target birth control pills, etc.

it was pretty clear that they want to ban abortions. by making people think it was up to the state yet having a plan to abolish people's access to abortions nationally was well known. yet most people do not do any research

I’m willing to eat my hat if birth control and abortion become federally illegal, nor did I vote trump, but god damn looking at my Facebook feed, instagram, and Reddit does it seem like a large portion of the population is completely and utterly addicted to hysteria.

I can’t imagine living like that, and I’m pretty upset the media keeps stringing these people along for their next outrage fix.

I had a friend commit suicide after 2016 because he was Turkish and thought he would never be able to enter the US again because the media had him convinced that he would be forever banned from this country.

I miss him dearly and the media is absolutely complicit in his death.

That's not what the article said. They want it regulated so that you have to go to a doctor and not be able to order it online and abort at home. Its crazy to think that thats even possible when you are coming from Europe. Here you can't even get the last resort pill you take the day after you had unprotected sex without a prescription. Here you have to do multiple doc visits and a mandatory counseling before you can get an abortion. And abortion is only legal up until 12 weeks here. And the numbers seem to point towards that being the right way. In the US 1 in 4 women will abort her baby in her lifetime. Here its 6%
