There is a documentary called "Trapped" about how the right has nibbled away the ability for women to be able to get an abortion legally. Some states are down to one or two clinics where a woman can get the procedure and they may have to jump through hoops such as listening to non-scientific warnings and getting an ultrasound, having to go to a clinic twice (which means missing work and driving long distances) and other obstructionist tactics that have been passed as law in some states.

I haven't seen it.
@TerriCity It’s about an abortion clinic with a crisis pregnancy center across the street. Interesting doc.
Another decision to restrict women's choice today. Alabama passed a law to restrict the abortion pill to providers with "hospital privileges" - even though the pill is at least ten times safer than carrying a pregnancy. There is only one provider left in the state of Alabama and abortions now can only be performed by less safe and more invasive procedures due to no providers who are able to obtain the hospital privileges. The case was brought to the supreme court in hopes they would overturn the law as an undue burden on women seeking to use their right to abortion as has been dp0ne in other cases, , but the court refused to hear the case.
