    The Spin


    Enabled by reckless doctors protected by shield laws, more women are turning to medicated abortions prescribed remotely without knowing the full risks that these medicines entail. Women deserve to have the resources they need to take care of their future children, not abortion pills that carry four times the risk of complication compared to surgical abortions. We need to continue building a culture of life in America.

    Overreach from conservative judges and states cannot abrogate a woman's right to bodily autonomy, as restrictions have failed to reduce abortions nationwide. Instead of being forced to rely on back alley means, as some feared, legally protected telehealth providers have created a new landscape for abortion access. Getting medicated abortions can be as easy as a few clicks online, a terrific step forward for reproductive rights.


    Metaculus Prediction

    There is a 50% chance that 55% of US states will have Casey-era abortion protections on May 1, 2026, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
