New research finds that "shield laws" have allowed abortion pill access to remain steady.
Researchers from #WeCount are studying the impact of abortion restrictions following the overturn of Roe v. Wade. Their newest report focuses on the effects of shield laws in Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, Vermont, and Washington, which protect medical providers from legal repercussions when shipping abortion pills to patients in states facing abortion bans.
