The battles over abortion in the U.S. are increasingly focusing on the pills that are now the most common way pregnancies are ended.
are increasingly focusing on restricting access to pills, which are the most common way to end a pregnancy in the U.S.
By last year, nearly two-thirds of abortions were from medications, according to a tally by the Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that supports abortion access. New York is one of at least eight states with a law intended to protect medical providers who prescribe abortion pills to patients in states with bans.
The state attorneys general from Idaho, Kansas and Missouri responded in October with a legal filing contending that they can make such an argument. Instead of focusing on the drug’s initial approval in 2000, they’re looking at later changes from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that allow its use for the first 10 weeks of pregnancy and telemedicine prescriptions.
Additional states are considering ways to restrict abortion pills in their 2025 legislative sessions.
