According to data released last month by the Guttmacher Institute, 14 states no longer have any abortion providers.

The average time spent traveling to seek an abortion nearly quadrupled following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

The data shifted slightly when comparing the median versus averages. The median time it took someone to seek an abortion increased from 10.9 minutes in 2021 to 17 minutes following the ruling. The data showed that those in the southern U.S., particularly in Louisiana and Texas, saw the most significant increases in travel time.
