SAVING ABORTION PILLS - New research by JAMA network claims thousands of women stocked up on abortion pills in the past few years. Requests for abortion pills were the highest in May 2022, right after news leaked that the Supreme Court was set to overturn Roe vs. Wade. Aid Access, a European online telemedicine service that prescribes medication for future and immediate use, received 48,000 requests from across the US from September 2021 to April 2023. Nationally the average number of requests grew from 25 prior to the leak to 247 after the leak. Washington Correspondent Arielle Hixson examines the research and what this means for the status of reproductive health nationwide.
