How states 'trap' abortion clinics to shut them down 17:31

21 hari yang lalu17:31

17:31

This week on CodeWACK! The Wyoming legislature effectively shut down the only surgical abortion clinic in the state. How did it use "TRAP" (Targeted Regulations Against Abortion Providers) as its legislative strategy? And how does this make getting an abortion even more challenging for residents in Wyoming and nearby states that have abortion bans? We recently spoke to Julie Burkhart, longtime reproductive rights advocate, founder and CEO of Trust Women Foundation , which works to expand access to abortion care in underserved communities. Julie is president of Wellspring Health Access , in Caspar, Wyoming and a protégé of Dr. George Tiller , who was murdered for providing abortion care in 2009. This is the second episode in a two-part series. We interviewed Julie just before the Wyoming legislature passed a bill that effectively shut down her women’s health clinic in Casper, Wyoming. Since this interview, the clinic has put a pause on performing abortions and is awaiting further guidance from a regulatory body. Check out the Transcript and Show Notes for more!
