Several of those states have banned or are in the process of banning abortion pills within their borders. The Governor of Massachusetts has spoken with pharmacies in the state and has reminded them that they MUST stock up on the controversial abortion pill.
Fox News reports that this comes as a federal judge in Texas is looking at a lawsuit that would overturn federal approval for the drug that has existed for decades.

If true, there would be fewer medical pill abortions performed in the country, which is terrifying for some Democrats and liberals.

Fox News reports that more than a dozen states banned abortion after the Supreme Court ruled against the long-standing principles of Roe v. Wade last year.
Governor Healey said that if they yield to the other side, they will “strip pregnant people of their agency and rights and will violate the responsibility of pharmacies and pharmacy departments to provide critical healthcare services.” That is not something that she will go along with, and she will take every step that she possibly can to make sure abortion is protected in the entire state of Massachusetts, including using abortion pills whenever they want.
