, temporarily stopping abortion services. Most Wisconsinites seeking abortions are left with few options aside from traveling to “haven” states to receive care. As the dust settles post-the demand in states where abortion is still protected has spiked.

As abortion providers across the country contend with a patchwork of laws and restrictions around reproductive rights,impact she experienced firsthand in Wisconsin and her plans to travel to Illinois—through a partnership with Planned Parenthood—to provide abortion care.ruling came down, even if expected, it was still kind of a shocking moment.
I think the other component that was unique for Wisconsin and some of the other states [was that] our ban essentially would go into effect immediately. Where some states have bans that are set to take effect after a matter of days or weeks or whatever, ours was so dependent on the day that the decision came down, which obviously none of us knew. Even with all of this planning in place, the fact that the decision came down at 9:10 a.m.
We know that this ban is going to disproportionately impact our most vulnerable patients. And as much as some people say, “Oh, well, it’s only an hour to get to Illinois from Milwaukee”—we know that it is much further than that for a lot of areas in Wisconsin. Even that hour can be a barrier that a lot of patients cannot overcome.

What has the coordination aspect of all of this been like?ruling came out, as well as after—working with academic institutions across the state, trying to bring physicians together, lawyers together, to try to help people understand this law is archaic. It’s written before we had common use of ultrasound, before we had a lot of the common-day diagnoses that we have.
