“Distance prevents a lot of people from reaching providers,” says Myers, often times because they lack the money for travel, child care, and they can’t afford to miss work and lose wages.

      Hopefully, the abortion pills remain legal and easily available. States can’t regulate the mail system so they can’t intercept mailed abortion pills. (Doing so would be a federal offense.)

      Of course, we’ve not only got some right wing nut jobs as judges who would be more than willing to decide that states are completely allowed to open and inspect every piece of mail and any future Republican Congress/President could rule that abortion (including pills) are illegal nationwide.

      All it takes is one red wave to remove rights nationally that are (at best) hanging on by a thread in many places.
