Read previewDonald Trump's views on a national abortion ban have not exactly been transparent. But then, last week, after Arizona's Supreme Court revived a near-total abortion ban dating back to 1864, Trump said the court had gone too far and that he wouldn't sign a national abortion ban if it came across his desk. Merle Hoffman, a longtime abortion activist, told Business Insider that some women have started to stockpile abortion pills like Mifepristone. "We've already seen women going ahead and getting tubals and their partners going ahead and getting vasectomies. AdvertisementIn this climate, Hoffman said the abortion rights movement is in an "extremely defensive political position" and is fighting for their rights state by state.

He appealed the court order, which has been stayed, throwing Kate Cox's abortion in flux. Hours later, Paxton swooped in with an appeal to the Texas Supreme Court and an ominous threat to prosecute any doctor that provides an abortion to Cox. On Friday, the Texas Supreme Court put a temporary hold on the Travis County judge's order, preventing Cox's doctors from proceeding with the abortion. The Texas Supreme Court has yet to issue a ruling on the case. The Center for Reproductive Rights, which is representing Cox, released a statement saying they hope the Texas Supreme Court ultimately rules in Cox's favor.

  + stars: | 2022-05-09 | by ( Katie Balevic | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +13 min
A retired gynecologist debunked common mistruths spread about the procedure by abortion opponents. While abortion has been a top issue among voters, McNabb said there is still a wealth of misinformation about the procedure. "Abortion does not cause breast cancer," McNabb said, noting that abortion opponents often base that argument on discredited studies. Another common claim is that medical abortions, which utilize Mifepristone and Misoprostol pills, are not safe for women. "The risk of abortions go up from first trimester up to the limit of when someone would perform an abortion," McNabb said.
