A ban won't stop abortion pill access, telehealth providers say

Two developments often get lost in the public's perception of the abortion wars. One is that the number of abortions in the U.S. has increased dramatically year over year since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, according to the Society of Family Planning's latest #WeCount report. By December, 29% of abortions were through telehealth. The second is that, because the mailing of abortion pills has become so widespread in the post-Dobbs era, abortion opponents may simply be unable to stop it.
