• 30% of women in the USA do not have access to abortion care.
• Many people have to travel to get an abortion or order pills online.

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned in the summer of 2022, almost 30% of women in the USA have had no access to abortion care.

Texas, Idaho, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia have all banned abortions, but people in these states still can find ways of accessing a termination.

Many do so by ordering abortion pills online, while others are forced to travel for an abortion.

This list details the states where it is hardest to access the care many people need.
