A divided Supreme Court seemed skeptical Wednesday that federal law can require
hospitals to provide emergency abortion care in states with strict bans on the
procedure in the latest legal battle over access to abortion since the high
court overturned Roe v. Wade nearly two years ago.

U.S. ABORTION ACCESS, REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS

Tracking abortion access in the United States: Since the Supreme Court struck
down Roe v. Wade, the legality of abortion has been left to individual states.
The Washington Post is tracking states where abortion is legal, banned or under
threat.

Abortion and the election: Voters in about a dozen states could decide the fate
of abortion rights with constitutional amendments on the ballot in a pivotal
election year. Biden supports legal access to abortion, and he has encouraged
Congress to pass a law that would codify abortion rights nationwide. After
months of mixed signals about his position, Trump said the issue should be left
to states. Here’s how Trump’s abortion stance has shifted over the years.

New study: The number of women using abortion pills to end their pregnancies on
their own without the direct involvement of a U.S.-based medical provider rose
sharply in the months after the Supreme Court eliminated a constitutional right
to abortion, according to new research.

Abortion pills: The Supreme Court seemed unlikely to limit access to the
abortion pill mifepristone. Here’s what’s at stake in the case and some key
moments from oral arguments. For now, full access to mifepristone will remain in
place. Here’s how mifepristone is used and where you can legally access the
abortion pill.
