By True North Research | Medication abortion has become the most popular form of abortion in the U.S. post- Dobbs , providing potentially lifesaving access to people residing in states with abortion bans in place. Because of this, the antiabortion right-wing machine’s dogged attacks on mifepristone should be seen for what they are: an attempt at a backdoor national abortion ban.

By Ms. Editors | From its inception in 1972, Ms . has been at the forefront in tackling some of the biggest challenges in the fight for gender equality.

The rule was based on a federal law called the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, known as EMTALA, which requires emergency rooms to treat and stabilize all patients regardless of their ability to pay.
