Planned Parenthood’s President Thinks Abortion Is Headed Back to the Supreme Court
SK: This North Dakota law comes right after another really restrictive law in Arkansas. Are these becoming a trend? Are you expecting more restrictions like these?
CR: What we’re seeing is a couple of states where the most extreme right fringe has taken over these state legislatures. You have a state like North Dakota where the governor has now chosen to side with the extreme right wing over [the state’s] women.
These two states are outliers, but it is chilling to think that for women in America, your rights now depend on your Zip code. I’m hearing lots of outrage over the airwaves from women and men across the country, that this could happen in 2013.
