The battle over a commonly used abortion medication is likely heading to the U.S. Supreme Court.
"We're trying to be as clear as possible; let people know abortion is still legal in the majority of states in this country," said Amy Hagstrom Miller, president and CEO of Whole Woman's Health."Texans can still have abortions in other states where they're still legal, including New Mexico."
"Everybody we have seen in New Mexico has been from Texas, except one or two patients who came from Louisiana and Arizona," Hagstrom Miller said. Overnight a federal appeals court blocked part of that ruling, declaring that women can still get the drug, but with restrictions -- not by mail and only up to seven weeks into a pregnancy instead of 10.
Jillson says she predicts the Supreme Court will likely keep the drug legal but reign in easy access. She says Republicans would pay a heavy political price if the drug is outlawed.
