'I want to believe that it’s a vocal minority that has a microphone right now, talking about denying care to people. I think Kansas is such a great proof point of that.' —Laura Terrill
— but the state’s Supreme Court has ruled that Texas can enforce its 1925 abortion ban in the meantime.
We wanted to explore a different part of the country and take things at a little bit slower of a pace and try a new professional experience. At the time, Montana had a pro-reproductive health care governor and an anti-reproductive health care legislature. So in many respects, it was purple. The governor wielded his veto pen with great consistency around reproductive health care legislation.
She proceeded to share with me and my sister stories from our family about women who became pregnant and didn’t want to be — this was before Roe. A couple of women in my family tried to self-manage their own abortions, and both of them almost died as a result.in Chicago, and a friend of hers said there was a bust there, don’t go. So she sought the counsel of someone in her community and almost bled to death.
He absolutely just took me to town. I could not get a word in edgewise, he got me all twisted up on my own words and I was just rageful about my inability to spar with him and be able to articulate my point of view. In that moment, I decided that I wanted to major in political science. I wanted to understand the rules of government and the players and how the systems worked in order to be able to effect change.
And yet, there are these forces, these individuals, these anti-reproductive health care extremists, that are denying people their basic human rights. That dichotomy is pretty hard to get my head around. PPST has been around since 1939 — 83 years of providing health care services, even before Roe, and we didn’t start providing abortion services until the 1990s.
We do provide a full range of health care services, including, most importantly, access to birth control, contraception and sexual and reproductive health care education. We can provide care in a timely manner, which is so important. Some of our health centers open up at six o’clock in the morning, and a couple days a week stay open until seven o’clock at night so that we can see patients when it’s convenient for them.
