Planned Parenthood of Illinois said there has been a 10-fold increase in the number of Wisconsin residents coming to Illinois for abortion access since the Supreme Court decision.

Last Thursday when she was providing care, she said the majority of patients and doctors providing abortions at the facility were from Wisconsin. Prior to Dobbs, Wisconsin law created barriers to accessing abortion care, even while it was legal, King said.
