The Hope Medical Group for Women is still open — but there's a waiting list and a court hearing on Friday that could change everything.
Yes, federal protections for abortion had been overturned, she said. The clinic was still open — but there's a waiting list and a court hearing on Friday that could change everything, she added.
Like many states Louisiana has a trigger law designed to immediately halt abortions if Roe is overturned. But nearly two weeks after the June 24 ruling, the Shreveport clinic was still open and providing abortions to patients from all over Louisiana, as well as states like neighboring Texas and Mississippi.
Now it's hard to figure out what to tell patients, she said. She used to be able to advise them clearly on when they'd be able to schedule their abortion and now she can't promise anything. She can direct them to websites and hopefully funds that can help them pay for travel to get an out-of-state abortion.
“If we’re fighting for one day, then we’re fighting for one day," she said. “Some of these people really need that one day.”
