What Julie Burkhardt had been working to build represents one side of the fight. Her organization built this clinic, the first in conservative Wyoming, offering surgical abortions. A week before it was set to open earlier this year, it was set on fire.

What will that mean for our staffing? What does that mean for our budget?'" she said.
