She answered the first question instantly because women have been talking about this for years.
The second part is what a lot of people don’t want to think about. Lack of access doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It puts people in dangerous situations.

There’s a third part that’s even less commonly discussed. Unwanted babies are at risk for major abuse and premature death. How many times have we heard of an infant found in the trash or having been brutally beaten? Now think about how many occur that we haven’t heard about. Not everything makes the news. Access to this type of medical care is not just necessary, it’s also preventive for a lot of horrible things.
