The kind of coordination that New York State has effected with law enforcement and abortion providers should be happening in every community and every state.

The adjectives we use to describe pregnancy, like unplanned, unwanted, or unintended, don’t help either side of this conflict understand the 3.4 million “unintended” pregnancies that happen each year or why half of end in abortion.

Listening to a woman talk about her decision makes the public abortion debate seem irrelevant. A discourse that embodied women's experiences would change the abortion debate and help women who are isolated in their decision-making.
