With the influx of abortion clinic patients has come more customers at local restaurants, booked up hotels and other early measures of economic change, particularly in the Midwest and the West
— just one week after POLITICO published the draft Supreme Court opinion that foreshadowed the end of federal abortion protections — to open a clinic in Carbondale, Ill.
For Carbondale, a college town of 22,000 people, geography had a lot to do with Choices’ new site: Illinois is bordered by five states that all have abortion laws more restrictive than its own, turning the Democratic-controlled state into a destination for those seeking the procedure sinceCarbondale is just one of many blue-state towns near red-state borders that some abortion rights supporters didn’t believe could sustain a clinic long-term ifwere still standing.
When Choices announced plans to expand into Illinois last spring, it highlighted how the location was just three hours from Memphis and had an Amtrak stop. The clinic is also about an hour’s drive from similarly sized cities in Missouri and Kentucky. Planned Parenthood, which operates in Illinois as well as along other border states across the country, has seen an “exponential increase” of patients in those stateline communities, according to Lauren Kokum, director of affiliate communications at Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
