In many of those states, particularly in the American South, Republicans have moved quickly to restrict or outlaw a woman’s right to choose following last year’s US Supreme Court decision, the landmark 1973 ruling that kept abortion legal across America for half a century. Walgreens’ decision followed a letter signed by attorney generals from 21 separate states threatening the company with the possibility of legal action.
Mifepristone – which is also available in the UK – was approved for use to end pregnancies in the US more than 20 years ago. In light of last year’s Supreme Court ruling and the crackdown on abortion that followed, pills are now believed to be responsible for more than half the abortions taking place in America.
