Since Dr. Caitlin Bernard performed the girl’s abortion, her face has been plastered on right-wing media outlets. She's been targeted by conservatives, including Indiana attorney general Todd Rokita

According to the Columbus Dispatch, the girl had to travel from her home state of Ohio — where abortion is banned after six weeks, without exceptions for rape — to Indiana in order to terminate, highlighting the grim reality of the reproductive health-care landscape now that the Supreme Court has revoked abortion protections.
“It’s honestly been very hard for me, for my family,” Bernard told NPR. “It’s hard to understand why a political figure, a prominent figure in the state, would want to come after physicians who are helping patients every single day in their state.” “One of us is the state attorney general, and one of us is a physician — and it’s very clear who is being intimidated in this situation,” Bernard told NPR. “I think it’s important for us as providers to feel safe working in the state of Indiana. I think it’s important for physicians to know that when they follow the law and when they take care of patients in need of care, that they can do so free of persecution, free of harassment.” But in the current climate, that’s not necessarily the case.
“I think we’re at a time in our country where people are starting to realize the impact of these anti-abortion laws,” Bernard told CBS. She hopes it’s finally becoming clear “what the real-life implications are for people who need abortion care. I think people realize that that is actually not what they intended. That is not what they want for children, for women, to be put in these situations of life-threatening conditions, of traumatic pregnancies.
