Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt signed a bill into law this week that bans almost all abortions in the state, starting at fertilization.
that prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus. According to the text, abortion “does not include the use, prescription, administration, procuring or selling of Plan B, morning-after pills, or any other type of contraception or emergency contraception.”
Under the Oklahoma law, state officials can’t bring charges. Instead, private citizens can sue abortion providers or anyone who “aids and abets” an abortion, which could include someone who drives a pregnant person to an abortion clinic. If the lawsuit is successful, people can receive $10,000 or more in damages.
But abortion providers have warned that the ban in Oklahoma will continue to stress the region. After the ban in Texas, many women seeking abortions traveled across the border to receive care. And the day after the 6-week ban in Oklahoma went into effect, the Tulsa Women’s Reproductive Clinic was forced to cancel 35 appointments and send home 10 patients who had pregnancies that surpassed the gestation limit.
