As someone who is trying to have their first child through IVF, this stuff scares the shit out of me.
Abortion prevents births! Women aren't going to want to risk getting pregnant if they don't have that safety net if things go wrong.

Yeah, not so sure it's a good idea to try and have a kid for at least the next four years.
Cool, we can add women with pregnancy complications to the list of mass murders he'll be responsible for.
But...but...muh states rights!
Reposting my comment from another thread:
For anyone that needs this information, you can (currently) order abortion medicine (mifepristone and misoprostol) online in any state. I did it a few days ago and it was stupid easy to do. I'm not pregnant, but I wanted to order some as a just-in-case for myself or others.
The Plan C website has a great list of websites you can order from if you're not pregnant. It costs about $150 and some offer financial assistance if you need it. But please do it NOW while you still can.
I ordered one from Aid access and one from safe choice. Both asked a few questions that didn't ask for personal information or ID. They mostly just need an email, address to send it, and a credit/debit card to pay.
Some clarifications from other posters that may be helpful: this medication will keep up to 2 years when stored in a cool dry place. This is also different than plan B. Plan B is usable up to 120 hours after sex and does not require prescription. Where as mifepristone and misoprostol require a prescription (obtainable through these sites) and are usable up to 13 weeks of gestation. You may be able to obtain them at your local pharmacy with a prescription in a legal state (for now).
Good luck out there everyone.
