The State of Abortion: One Year After Landmark Decisions.
TL;DR
Colorado has become a magnet for out-of-state patients seeking abortions due to its efforts to protect access to the procedure, including passing a bill to cement legal abortion into state law and preventing local governments from passing their own restrictions. The state has seen a major increase in out-of-state patients, with Texans making up the largest share. Colorado has also set restrictions on how crisis pregnancy centers can advertise their services, including making claims that they can reverse a medication abortion. Supporters of abortion rights plan to put a question before voters in 2024 to add the right to abortion access into the state constitution.
