Surviving and Suffering: Reflections on a Post-Roe America

Tammi Kromenaker, the director of Red River Women's Clinic, a North Dakota-based abortion clinic, discusses how her clinic survived in a post-Roe world after the Supreme Court's Dobbs ruling overturned the constitutional right to abortion. Kromenaker moved her clinic to Moorhead, Minnesota, and purchased a new building with the help of a GoFundMe campaign. She also talks about the challenges of sustaining the clinic financially and the survivor's guilt she feels for being able to keep her clinic open while others may have to close.

North Dakota Supreme Court maintains temporary block on abortion ban.

The North Dakota Supreme Court has ruled that the state's abortion ban will remain blocked while a lawsuit over its constitutionality proceeds. The ban was designed to take effect once the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The Red River Women's Clinic, the state's only abortion clinic, shut its doors this summer and moved operations to Moorhead, Minnesota, where abortion remains legal. The clinic's owner is still pursuing the lawsuit. Thirteen states are now enforcing bans on abortion at any point in pregnancy and one more — Georgia — bans it once cardiac activity can be detected, or at about six weeks' gestation.
