  • Anti-Choice Violence and Intimidation
    Anti-Choice Violence and Intimidation A campaign of violence, vandalism, and intimidation is endangering providers and patients and curtailing the availability of abortion services. Since 1993, eight clinic workers – including four doctors, two clinic employees, a clinic escort, and a security guard – have been murdered in the United States.1 Seventeen attempted murders have also occurred since 1991.2 In fact, opponents of choice have directed more than 6,400 reported acts of violence against abortion providers since 1977, including bombings, arsons, death threats, kidnappings, and assaults, as well as more than 175,000 reported acts of disruption, including bomb threats and harassing calls.3 The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE) provides federal protection against the unlawful and often violent tactics used by abortion opponents. Peaceful picketing and protest is not prohibited and is explicitly and fully protected by the law.4 State clinic protection laws in 16 states and the District of Columbia, as well as general statutes prohibiting violence, provide additional protection.5 Although the frequency of some types of clinic violence declined after the 1994 enactment of FACE, violence at reproductive-health centers is far from being eradicated.6 Vigorous enforcement of clinic-protection laws against those who use violence and threats is essential to protecting the lives and well-being of women and health-care providers. Abortion Providers and Other Health Professionals Face the Threat of Murder MURDERS: Since 1993, eight people have been murdered for helping women exercise their constitutionally protected right to choose.7 . 2009: The Murder of Dr. George Tiller.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 1. This civil rights case pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 challenges Ohio’s continuing assault on the right of women to exercise reproductive freedom and its efforts to shutter the last two ambulatory surgery facilities that perform abortions in Southwest Ohio. If both facilities must shut their doors, abortion services in Southwest Ohio will be virtually eliminated overnight. 2. Such efforts are part of a deliberate strategy to severely reduce access to abortion by imposing and enforcing laws and regulations that do not promote women’s health or any other valid state interest. At the beginning of 2013, there were 14 clinics in Ohio providing surgical abortion.

A painted semi-circle extends 15 feet from the clinic’s door. Under the City’s buffer-zone law, the counselors may not speak—or even pray—in this zone because the City views Petitioners’ message of hope, personal concern, and assistance as advocacy or demonstra- tion. Yet the City allows others to speak face-to-face in the zone for nearly any other reason. Because the buffer zone burdens and disfavors the counselors’ speech, they sued. Confronting the City’s unmistakably invalid ordinance, the Third Circuit unilaterally construed the law to prohibit prayer or generic advocacy but to allow counseling. This exacerbated a 7-3 circuit split over whether federal courts have authority to limit state laws to avoid constitutional flaws.

  • Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers, Abortion Clinic Regulation
    GUTTMACHER INSTITUTE As of OCTOBER 3, 2014 S TATE POLICIES IN BRIEF Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers BACKGROUND: In the years immediately following the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, several states moved to impose strict regulations on abortion clinics, beyond what is necessary to ensure patients’ safety. Since many of these requirements were struck down by lower federal courts starting in the early 1980s, states moved on to other ways to restrict access to abortion, such as limitations on public funding. Efforts to use clinic regulation to limit access to abortion, rather than to make its provision safer resurfaced in the 1990s and have gained steam since 2010. While all abortion regulations apply to abortion clinics, some go so far as to apply to physicians’ offices where abortions are performed or even to sites where only medication abortion is administered. Most requirements apply states’ standards for ambulatory surgical centers to abortion clinics, even though surgical centers tend to provide more invasive and risky procedures and use higher levels of sedation. These standards often include requirements for the physical plant, such as room size and corridor width, beyond what is necessary to ensure patient safety in the event of an emergency. They also often require that facilities maintain relationships with hospitals, provisions that add nothing to existing patient protections while granting hospitals effective veto power over whether an abortion provider can exist. Finally, several states mandate that clinicians performing abortions have relationships with local hospitals, requirements that do little to improve patient care but that set standards that may be impossible for providers to meet.

  • List of Abortion Clinics in Canada (And Some Hospitals)
    List of Abortion Clinics in Canada (and some hospitals) Also: Hotlines, Funds, Doulas, and Support Services Compiled by Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada This is a complete list of clinics across Canada, including dedicated abortion clinics or women’s health clinics at hospitals (starting page 4). Hospitals are not generally listed unless they are the only facility providing abortions in that province or territory (but full info is provided for Alberta, New Brunswick, and Saskatchewan). Around 90-100 hospitals across Canada provide abortions, counting CLSCs in Quebec (centre local de services communautaires). In addition, some family doctors and primary care clinics prescribe medical abortions; contact the Action Canada hotline for information. New: This list now includes abortion doula services and other abortion support services, such as free rides to a clinic. See page 3. Most clinics should provide both surgical and medical abortions, even if our listing below does not mention medical abortion. Medical abortions are done using Mifegymiso, a drug combination of mifepristone and misoprostol. An ultrasound may be required. Gestational limits are indicated where known and are usually dated from LMP (last menstrual period). Gestational age (GA) refers to the current age of the embryo/fetus, while LMP is simply the time lapsed since the start of last menstrual period – GA may be up to 2 weeks less than LMP. Funding: All services are fully funded unless otherwise specified. However, medical abortions are funded only for some patient groups in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nunavut, and the Northern Territories. These groups generally include hospital patients (including at hospital-based abortion clinics), people on social assistance, First Nations, prisoners, and military personnel.
