Key Takeaways
According to a report by the Guttmacher Institute, fewer Americans traveled out of state for abortions in 2024 compared to the previous year, despite the increasing restrictions on abortion access in many states. The data indicates a 10% decrease in out-of-state abortion seekers, attributed to a combination of factors including the expansion of telehealth services for abortion medication, increased support from abortion funds, and the opening of new clinics in states with more permissive laws. However, the report also highlights ongoing challenges, such as long wait times and financial burdens for those who still need to travel, underscoring the continued impact of restrictive state laws on abortion access.
