Episode Details

Tennessee lawmakers concluded their 2026 session without addressing the states strict abortion ban, despite the Supreme Courts temporary halt on an appeals court decision that would have restricted access to the abortion pill mifepristone. The states law primarily targets providers, but access remains open through out-of-state telehealth and mailed pills. Despite lawmakers attempts to strengthen the ban, efforts to modify exceptions or protect providers in emergencies failed. If mifepristone becomes unavailable, providers can switch to misoprostol, which has side effects but can still be used for other health issues.
