Planned Parenthood gears up for abortion battle

On the heels of Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court, Planned Parenthood just announced it's stepping up its efforts to expand abortion access in states. The group will put a particular focus on expanding access in states where abortion is seen as likely to remain legal and connecting women via telemedicine to medication abortion. The court now has a majority of anti-abortion justices.

"We know that we’ll need an ironclad network of states and providers across the country where abortion will still be legal and accessible, no matter what happens at the Supreme Court," Dr. Amy Whitaker, medical director at Planned Parenthood of Illinois, said in a statement.
