More than two years after most abortions became illegal in Alabama, the West Alabama Women’s Center still fields at least five calls a day from women seeking to end a pregnancy.
The staff has to tell callers they no longer provide abortion services.
“And then when they’re told `No,’ they ask, `All right. Well, where do I get one?” Robin Marty, the center’s executive director, told USA TODAY. “And that’s when we can’t say anything.”
The center is afraid of triggering an investigation from Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, who has threatened to bring criminal conspiracy charges against organizations that help Alabamians get the procedure out of state.
