Were about to take you inside what may become the last Abortion Clinic in louisiana. Struggling to survive at the center of the Supreme Court case that could affect access to abortion across the country. Heres abcs gloria riviera. My body my decision reporter rallying cries of a cultural divide. Every single life is precious reporter a womans access to an abortion, now before a conservativeleaning Supreme Court for the First Time Since President Trump took office. What matters is that we are loud and weheard coicnps of the Supreme Court. We have a lot of work to do. A lot of work to do in fighting for unborn children. Reporter Kathleen Pitman has just stood before the highest court no the land. Shes here to fight in a case that could set the precedent for the entire nation, a ruling many feel could weaken roe versus wade. I cannot tell you how moving it is to see all of you here. All of these faces rallying behind us, behind a small, independent clinic in northwest louisiana. [cheers and applause] reporter here, 1200 miles away from our Nations Capital in shreveport, louisiana, the real battle unfolds. Wicked, unimaginable reporter pitmans small clinic at risk of closing if its forced to comply with a new state law restrictingerrm artioe outside, a scene the clinic staff is all too familiar with. Protesters lined up, many who believe abortions are a sin. Its hard. You know, to see women go in here. And come in here with their child in their womb and then leave without it. Reporter volunteers double as body guards, escorting the women from the parking lot into the clinic. I put it on our umbrella for all of the protesters to see while im shielding the patients. Good morning, thank you for calling pitman medical. How can i help you . Reporter inside the clinic is inundated with calls. I think i need to write my obit. Reporter her staff provides Birth Control and consultations to 3,000 women in louisiana alone. The women we see here, i would say between 70 or 80 live at or below the poverty level. They are women without means. They have transportation to consider. Reporter and then there are the out of state patients. I would say about 27 are from texas. We also see women from arkansas, mississippi, oklahoma. Occasionally nebraska. Reporter as one of the only clinics in the region, pitman and all the staffers feel like they are the last line of densnt women. Whats at stake . It is highly possible that all but one, if not all clinics will close in louisiana. Its not just this case. While this case directly affects all the clinics in louisiana, its going to affect other states as well. Reporter the weight of that responsibility not lost on anyone. I think everybody who works here has a commitment. And a reason for being here. Everybody has their own story. I was part of that faction of women whos been fed misinformation their whole life and hasnt been given accurate Birth Control information and what they taught me when i came here, this is how you take control of your reproductive health. I enjoy helping the women and hearing their stories, i do, and being able to givbaus bei ha a baby at 16. And im sure if my mom knew something about this place, maybe, just maybe she would have brought me here. Reporter this clinics path to the Supreme Court began in 2017 when Hope Medical Group sued louisiana after the tstate passed a law requiring doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges to hospitals. There isnt always a hospital nearby. Another reason is these privileges often require a certain number of admissions in each calendar year. And very early abortions are extreme l extremely safe procedures. And they may not need to have admissions. Admitting privileges sound good on paper, but theyre really a catch22. Reporter travis is one of the lawyers representing the medical group before the court. If this law goes into effect all the doctors at Hope Medical Clinic will be put out of business and the clinic will close. They need to be able to regulate and protect womens health. And this law does that. Reporter elizabeth murle argued on behalf of the state of louisiana. One side is saying these doctors cannot get admitting privileges. You are saying no, i think they could. Why . Im not saying it. This idea that all the clinics are going to close, that they cant get privileges, thats all simply not accurate. Reporter why have not other clinics opened up knowing the regulations or knowing what will be asked of them, to have these admitting privileges . I cant speak to what clinics think or doctors think, there are a couple thousand doctors in the state of louisiana that are eligible under the law, right now. They have admitting privileges. They have the residency requirements. They could contract with any of the open clinics now. Reporter so when you see the stat, 1 of all abortions result in complications, what is your reaction . I think its wrong. Black and white just wrong. I think its inaccurate. What i can say is i think Women Deserve to be safe. Reporter the last time the Supreme Court took up abortion was in 2016, striking down the state of texas attempt to regulate abortion providers. We are reporter but the courts bench is different now. In the past two years, President Trump added two conservative justices, neil gorsuch and brett kavanaugh. A lot of courts have said you know what . I think the legal landscape has really changed and they have moved to restrict. Reporter louisiana is just the latest of several states to pass laws that abortion advocates say make it harder for women to access safe abortions. Nightline was on the ground last year in alabama when the state passed a law making it a crime for doctors to perform abortions, causing an uproar across the country, even inspiring celebrities to speak out. Who are you to tell me what to do with my body . Who are you to make that decision . Reporter then again in missouri, when new regulations threatened the states last Abortion Clinic. One of the strategies of the antichoice movement for a long time is to try and find ways to chip away access to abortion care and through the process of what we call regulations or targeted regulation of abortion providers. Reporter laws like these are becoming a new reality, impacting women in 24 states. I think youve seen kind of grass roots momentum of folks across the country going oh, my gosh, this is a reality. We could be the first postroe generation. Reporter thats why actresses like Busy Philipps are speaking out sharing her own abortion story. Were at a critical moment in government, truly. The question becomes, are we going to uphold the law . Are we just going to throw everything out . We have to believe women. We have to trust women. Reporter its a belief shared bit Hope Medical Groups staff. I plan to eat lots of chocolate tonight for energy. Well need it tomorrow. Reporter back home in louisiana they rally morale for the road ahead. This is to hope, the women we serve, the center for reproductive rights. Reporter this small group at the epicenter of a big fight reminding themselves of what matters most. What we need to do is concentrate on the here and now, take care of the patients currently in our care and make sure they have everything they need and really hope for the best. The Supreme Court wont hand down its decision until june. Reporter up next, laughing out loud, why the crowd cant get enough of the headturning comic. I have moderate to severe pnow, theres skyrizi. Things are getting clearer, yeah i feel free to bare my skin yeah thats all me. Nothing and me go hand in hand nothing on my skin thats my new plan. Nothing is everything. Keep your skin clearer with skyrizi. 3 out of 4 people achieved 90 clearer skin at 4 months. Of those, nearly 9 out of 10 sustained it through 1 year. And skyrizi is 4 doses a year, after 2 starter doses. I see nothing in a different way and its my moment so i just gotta say nothing is everything skyrizi may increase your risk of infections and lower your ability to fight them. Before treatment your doctor should check you for infections and tuberculosis. Tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms such as fevers, sweats, chills, muscle aches or coughs, or if you plan to or recently received a vaccine. Nothing is everything ask your dermatologist about skyrizi. howling wind howling wind groans hmph. food grunting menacingly when the food you love doesnt love you back, stay smooth and fight heartburn fast with tums smoothies.
