Louisiana Governor Signs Law Criminalizing Abortion Pills

Louisiana Governor signed a bill classifying abortion pills as controlled dangerous substances, drawing support from anti-abortion advocates and concern from medical professionals and abortion-rights activists. The law, which criminalizes non-consensual use of these medications, aims to protect women but may hinder access to essential medical treatments. Critics argue the reclassification is not scientifically justified and could negatively impact healthcare, especially in rural areas. President Biden condemned the bill, linking it to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
