Louisiana has classified the abortion pill as a controlled dangerous substance.
00:06
The state has classified two abortion pills,
00:09
miSOPROStol and Mifepristone. Hopefully,
00:13
I pronounce those right in the same category as addictive drugs like
00:17
opioids. All drugs are said,
00:19
I'm glad that you had to do that because I I was
00:21
like Google, how do you say this?
00:23
But anyways, this makes possession of the pill without a prescription
00:26
a crime and is punishable by up to 10 years in
00:29
prison. However, pregnant women cannot be prosecuted.
00:33
So it sounds like it's more of like making the pills difficult
00:35
to access and you know,
00:37
citing fear amongst providers.
00:40
So Louisiana already has a near total ban on abortions.
00:44
Even in cases of rape or incest,
00:47
abortion providers can be jailed for 15 years.
00:52
It's crazy because again,
00:53
remember back in March,
00:54
like these abortion pills are making the news because was it
00:57
Walgreen and CBS would start selling them.
01:00
more fear of people trying to access them.
01:02
It's like por por porque.
01:06
Yeah, they're trying to come through all like sides to like
01:09
stop them. But I mean,
01:12
it's crazy. So we'll see what updates we have in the
Series
