A year after the U.S. Supreme Court ended a nationwide right to abortion, it is mostly not available in a swath of states.But in most places where it is still widely accessible, there are new protections for access.That provides ways to obtain abortions — though not everyone can access them.Tina Marshall, the founder of the Black Abortion Defense League, talks about her organization's mission to assist women in getting abortions in Charlotte, N.C. as a recently passed state bill taking effect on July 1 will ban most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy.The June 2022 ruling in Dobbs v.
