The Abortion Access Report 3/18/2026

Today’s abortion news is a reminder that the chaos isn’t random—it’s coordinated. From the DOJ playing political delay games, to American extremism going global, to prosecutors straight-up ignoring the law to charge patients, the strategy is clear: stall, spread, and scare.

The Headline: DOJ Quietly Pleads With Another State to STFU About Its Anti-Abortion Agenda

TLDR:

⏸️ Trump Asks Missouri To PAUSE Abortion Pill Suit ‘Til It Suits HIM
After asking Louisiana to slow their roll on challenging FDA approval of mifepristone, the DOJ has now asked the court to pause The Show Me State’s case too. If you think that’s fishy as fuck, you would be correct.

🥊 Why Are The Anti-Abobo Girls Fighting?
The DOJ CLAIMS the reason is that the cases confuse their own “review” 🙄of mife that’s already underway. But we know it’s just a stalling tactic to push any decision past the midterms so they can unleash the kraken of anti-abortion fuckery without fear of taking hits in the polls.

The Headline: How US groups are driving a new generation of anti-abortion activism in the UK

TLDR:

🫖 UK Youth Are Fangirling for USA’s Bodily Fascism
The kids across the pond are not all right, they’re alt-right, and they’re coming for abortion. Younger folks in the UK have decided that the hottest American import is our loud-ass street preacher fanaticism to decimate abortion access. They’re dumping their tea time tactics into the harbor of full-throttled reproductive authoritarianism.

🌭 Kirkland Brand Extremism
Charlie Kirk is the international grindset coach for extremism. His shameless crusade against abortion is peak inspo to budding misogynists around the world. They see us criminalizing pregnancy, harassing patients, and stalking clinics, and think: I’ll have what he’s having.

🧐 Pip Pip, Cheerio to Bodily Autonomy!
The US campaign to ban abortion was never meant to stay local. Orgs with bottomless funding and missionary energy are inspiring a fresh crop of baby trolls to keep patients shamed and healthcare destroyed. Brilliant.

The Headline: Police Charge Woman With Murder for Allegedly Taking Abortion Pill, Even Though State Law Says They Can’t

TLDR:

🚔 Georgia Ignores Law To Charge Woman With MURDER For Taking Pills
A Georgia woman has been hit with HOMICIDE charges after allegedly taking the abortion medication misoprostol. Cuz who cares that Georgia law explicitly says YOU CANNOT CHARGE A PERSON FOR SELF-MANAGING THEIR OWN ABORTION. When you have a will to jail people for pregnancy outcomes, you find a way!

💊 Making Misoprostol into Murder
The abortion pill mifepristone has been the main target of cuntservative attacks, so going after someone who took only misoprostol​​—a medication that’s also used to treat ulcers—is particularly egregious. Shield laws have been protecting out-of-state docs from prosecution, so conception cops are just saying “fuck it” and instead going right for the PATIENTS who, again, THE LITERAL LAW says you CANNOT charge.

⛔ Don’t Let Them Normalize This Shit
This is the beta-testing stage for the world they want us to live in. They are flouting their own law and demonizing patients to test the limits of public acceptance. We cannot let them. Be loud as fuck about this. Need to know your rights? The baddies at If When How and www.StopPolicingPregnancy.org have legal resources and up-to-date information on how to be pregnant in this reproductive hellscape.

This is what escalation looks like: delay the truth, export the playbook, and punish people anyway—even when the law says you can’t. We see it, we name it, and we don’t let it slide. Stay loud, stay informed, and keep fighting.
