    Why do I have a feeling that one of these cases is going to make it’s way up to the Supreme Court in short order, leading to a nationwide ban?

    Sadly, the article doesn’t name groups offering out-of-staters shelter for abortions. I did a quick web search and found articles rather than orgs. Planned Parenthood came up but was seeking donations.

    I’m offering not money but a sofa. My partner and I have a spacious apartment and two awesome kitties to help anyone through a difficult time. We’re in the Bay Area. I wish I could add our names to a list. Guess this is the best I can do without diving in more than I already have. I wish the internet and search didn’t suck now.

      Try The Auntie Network. It’s only on Facebook and Reddit unfortunately (as far as I can tell).

      Just don’t mix it up with the website/app, which is a matchmaking service.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    That issue has been closely watched by advocates on both sides of the abortion debate as red states across the country ban or severely limit access to the procedure in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe.

    Thompson, appointed to the bench by President Jimmy Carter, wrote that a patient’s right to travel was “inextricably bound up” with those groups.

    Even before the Supreme Court overturned Roe in 2022, abortion rights groups warned that some states might attempt to limit out-of-state travel for the procedure.

    Since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, nearly two dozen states have banned or heavily limited access to abortion.

    Florida’s six-week abortion ban took effect last week, for instance, cutting off access to the procedure in most of the southern United States.

    The Supreme Court this year is considering a suit by conservative doctors and advocates who say the Food and Drug Administration overstepped its authority by expanding access to the abortion pill mifepristone.
