South Dakota Governor Says State Will Ban Abortion Pills Prescribed Online

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem announced her administration will ban appointments with abortion providers who prescribe pills over the internet following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade last week.

In an interview on Sunday morning, the Republican governor told CBS News that she introduced a bill to ban telemedicine appointments in a bid from barring women from obtaining prescription abortion pills through the mail and online. South Dakota on Friday enacted a trigger law that bans most abortions—making the procedure a felony—after Roe v. Wade was scrapped.

“These are very dangerous medical procedures,” Noem told the outlet. “We don’t believe it should be available because it is a dangerous situation for an individual without being medically supervised by a physician.”

Noem, in her interview, echoed a line in Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion, saying the Constitution “does not give women the right to an abortion” and that the “power to make these decisions really goes to each individual state.”…(Excerpt from The Epoch Times)
