WASHINGTON, July 2 — Abortion has become unavailable or severely restricted in a dozen US states since last week’s Supreme Court ruling, abortion rights activists said Friday.

“That number is expected to grow in coming days, weeks and months until we reach approximately 26 states across the country,” he said. “More than half the country will ban abortion.” The ACLU, Planned Parenthood Federation of America and Center for Reproductive Rights said they have taken legal action to block abortion bans in 11 states: Arizona, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, Oklahoma, Florida, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia.

“But the reality is the 24 states which we hope to see keep it legal over the next few months will never be able to absorb the needs of the entire country,” she said.
