Interstate travel up in Georgia two years after 6-week abortion ban took effect

This week marks two years since Georgia’s abortion restrictions took effect.

And while the state’s abortion law, H.B. 481, continues to be challenged in the courts, more Georgians are traveling out of state — and traveling farther — to access the procedure, according to an abortion research group.

By the time Trenity found out she was pregnant, she was already too late to get an abortion in Georgia. Her pregnancy was beyond the state’s six-week cut-off.
